What should I do about my ex-bestfriend?

I had a best friend for the last 12 years, we met at high school and have remained best friends since. She was even one of my three bridesmaids.

She recently tried to ruin my wedding in various ways. She tried to cause problems between me and my husband- but failed.

She has told a mutual friend that she did not think that I would get married before her, I do not know why as she does not have a boyfriend and has not even been on a date for over 4 years!

A couple of days after my wedding she threw a massive party for herself and I did not even get invited despite her inviting friends of mine who she barely knows.

I found out that she has put loads of photos from my wedding, which I have never seen, on bebo under her profile. She never asked my permission and I did not want my wedding photos put on the internet.

She is trying to turn my friends against me by playing the victim in this and making up lies about me.

I have avoided her for the last 4 months but she keeps doing things just to annoy me and cause trouble for me.

Should I continue to try to avoid all contact or should I contact her and tell her to quit it?

You need to know why she's started all this so ask her. There must be some sort of reason of why she's started up all the lies and making problems between you and your friends plus making problems between you and your husband on your wedding day. I think that she's started all of this because she is jealous, jealous that you have got a husband while she doesn't.

Also warn your husband and friends about her before she manages to successfully ruin your marriage and friendships.

Dr. John agony auntWhat about having a mature one on one discussion with her? The results could be eye opening and even cause a breakthrough for the two of you.

Many times a person may be hurt by something you did which in fact you never realized you did. In turn the person you offended may think you knew exactly what you were doing. On the flip side of the coin it could be a total misconception on her part.

In any case a calm one on one conversation with her may bring things to a head and it is possible that the two of you could even laugh at the situation later.

I sincerly hope you are able to repair your friendship together. Doc.
