>Gets tears and a huge three page written letter about how she would be betraying herself and beliefs and doesn't want to ruin her relationship with God, family, and especially husband
>I've known her husband since we were 3, longer than I've known my best friend and once he found out I was with a girl he doesn't see me as any sort of human being anymore
>Doesn't want his wife being friends with a lesbian
>Hugged her, dried her tears, told her it was cool and definitely didn't want to ruin her relationship with anyone or test her faith, told her I'm completely fine

>She's super happy and relieved and said she'll come to the wedding, she just can't stand beside me as a friend as if she supports that
>OK
>Still feeling crappy about it
>FML I have like no other friends

Honestly the wedding is about me and my fiance, I didn't want there to be any drama or crap, just people having a good time. But it's harder than I thought to be all buddy-buddy and I try really hard, but end up not calling/texting her back at times. Not I see why people just run off to vegas/same sex get married at the courthouse with no big ceremony, it's still so complicated

Medieval fantasy theme though and it's the most fun thing to plan/prepare for, so that's keeping my thoughts busy. Still having feels about it though, and my fiance who is usually carefree has been bringing herself to tears no matter how much I console her because she's worried no one will take it seriously on our day and just see it as a novelty, just a "lesbian wedding". No matter how much you prepare yourself for these sort of things, it still catches you off guard.
