wtf? Sounds like you should have been his best man, but not even an invite? Shady. No excuse. If I were you I'd confront him about it. I have done so in the past and if the person can't handle it then he is really not my best friend.
 
Did you have much contact with him after he moved? How long has he been in California.

Often times when people move away they start a "new" life...new friends, etc.

I don't know how tight your friendship was to him, but just offering advice on what I have experienced. If you guys didn't have much contact after his move or made trips to visit eachother...well then you probably fall into the old friends category and not the current/new friends category. It's part of life...people move and change their circle of friends. It does suck though if you are the one left behind.

Hope you are able to move forward yourself and maybe find some answers.

This, I was best friends with a kid for 18 years but over the past 4 we fell out of contact. He's getting married next month but I felt no obligation to be invited since we haven't spoken except once when I bumped into him at a Best Buy. I feel happy for him but could care less either way tbh.I kinda feel like Doug Stanhope about weddings though, they are just a perfect way for attention whores to feel special for a few months while planning and rarely work out. If your happy with someone why do you need to involve outside sources to make your happiness official?

Holy ____ is that a dead on perfect statement. :clap

turtlepower73, your old friend sounds like some _____ whipped _____, the hell with him. Do you really think he forgot? Nope. I had a buddy that went through the exact same thing ............ the woman he married called all the shots.

eh. different people act in different ways. a buddy of mine's mom passed away and he didn't mention it. found out through other friends. i'd give him a call and congratulate him and wish him well. maybe he'd then invite you.

Dude this girl shows up at Stanhope show in Philly and she's running around in a veil or w/e being loud to draw attention, and Doug calls her out on it and ends up making her cry like 2 days before the wedding. It was the funniest thing I'd ever seen.

Hehe, comedians hold nothing back.
 
he moved to chicago and then to california..
we emailed each other like a couple times and there was an open invitation to come visit .but the problem was that since he is a traveling comedian.his wife who i have never met was going to give me a a tour of cali..or more or less of hollywood.
i don't know this lady..even though she is a little famous she keeps popping up on these oxygen channels talking about how she like some show...
i am just stunned.. yeah i got to move on and if i ever see this dude walking across the street. i am gunning for the prick..0 to 60 ..i will watch him hit the pavemnt through my mirror..
not really..
it really sucks to be broken hearted.
as a guy i just didn't think i would be hurt like this..
i will be better again soon.
thank you for listening to me.
 
Its usually the womans choice who gets the invites in the end as weddings are all about the woman.. Weddings are extrememly expensive and lists need be whittled down to keep the obnoxious fees in check.. Its a total racket.. Dont be mad u didnt make the cut, be relieved.. Weddings suck bungholios...
 
I feel for you, but he probably just moved on with his life. It happens. I hardly stay in contact with any of my old friends, since my new life is so far removed from where I used to be. I'll always have those great old memories, and I am glad whenever I get to see these guys for a few hours or whatever, but the past is passed. Live in the moment. And ultimately, don't sweat things like this.

If he has offended you, then ____ him. Do you want to be really good friends with a guy that does stuff like that? No, so let him be.

I agree about weddings, though. They suck. I went to a justice of the peace, because I think the expensive shows are bull____. We don't live in ancient cultures where we needed big ceremonies to build community cohesion or whatever. Let the drama queens have their attention-gathering ceremonies.

Bingo. I guaran-###kin-tee you she's behind it. Though I seriously doubt its the money she's concerned about. You represent an era of her mans life she never wants to see or hear about. The era of not being P-----whipped.
 
And weddings are awesome because men hate them, and the ratio of men to women is so insanely skewed in your favor. Also even if you are a total jerk the women there automatically think you are a sweetheart because you are a wholesome outgoing lovable guy who put on a suit for a wedding instead of staying home with a sixpack. I lived in Hawaii 6 years, sooooo many weddings.
