It's time you let her know how you felt (again). She did cross the line by resorting to name-calling, and considering this is after she refused to attend your wedding. But she says you've known each other too long to not remain friends? My response would have been, "We've known each other too long for you to call me a selfish asshole or for you to completely write off my future husband." She should be aware that you're an adult, and you've been through more than your share of bullshit.Again, I know a lot of people would say I'm not exactly the expert on female relationships, but from what you've told me and from what is in your note here, but there could be a way to remain friends; however, that would have to come from her. You can do your part by telling her frankly how much she's pissing you off, confusing you, and disrespecting you and your husband; then, she has to do her part by admitting that she's been psychotic. And fixing it! Facebook is cutting me off, so good luck.

Dear Sharon,This sucks. It's completely your call on how much this person means to you as far as what you want to do. I don't believe you owe someone something because you've been friends for a long time, especially if she did these kind of things. People change and drift apart at times, and sometimes the apart-ness can lead to crap like this.I personally have come to the conclusion over the past few years that there are so many wonderful people that I can be friends with or get to know, why would i waste my time on someone that makes me feel icky? Especially when you move a lot, (which you have) you have so many friends in different places its hard to keep up with. If the other person is not going to put in the effort, I certainly am not going to. You have plenty of other friends/family/hubby that love you and care about you a lot.That sounds extremely pessimistic, so on the other side if you want to talk to her ever again which is completely your choice, you should tell her exactly how you feel and that what she did is not what you are desiring in your friendship which needs cpr. If she realizes that she has hurt you and apologizes, and if you feel like its worth it at all, maybe then you can start talking again and rebuilding your friendship. However, there is no reason to continue a friendship because of how long its been going on, but only if you want to. Don't waste your time. Anyway, I hope this turns out ok for you and yea good luck. <3
