I feel like this when a long term long distance friend doesnt bother telling me they got married. OK, guess I'm out.

For me it was when my "best friend" got pregnant and I found out through a Facebook post and 30 other people had known for months :/

I think you Sniffy4 are overthinking it. You weren’t as close as you thought you were. Doesn’t mean you aren’t friends. Nuclearmind, you aren’t as close as you thought you were. Maybe they were your best friend but you weren’t theirs

I was never at best friend status, but 'not gonna tell em I got married' seems like the red line you draw between long-term friends you value and 'friendly acquaintances'.
