Dear Tough Talk,
I’m getting married soon and I sent out several invitations that were returned as no-shows. I later heard that these friends and relatives aren’t attending because we have decided to get a condominium in the city instead of a white house and picket fence in the suburbs. I’m not sure why that would make them avoid our wedding. I’ve seen them a couple of times and they’re all friendly, but there is something not right. What do you think? (Wolf Hollow, South Dakota)
Wolfy,
I think you need to understand that these so-called friends and relatives are backstabbing losers. Wake up: You invite these people you care about to one of the most important days of your life and they say sorry, you don’t meet with my approval. Why would you waste your time having anything to do with them? You should have a great day and wash your hands of these guttersnipes. They did you a favor by exposing themselves for who they are. Cut them loose and don’t look back.
