Well, I asked her to lunch. We'll see how that goes.

We have a wedding coming up for a friend that was part of a group that we used to hang out with together. Now that we are separate, I'm not included anymore.

We were both on the invite. She feels it will be awkward, but I thought it a good opportunity to show that we can still have a good time. Well, she said she doesn't feel it's a good idea because it will be uncomfortable, so I did something different. I literally had "thanks for the support" written out on my phone, but then erased it - thinking "what is that going to gain us? Nothing"

So, I changed it to "that's very disappointing, but I understand how you feel."

She replied "Sorry, I'm just being honest"

I replied "I can see that....I am disappointed, but can respect your wish for me not to attend."

She said "thank you for understanding"

I think I did the right thing.
