Not sure if this is the right location for my thread so if it''s not, sorry.
This question has been bugging me for a long time now. One of my friends, maybe even my best friend if he were still around locally, since high school has been living out of the country in Asia for about three years now. He''s married with a kid and still has family near me. When he visits I never see him. He rarely returns my email. He calls me when he''s here only to tell me that he''s busy and wants to meet up one day. I always say sure and then it never happens. I just bought a house and he said he''d visit to see the new digs but never showed up on the day he promised and never called. I presume it''s because he''d already left for Asia. Now, I haven''t proposed but we''re planning our wedding stuff in case we can do it before year''s end. Ring stuff is well underway, though (many thanks to those PSers that helped!!!). Anywho, on to the main issue. Like I mentioned earlier, I''ve known this guy since my high school days and I was in his wedding. But considering how much he''s changed in the last few years do I need to invite him let alone ask him to be in the wedding party or even best man? If I do all this without him I really don''t have much to lose since he''s never here anyway but I just want some opinions on this. Thank you!
