I didn’t get invited to my coworkers wedding – should I be offended?

r/

Hey Two Hot Takes/ Reddit peoples! I’m in a weird situation with my coworkers. My two coworkers V, X, and I have been a trio of girl friends since we started working together (1.5 ago). We spend time together outside of work hours and are actually friends. In October 2024, we had a seating arrangement change up and since I work in a different department, I ultimately ended up getting moved away from them. Even after that we always hung out everyday, and talked as much as we possibly could at work together. I thought they still considered me their close friend until I found out that X didn’t invite me to her wedding. Honestly, I would have been completely fine with this – I didn’t expect coworker friends to be invited and assumed she’d be having a smaller, intimate wedding. I come to find out that V is invited. If I hadn’t talked about the wedding and engagement with her I don’t think this would hurt so much but I am truly very upset. I feel like I thought I was close with these people and maybe they never saw me like that which isn’t really adding up in my brain. Should I be a bit upset or am I overreacting? I obviously wouldn’t say anything to her (X) about it but I just feel really hurt. I want to celebrate your love too! I love weddings. Pls help me out.
