Dude. You don’t have to do this.
Neither did you.
And that was it.
The wedding happened without me.
And for a while, I wondered if I made the wrong choice. If I should have just gone for Bobby’s sake.
If I was being too stubborn.
But then, something happened.
One by one, the guys reached out. Some admitted they felt weird about it but didn’t know how to speak up. Some apologized for not supporting me.
A few even said they respected my decision.
And Bobby?
We haven’t spoken since.
Losing a best friend sucks. But you know what sucks more? Realizing they were never really your friend to begin with.
Because a real friend wouldn’t have asked me to leave my partner behind to make someone else comfortable.
A real friend would’ve fought for me the way I always fought for him.
And if standing by Julia meant losing Bobby?
Then Bobby was never worth keeping.
