My friend is getting married. I was there the day her fiancé proposed in front of all her family and friends. To my surprise she texted me this morning admitting that all through high school her fiancé had a huge crush on me and had never had the guts to ask me out. She was his friend and had encouraged him to ask me out but he was too shy. She had initiated a conversation with me one day in order to give him an opportunity to join in. But the small conversation between us had eventually grown to talking during class and eventually sitting together at lunch and eventually me and her were friends. She TOLD me he was her boyfriend. One day she invited me to the movies and he was there as well. He said something to me that I thought seemed flirtatious and I was very short and even rolled my eyes at him. He didn’t know that I was standoffish and short with him because I assumed he was her boyfriend but I did end up telling her that he attempted to flirt with me. For some reason she didn’t admit that he wasn’t her boyfriend and just allowed this narrative to continue-him believing I was rude and me believing he was her boyfriend who had tried to flirt with me. So they did end up dating eventually because their obviously getting married and it just never came up again. Well she goes on to say that he wanted to not invite me due to the way I treated him and that even though she stayed friends with me he would feel comfortable not inviting me on his wedding day. She apologized to me because she said she considered me a real friend and that it was no harm in what she did, it was just a little white lie/misunderstanding that allowed her to pursue a man she thought would be stuck on me had it not been for that day. But she said that even though I wouldn’t be allowed to the wedding she wanted me to just carry on with our friendship afterwards without any animosity for not being invited but she didn’t want to look like a liar to her husband
