What if you were both part of a bridal party and you didn’t want to spoil it for your friends?

does the break-up have to be nasty?

their wedding is about them... surely you and this guy can just be cool for the event, even if you've split up... or is he a total dick?

From experience it is difficult to tell how badly some people would take it!
You think you know a person until u tell them it’s over - and I just like to keep the peace so I’m stuck confused

Go to the wedding. Have a great time.

This is not your day but that of the Groom and Bride, be happy for them. Your pissed off feelings or grumpiness is going to show. Guests will notice, don't make the day about you.


After you go home pack your shit in plastic bags or whatever and leave. Break up. Have the bad news after you get home.

Yes. In my case it was a funeral. I waited until about two weeks after before ending it. For me, it wasn't a case of "having to cope with it" though. I genuinely liked her and the reason I waited was to not hurt her feelings. Had it been a case where I felt as you do about it, I might not have waited at all.

It's a tricky situation you're in. On the one hand, you don't want to spoil your friends day. On the other hand, you shouldn't have to be unhappy. Personally, what I would do in your position, I would hold my tongue for now. Follow Luv4u's advice. Go to the wedding, enjoy yourself, then deal with the other stuff afterwards.

When you have good friends in your life you need to consider their happiness which is why I’m going to grin and bear it!!!

Just make sure you tell the bride and groom about how you sacrificed your own happiness so as not to ruin their big day. That's what I'd do. I'd dine out on that for weeks.

Nah, I'm only kidding.



OR AM I??

Both of you do your bridal party thing. After that go home break up with them and kick them out.

screw that... pull the bandaid off... hopefully it will have settled by the wedding

you don't need to be with someone you don't want to.. not for a month... that's horrible

if your friends are real friends they'll be cool

i'd hate the thought of someone staying with a partner they weren't into because of my wedding

just tell your friends and then they should have a talk to him and tell him to be cool at the wedding... they're obviously close with him if he's in the bridal party

you don't have to put up with this... honestly... treat yourself better than that... it's not selfish... it's your life ffs

Why fake it? If you wanna leave, you leave. Going to this party and pretending everyting in your relationship is ok, with knowing its not, sounds pretty manipulative to your partner.

There doesn't have to be any drama at the wedding, just go alone, or say you split up but dont want to talk about it because its their wedding and you just wanna have some fun. No need to make it a big thing, unless you make it a big thing.

What I am reading is that you are going to stay in a shitty relationship for your friends. That would piss me off if I were to ever find out that one of my friends stayed in a relationship for that reason. If they are your friends, they don't want you to be in a relationship that makes you unhappy. Repeat that so it sinks in.

In case it wasn't clear, I am also in the break up now camp. Hell, the upside is the wedding. Single at a wedding reception? Yes, please smile.

Some people would feel like their wedding day was ruined if they knew there was a lot of tension between two members of the wedding party. Personally, I wouldn't feel that way at all. I got married two weeks ago and I kind of wish there had been something like that going on at my wedding. I feel it would have been entertaining. But I'm a bit weird like that. I'd say I'm in the minority as far as that goes.

True but now as each day passes the death of my soul lifts a little and keeping busy and helping friends eases things!!! He's also busy too so we are not in each other's faces as opposed to when I started this thread!

I once did a safari with a girl and realized she wasn't the one. But when you're travelling through the African wilderness, you don't just say bye bye and leave.
