Hi Amy,
It sounds as though you still have some residual resentment for this ex friend.
You say that since you had a boyfriend, the friend started to act really off and awkward with you. Perhaps you misread that, and he was simply giving you space and time to be with your boyfriend?
Perhaps the invitation to his wedding is simple. He wants to include you in the circle of people he regards as friends who are invited to his wedding.
You can choose your friends, but to expect other mutual friends to feel the same way you do about this friend is a little unrealistic perhaps. They don’t have a problem with him, so why would they feel the need to side with you and turn away from him? Is that was is bothering you – the fact that you feel these other two friends shouldn’t be his friend simply because you don’t want to be his friend, and therefore they shouldn’t want to be his friend either?
with best wishes,
Jay
