Friend cut me off and blocked me
I had a male friend that I'd known since being a teenager. In our early 20's we had a short fling (I was in a bit of a bad place and it happened after we'd been drinking). Luckily we managed to go back to being friends and confided in each other a lot over the years.
We're now both in our 30's, he has has since had 3 children and I'm married. I invited him and his partner to my wedding and in the lead up to it we'd been messaging about his new baby and the possibility of all getting together sometime. Him and his partner attended my wedding, ate the food, drank the drinks etc and I had a quick friendly chat with them during the day. I sent a thank you message to him a few weekends later and there was no response. I then messaged again a few months after to ask how the family are doing, again no reply. I then noticed that his WhatsApp picture had disappeared so I assume he blocked me.
I was always careful to be respectful of their relationship, keep our messages about our families and told my husband about our very brief history. I just can't work out why he suddenly cut me off after coming to my wedding.
I'll never contact him again but it did hurt me because we'd been friends through a lot. Would you be annoyed and do you have any idea what might have happened?

Maybe he only told his partner after the wedding about what happened with y’all and she told him to block you 🤷🏾♀️ i would be annoyed though cause he could have let you know what was up.
yeah I did wonder whether his partner asked more about our past following the wedding and was then unhappy with us being friends. It was over 10 years ago though and it felt really rude and disrespectful to come to the wedding then just bin me off like that.
Yeah maybe it was less of his choice and more of hers 😕 I'm sorry that happened to you though, male/female friendships are tricky for a lot of people. I've definitely learned that from this app
I would still send a handwritten thank you. You can include something about what the friendship means to you if you want but I agree I'm there may have been questions after the wedding. Hope you get some closure!
Thank you 🙏
