I think my BFF is having her DD baby shower today and didn’t invite me

I would be upset too OP! Me and my squad always include our moms friends!

Honestly, we have zero issues. We spoke just this week and she didn’t mention having any other big plans this weekend. They were clearly speaking about a baby shower, and I clearly heard her DD. Of course it could be someone else’s shower, but what are the chances?

I would think the chances of that are much higher than your best friend leaving you out of a baby shower.

I think maybe this person is OP's BFF, but OP is not their BFF.

I think OP is the BFF of the *mother* of the person who is pregnant.

why would the daughter invite her mom's friend to her baby shower?

Why could you be invited to your best friends daughters shower? None of my mothers or MIL’s friends were invited to my shower.

No offense OP + not trying to be snarky (really‼️) but this post sounds like it is entirely made up.

This, it is probably a situation where the person hosting has limited space and DD wants to maximize space for her friends. Your BFF didn’t tell you bc it’s not her choice and she didn’t want to hurt your feelings.

This. The DD wants her friends there, not her mom's friends. I'd be a little hurt too, but remember that it's not your BFF who's deciding the guest list.

In my world, it was my mom’s best friend who threw me a shower.

This isn’t a party for your “BFF” (how old are you, by the way), this is a party for her DAUGHTER. So the daughter probably doesn’t want pushy, nosy eavesdropper old lady at her party. She wants her friends, her peers.

Squad?

I think a 17 year old wrote this post from her imagination.

Sounds trollish to me, OP...

+1 And what person the age of a grandmother uses the word BFF. Go away troll.

Or the word butt dial.

I just went to my cousin's baby shower, that she held at her mother's place for convenience. The guests were limited to my cousin's best friends, and a couple of relatives like me living close by. My aunt did not invite her best friends!

Depends on their relationship - if the pregnant daughter grew up her whole life knowing her mom's best friend and viewed her as a second mom it would make sense to invite her.

Some people REALLY just can't handle confrontation. Of any kind. And they shy away from anything that could lead to it. Or lead to someone else expressing Big Feelings.

I am like this and would totally have done something like this. I'm sorry!
