Today, I found on Facebook that my best friend of 10 years is getting married next week. I'm guessing my invite got lost in the mail. FML

Probably, we all know how unreliable the postal system can be.

if they were really best friends OP probably would have been in the wedding

Ask him about it, and see if he did he send it. Hopefully it did get lost, instead of him not even sending you one

Formal invite or not, if you didn't even know they were getting married, then you are not best friends. Maybe you were once, but not now.

Friends can grow apart...even people who you thought were your best friends. It happens, maybe OP Hasn't seen their 'best friend' in a while? But true friends can not see each other for weeks/years and be like they've never been apart.

Yep because there's no other way to contact people besides the postal service, it's also more than likely she didn't want op at her wedding for whatever reason that was.

Might be your best friend but you might no be their best friend :-( FYL

Several of the couples I know that recently got married didn't mail invitations or only mailed them to out of town guests to save money. That said if you really are best friends you should have been verbally told about it.

You always get a "My best friend didn't invite me to X or Y". It makes me think it's just that persons perception of the relationship and not both parties because if they were truly that close under no circumstance would a "best friend" treat their closest in such a way

If you were actually best friends you would have known they were getting married..

Well yeah I think that's OP's point and the reason for the FML... They thought of this person as their best friend but the other person didn't even share with them that they were getting married. I don't think this FML is just about not being invited, but about not being told at all.
