Just re-reading this. How close could we possible have REALLY been if she got married without telling me? Maybe we weren't so close after all. I mean, do close friends do that? Maybe I misunderstood our friendship.

And am I that scary? Why would she be afraid to tell me something like that? What's the worst I would have done -- tried to talk her out of it? Decided I didn't want to be her friend any longer? Apparently, she's not too concerned about that last consideration, so what's up with not telling me?
