Today, my best friend announced she was getting married. I've always wanted to be a bridesmaid but she then added, "You can't be in the bridal party because you don't have the same body type as the other bridesmaids. But you can still come to the bachelorette party!" FML

And you call her your "best" friend? **** her.

That truly sucks. Go and be polite, but don't invite her when you get married.

I'm guessing you're fat a so wouldn't you just make your friend look better at the wedding

"You don't have the same body type as the other bridesmaids." Does that say that OP is fat? She could be big chested, flat chested, big ass, little ass, curvy, stick, short, average, tall, pear shaped, hourglass, apple shaped, overweight, normal weight, underweight, the list goes on. It could infer anything.

Some best friend you have there. Point being, if she was your best friend and truly cared about you without judging your looks she wouldn't have said what she said to begin with

I'm sorry about your superficial "best" friend but believe it or not, it really sucks being a bridesmaid. I've done it 6 times. It's time consuming and very very costly (buying an ugly dress you'll never wear again, shoes, jewelry, getting hair and nails done etc... the list goes on) I won't do it ever again. It's so much more fun to just enjoy the events like a normal guest that likes to party.(:

I've been a bridesmaid twice, and one of them was for my best friends wedding! I had so much fun, planning and being her "bitch" for her big day! We live in separate states, so it was kinda hard to help plan but we made it work! The other wedding was fun too, but helping my BFF was the best! H

My "best friend" recently got engaged as well, and when I asked her about any wedding planning she might need help with. Mind you, she's nineteen, has a baby, and is well broke. She didn't say anything and we have now not talked for a month or so because she doesn't want me in the wedding or whatnot. So I know how you feel. I'd do what one said and go, but not invite her to your own. Be the better person, OP. :)

Did she say why she doesn't want you in the wedding? Is it the same lame body type bullshit?

I haven't commented on an fml in awhile but i had to sign on to reply to this one . ok , first of all , sorry OP but it's her wedding . now you know what kind of person she is and now you know not to invite her to yours or not to put her in your bridal party . i'm guessing you are a overweight woman . but if she sees her wedding a certain way and that includes no fatties in her wedding party or pictures then who are you to tell her otherwise . exactly , you're no one . it's her wedding not yours .

Yep, definitely better if you stop commenting in a place where there are actual decent people.

This situation shows how much of a "friend" she is. Do you really need to maintain contact with such a ungrateful, selfish btch?

I'm gonna say your best friend doesn't consider you her best friend. That always stinks to find out too!! Go to the bachelorette party, and just be glad you won't have to put up with this Bridezilla. If she's already talking about body types--that's exactly what she's gonna be!

Wow that is not a friend. You will find people that love you no matter what body type you have! If the best friend cares more about her pics than a friend. Well forget her and find a real friend
