I have worked with her for two years now, and although we did not become friends straight away, our relationship grew and I was under the impression that we had become pretty good friends. That was until I found out that six other workmates (out of 15 in the whole office) where invited to her wedding, but not me. I know that the boss is also pretty pissed because she wasn't invited either. I guess I know where I stand with her now, but how am I supposed to go on working with her?

Think of it this way - you save yourself money in not having to buy her a wedding gift. I think it was rude on her part to invite some co-workers but not all, that's why it's best not to invite anyone from work - it saves this kind of thing from happening. Don't get upset about it, look at it like it's one less thing you have to do. It sounds like your work "friend" is really more of a friendly acquaintance. I had the same thing happen to me - my boss and I get along really well but when she had her annual halloween party, she didn't invite me - and instead invited a woman nearly 30 years older then us. I was shocked but I didn't let it get to me. Just do your work and don't worry about her.

the only bizarre area that i can work out (you're completely over reacting by the way) is the fact that somebody is bringing a new child (the hot born) yet besides the undeniable fact that according to hazard that's one in all those situations the place it is an exception as you does no longer desire to circulate away a new child with a babysitter. All in all your loved ones difficulty is your difficulty and not as much as random family to furnish opportunities for you to socialize with who you desire. in case you desire to work out human beings greater oftentimes then organize some sort of party that's no longer a funeral, like say a occasion to your next birthday. some human beings on right here won't be able to examine. It mentioned the toddlers are going to be on the ceremony which the questioner isn't invited to, no longer the reception. besides the fact that i do no longer see how reception interprets into person basically disco yet in spite of... i think you may experience disillusioned approximately no longer being invited to the ceremony yet once you at the instant are not close, according to hazard they are in a position to't arise with the money for to do all what you probably did.

It wasn't very smart not to invite the boss, was it? Just let it go. Maybe she could only invite a certain number of people. Weddings are very expensive, you know. Don't invite her to any celebrations you have but don't make a big deal out of it.

Why would you feel offended? She can invite whoever she wants, it's nothing to do with you. What do you mean "but how am I supposed to go on working with her?", what a stupid question. If you think you have an automatic right to be invited to social events by your colleagues to need to change your job and go self-employed.
I think you have a cheek expecting to be invited.

How long has she known the others? She may have had to shorten the guest list. The most important people at the wedding are family.

I beleive she thinks that you will attend the wedding without invitation, because you are not only a friend but a family member. She thinks that family members should not be invited but they will come to give them blessings.

so- she invited some colleagues & not others; that is her perogative
cost can be a big factor in limiting numbers- is she more friendly with those she has asked to attend?
you ask --" how can I go on working with her?"- grow up & get over it
if you were the only 1 not invited then you may have cause to be miffed-

Maybe the other six helped out with wedding plans? Wouldn't worry about it. Just buy her a great gift to show her that she won't get to you.

No, don't be offended. Go on working with her without a grudge. There obviously wasn't enough room to allow everyone to come, and she had some hard choices.

Be respectful of her in the workplace and try to not let this bother you. You may never know the true reasons. Regardless, be happy for her, and if she continues to pursue your friendship at work, then be her friend.
