Hey, /adv/. I'm feeling kinda bummed and I'd like some insight.
I've been invited to my friend's wedding. I'm gay and even though she's very religious, she treats me very kindly and said on many ocasions that she liked my girlfriend.
I received one invitation, and casually asked our mutual friends if she didn't want me to bring my girlfriend. They all said she was managing space and couldn't invite everyone. I shrugged.
So I got there and everyone was with their respective boyfriend/girlfriend. Except for two: me and this other gay friend of ours.
I was really sad and felt bad the entire wedding. If I knew she felt this way about my relationship I wouldn't have spent money with all dressing up crap to attend the wedding.
I know it's Her wedding and she has the right not to want... gay couples in her wedding. Like we would embarass her or anything.
Am I wrong to feel that way? What would you do in my place?
It's a religious wedding. What else did you expect?
It's normal feeling like that. But don't let it get to you, everyone lives their life the way they want, and such a thing doesn't change yours. You made her a favor by going over there and it's done, there's no use worrying over it
I have no advice but would you have felt better if your friend would have invited your girlfriend as well, but asked you not to show affection?
It's very possible that her family was paying for the wedding. And them being religious didn't want gay people at their daughter's wedding.
Wow. Why would she be your friend if she is embarassed about your sexual orientation.
