This girl at work was trying to break up me and my wife, I was clearly not interested distpite telling her, so instead of going to my boss I fixed her up with my friend. I recently after 15 years stopped talking to him because his drug use got out of hand: he stole, he was irrational, and violent to me. I don't know if he is clean or not, I no longer trust him, and I want to steer clear of her to keep my job and my personal life. They are acting like i'm the immature one dispite my rational explanation why I don't want to be friends. am I being stubborn and unforgiving?

Between friends, "No" is a perfectly acceptable response.
If you've spent 15 years avoiding or not saying "no, thank you", I would guess that you are due some tedious professional practice in repeating it to them now. Sounds like they are willing to give you every opportunity to say it to them again. Forgetful pair, aren't they?

not at all, why would anyone want to be around horrible people like them? you have no obligation to them and should decline the offer to be in their wedding (it's expensive to be in one anyways, and they don't seem worth the time or effort). if you have to work with them, just do your job and be professional. you don't have to be friends with co-workers. and if they insist on being part of your personal life, just say you're busy with your family

While I don't agree with your matchmaking efforts, I agree you can pass on the wedding. (She should have been fired for sexual harassment.) If your ex-friend is still not clean, he should be in treatment--not getting married. I feel sorry for their future children.
