I can SO relate to you today. I got an email last week from an old friend that was part of a group like yours. It said "check this website out" and nothing more. Sure enough, it was a website that the girl and her new husband created detailing every part of their relationship together from how they met to the wedding and the new apartment. I was so shocked because this girl was so high-maintenance and picky that I didn't think she'd ever even move out of her parent's house muchless get married any time soon.
I'm sure we had a lot of the same emotions so I won't go into all that... But I know how you feel.

I have gotten similar ones & I refuse to attend weddings anymore.

I am in the age range now that people are too busy to keep the friendship either due to work, husbands, boyfriends. I hate when women, yes women, place their relalationship over their friendships. I really believe in a balanced life. It hurts me when people don't make time when I have reached out repeatedly. I am now evaulating the energy I oput out & hope I can find people that want new friends.

I can so feel your pain. I am sitting here pretty lonely today (it's one of those days when I simply can't stop analyzing my life). I am 29 and I had lots of things going for me for a while. I had a boyfriend of almost 10 years (he passed away) and suddenly, I became single. Not only did I become single like almost 2 years ago, but I seem to have lost my ability to attract men. My knowledge of the dating scene is beyond bad. The hard part is, all the female friends I can count on are married with children and have a life of their own. Hell, some hardly even call or e-mail me unless one of their children did something cute or their husbands did something nice for them. I really do understand how it feels when suddenly the e-mails becomes pictures of the bundles of joy. It's not that we are not happy for the, we just want them to take our feelings into consideration...that's all. Don't let things get to you too much. I know it's not easy but just don't let it get to you. I am sure those e-mails with the adorables will continue coming but just hang in there with it.
