She Got Into A Terrible Car Accident On The Day Of Her Best Friend’s Wedding And Missed It, But Since Her Best Friend Has Shown No Concern For How She Is After The Accident, She Wants To Stop Being Her Friend
This woman has a best friend whom she has been close to for 17 years now, and back in 2021, her best friend moved to Florida.
Since she’s a single mom and also the owner of a catering company, she has not been able to make it from California to Florida to see her best friend since she relocated.
When her best friend got engaged and asked if she wanted to be her maid of honor, she was overjoyed to say yes.
She then made sure she was there to help her best friend every step of the way with the planning of her wedding, and she was especially helpful with assisting in everything related to catering because of what she does for a living.
Anyway, the day of her best friend’s wedding arrived, and she was running all over the place that morning trying to get everything together.
Her sister-in-law was there with her, as her sister-in-law and brother are super close to her best friend.
After she and her sister-in-law were done with their errands, they both ran back to her best friend’s house to put their makeup on and do their hair.
They then gave everyone a ride from her best friend’s house to the wedding venue, which was super close by.
Following the drop-off, she stepped in to help make sure photos were going well before noticing that she forgot her bag at her best friend’s house.

“With 15 minutes before the ceremony started, I went back to the house to grab my bag, called BFF to get anything else she may have forgotten, and was driving back to the ceremony when a car attempted to run a red light, turned left in front of me and caused the worst major car accident I’ve ever had,” she explained.
“Airbags deployed, my hearing immediately was gone; I kicked my way out of the car and sat on the curb until an ambulance arrived. I was taken to the hospital to be evaluated, and I missed my BFF’s entire wedding. I was devastated, and I apologized to her through text messages for overshadowing her day.”
“I was finally released at midnight from ER, went back to Airbnb in a brace, badly bruised, with no hearing, and on painkillers.”
The day after she got out of the hospital, she had a list of things to do before getting on a plane home.
She had to run around getting prescriptions, she had to pick up noise-canceling headphones that she could wear on the plane home, and she had to make sure she got photos of the car for her insurance company.
The evening prior to her flight home, her best friend came over to see them, but she was obviously super irritated with her.
Her best friend then questioned her about why she had to drive back to her house in the first place, and she pointed out that she had left her bag behind and was going back for it.
Her best friend ignored her and began speaking to her sister-in-law about something so quietly that she didn’t catch what she said.
Right before her best friend left that night, she was just curt with her. She felt awful about their interaction and tried to let it go as she went to sleep.
“It’s been 2.5 weeks since the accident, and she hasn’t called me to check on me once; she texted me only after I texted to ask how the honeymoon was and went as far as to post photos of the wedding on Instagram and tagged my SIL to say thank you for all of her help multiple times without ever acknowledging my presence or saying thank you to me,” she said.
“I feel deeply hurt and think letting this friendship go peacefully would be the easiest path.”
She’s left wondering if it would be wrong of her to end her 17-year-long friendship with her now former best friend.
