[quote=Anonymous]Brother and sister-in-law are hosting a 1-year bash, which is silly, but they like to host and will use any excuse for a get-together, so that's fine. Problem is, the wedding was so weird that I don't know if I want to go.

My future SIL asked me to be a bridesmaid, then rescinded it a week later. I honestly wasn't bothered one way or the other - just a bit confused when she asked me to rejoin a month after that. I declined, my brother got involved, and I ended up doing it, but it was awkward and I've never felt close to her because it was just weird.

Come to find out, her best friend had asked I not be a bridesmaid because I was too fat to wear the dress she'd always dreamed of wearing at SIL's wedding, and SIL had said sure, she would disinvite me. My brother found out and flipped out and insisted I be included. They went with traditional evening gowns to cover my whale body instead of the dreamed-of minidress because of me, and both have been holding a grudge since. And yes, these are educated women in their 30's.

The best friend will obviously be at the anniversary party, and I just...don't want to go. Not because I'm angry or embarrassed, but because it no longer sounds like fun, and life is too short. Would you?[/quote]
