if my best friend stole who i thought was the love of my life i wouldn't be friends with her anymore and definately wouldn't be calling him the love of my life. but that's the kind of person i am.
you need to do what you think is right for you. if you forgave them and are still friends with her then, by all means, put on your best little black dress and go to the wedding:)

Send them both to the dark side.
Why are you putting yourself through this. Of course she's rubbing it in. Politely decline. Send them some knives as a wedding gift too, so they can stab each other in the back next.
But them again, weddings are a great place to meet men. Maybe you can get back at her by having a fling with her dad :)

My friend what I gather is that you feel you have forgiven them but at heart you have not- if you did then the thought of their marriage would not bring the feeling to kill yourself - my friend - one thing is very clear that your friend is not a true friend and your ex-love never ever loved you for sure.So forget and forgive the matter - it is not the end of the world - look for a new love who would be sincere to you - and not cheat you- as for the wedding -go and enjoy yourself as if nothing has happened. Best of Luck for the future.God Bless.

Hi..cloud..:)
Surely you had that feeling. Your best friend took your ex love of your life.And you invited to their wedding..how broken your heart..
But if you have a big big big heart..just forget him, cause the facts that he is getting married your best friend.
And if you hard to forget and make you very sad, You may not coming to the wedding.
Calm down yourself and think clearly..It is not teh end of the world..
Piece...:)

If I were you, I won't go to their wedding, no matter what they think or say, it's none of my business. If they ask, just say that it because you don't want to come and that's all. You don't have to pretend that you're alright and forgive and nice,etc.. it's not worth to pretend about anything and lie to yourself for them. i don't say you need to take revenge or what, but they have done things that hurt you and you have the right to do whatever you want to make yourself feel better,,by come or not come to their wedding. As friends, they must consider your feelings too and if I were your friends who wanna be married, I will invite you just for courtesy and give you freedom to choose whether come or not come. I'll understand if you don't come but I don't think I really wanna you to come to my wedding..
Do what you want to do, you don't have any obligation to come. Make yourself feel better.

So what's the hold up, you can't be with him/don't want to be with him? I think you still do want to be with him, or maybe just go back to feeling how you felt when you were with him? You don't really want him back if you're happy for the two that they've found happiness with eachother. Either let this pain you're feeling go or don't even bother going to the wedding.

if it were me I don't think I can forgive them. so it's pretty simple I won't be coming to the wedding regardless invited. but if I said I forgave them, like you said you did, then I will come. You don't want him back anyway, do you? so let her have him and you can go on with your life with someone new.

I would turn the invitation down and forget about it and get on with my life.It is terribly sad when you have to watch a nother woman walk off with your man.Please don't forget one painful thing it is just not her it was him as well.Wish them well with a nice card and maybe a keepsake.That is what I would do anyway good luck with it and let us know what you decide.

Best friend is marrying the ex lover?
Hello Coud_kicker_32,
So what I'm hearing is that your best friend is marrying your ex lover, right? Is this correct? Well my next question would be to ask you what kind of a friend is she. You need to tell her that a real friend would never do something like that. She is not your friend and you should not go there to the wedding to support her. Especially in light of the fact that you still have feelings for him. Personally speaking i think that you need to step on out of the picture and leave both of their a**es alone. Well sorry but I"m in one of my little bad moods today. But I would still feel this way even if I wasn't in a bad mood. That girl isn't your friend honey because a true friend would never do something like that. Wishing you al the best, Happy mylot!

since you can't have your ex, then the best thing you could do since you have forgiven them already is accept the fact that they are getting married and they invited you because you are part of their lives..of course, its really normal that you have still feelings for your ex..for me, attend the wedding not just because you are expected but in order for you to easily accept it and able to move on with the feelings to had for your ex..

Yeah it's really embarrassing to be invited to such a wedding . i don't know why they invite you to be there. It's really hurting , i think. But of course if you don't care him any more it doesn't hurt you too much . Just go there with a much better man !

once upon a time i had a best friend that slept with my boyfriend. i felt so hurt and betrayed. it took me years... like five years... to even entertain the possiblity of speaking with her again and now that we've talked and put the past behind us i feel a lot better about the whole sitution. i commend you for forgiving them for hurting you. it is much healthier then to hold hate in your heart. even so i would absolutely not attend the wedding. give them your blessing and that is that. you shouldn't put yourself in any situation you are not comfortable with and that, my friend, is a very uncomfortable situation!

Honestly i thinks its great you forgave them because that say forgive them for yourself really works and is true. Your in a tough situation i feel like ultimately only you can decided if this is something you can do i personally would burn the wedding down and watch it go a blaze lol. just kidding but i think if you go then that shows you have moved on and are over him and the past pain but if you dont go they will pick up on that as there are still hard feelings hate etc so i hope that helped.

Your stronger than I am in that your friends with them and forgave them. I don't think I could ever do that. I probably wouldn't go to the wedding...I would probably be way uncomfortable and it would probably affect my mood and in turn their celebration.
