I texted my friend 3x within 3 months to hang out. He kept saying yes even After I said - if you don't wanna hang, say so. But he hasn't gotten back to me about a date he's free. I see he's blowing me off and I'm upset. And no he's not too busy, sick, working or traveling. He's blown me off in the past too. I might lose his friendship but I want to text him this:"When you ignore me after saying you'd like to catch up it makes me feel undervalued and not considered. I don't expect a lot from people but I have a ton of patience and I would appreciate it if you would be honest with me."

My best friend decided to elope and has moved to a different part of the country, before moving she had said she was still planning on having a wedding in our hometown. My b/f and I aren't engaged but we have a venue and date already (didn't want to miss out on the perfect venue), I found out that she is planning her wedding to be 3 months before mine, where she now lives. I talked with my b/f and we wont have the money to attend her wedding. I also have started to feel distant from her and I know she will most likely not be able to attend everything I expect a bridesmaid to attend. I do not want her to be a bridesmaid but she is still a close friend and I don't want to hurt her, how can I make her understand.

My male best friend has just gotten married... A couple of times throughout the whole wedding, I found myself staring at him, and feeling depressed and very emotional. I of course am happy for him but apart of me isn t too happy. Now today, I can not stop getting emotional over the littlest things, I feel very depressed and I m wondering why this may be? I respect him to the fullest and obviously want nothing more than to see him happy...my boyfriend has brought up marriage multiple times and it sounded amazing until last night... Until I saw my best friend get married....

Will I stay on my parents insurance? I heard that you do until you're 26... is that true or is that only for single people?

I'm a bridesmaid in my brother's wedding. They are currently on the other side of the country and unable to come home until their wedding due to new jobs and the fact that her family lives 10 hours away from his family. I am looking to organize a "gift card" shower. How could I word this in the invitation?

Well, when I say family issues, it's mostly issues between my older sister and our father. You see, our father cheated on our mom and left when we were kids. My sister was the oldest and took it the hardest. Then our mom got sick and our dad came back after two years of having nothing to do with us. My brother, who is the youngest, and I were happy to have him back. Our sister pretended to be for us. But everyone knew she hadn't forgiven him. He stayed for almost a year and then our mom died and he abandoned us again for over six months. Only coming back when he'd found us a 'new mom'. Things between them didn't work out (she was expecting us to be younger than we were). Our father left again, leaving us with our moms family before he came back with a house and a job, of sorts. My sister was the only constant in mine and my brothers life throughout this period. She was there when our father married a woman and she was there when I went through a time in my life where I hated my father, too. She's been supportive and loving and like a mom to us. But she's never, ever gotten close to our father again. Since she moved out at 18, she's only seen him a handful of times. My sister and brother are going to be my best people at my wedding. They're the two I've been through everything with. I wouldn't have anyone else at my side on the day. My father, however, feels I should use my wedding as a way for him to speak to my sister by throwing them together in photos and doing jobs. Also he wants me to sit them together. He's also angry that I didn't include my stepsisters in the wedding, etc. It's a huge mess and it's causing my finacée and I stress. I've kept her away from most of this, but it came up a couple of days ago when we spent some time at my fathers house. He even brought up including the girls in front of them. What would you do if you were in my shoes? My fiancée and I have considered cutting them all from the wedding because this relationship is not good. He's dragging my sisters kids into it now. He's using them (they're going to be in the wedding) as a way of getting his stepkids in and since he's never met them, he wants us to find a way to get them into photos with him and his wife. It's nothing to do with my sister really. It's the fact he won't let things go and is doing everything he can to have everything he wants. And it's a picture of him, his wife and my sisters kids, not my stepsiblings, he wants. My sister would never allow that anyway, but he's expecting us to do it all behind her back. My sister isn't interested in a relationship with our father. She's told him that several times. But he feels like he's owed a relationship with us.
