I Don't Want to be in Her Wedding

Dear WISY,

I need advice, please.  My friend is getting married next spring and she asked me to be a part of the wedding.  I am really excited about the wedding and I'm really happy for her.  The only issue is, she's including a girl who has been horrible to the both of us.  She just got around to apologizing for all her crazy behavior and my friend sees it fit for her to be a part of the bridal party.  I honestly don't want to be a part of the wedding anymore.  I haven't forgiven this girl yet.  The things she did and said really hurt me.  I'm just not over it yet.  My question to you is:  Should I excuse myself from the wedding party?  I really don't want to bring any negative vibes to what should be a loving situation.

Signed,

Bridesmaid

WISY's Advice:

Dear Bridesmaid,

I think you should grow up and put your feelings aside for what will possibly be the most important day of your friend's life.  It's not your wedding.  If she has forgiven someone for past offenses then you should not project your feelings into that situation.  I understand that you're struggling to forgive this girl, but excusing yourself in itself is bringing negativity to the situation.  Think about the consequences of your actions and stop being so selfish.  Your friend chose you to be a part of her special day.  Don't ruin it.  No one is asking you to become bosom buddies with the girl, just put your big girl panties on and behave like a sensible adult.

Walk good,
#TeamWISY
