Sort of. My best friend from high school got recently married and I was not invited to the wedding. We were good friends throughout high school and kept in close touch throughout college and grad school. But then, we drifted apart. I heard through friends that he got married. But I wasn't upset or offended because we just hadnt talked in years.

In your case, it's a little different. I do find it a little crass that he would invite your parents but not you to the wedding. That's a little odd. Especially since they specifically told your family that.

Sounds like you kind of pushed him away when you said you need to find yourself, by yourself.

If a best friend said that to me, I wouldn't want much else to do with him either. The only thing I can really say is to just move on. Surely you have other friends in your life to spend time with. Let the high school friends move on.

I don't really know anything about either of you or the whole story, but it sounds like you just need to move on.. It happens. I have lost so many close friends over the years, but I don't let it bother me... just find more people who share similar interests as you, get a girlfriend, whatever...do whatever you want with your life. It's not like he needs to be a part of it.

Plus..it's just a wedding. Who wants to get tied down at that age? But that's just me.

Move on, live your life to the fullest, and don't dwell on the past....because you can make the future so much better.

The fact that he did not invite you to his wedding tells you that he does not consider you as his friend, especially if you run into him every so often and he hasn't make any effort to invite you over.

I know it hurts man, I feel you on this one. But a relationship takes two to work, and it seems that you are the only one making the efforts here. He made the choice to not be friends with you, and I would advise you to learn to accept it. The sooner you come to this conclusion the better off you will be.

It's cool that you don't hold grudges against him. Afterall you have no reason to give somene the power to make you feel down when that person doesn't even hold you in high regard.

I think you are a sensible dude and you have much room to growth, don't let your friend hold you back. You need to learn to enjoy your life, with or without him.

Good luck

Its strange how he invites your parents but not you. Is he better friends with your parents then you, if so that is a bit strange. Also if you kept in contact with him over the five years and you guys saw each other now and then, then I feel you deserve a call back or at least an e-Mail. But if it were me I wouldn't even go to the reception. I would stop trying and move on. Do my own things and when I get married wouldn't send him an invitation or even try to ever get back in contact. Its strange how someone you grew up with is blanking you. I'm the kinda person who would hold a grudge though. :PxTheExploited
