"Marriage Over Friendship" - COCKTAIL CONVERSATIONS on KLJN 107.7

Its Wedding season and more choices are too be made.  Would you cut off your friend of almost 20 years to marry your fiance of 2 yrs who is jealous and controlling?

Lets look at this Scenario #  - 52 Marriage Over Friendship.

Sometimes friendships don’t last. Derek and Kelly have been friends for over seventeen years and during those times they had a few moments between them, but nothing too serious. Derek was more of a mentor for Kelly as she moved up the professional ladder. Derek gave her the blueprint and she followed it and her career took off.

When Kelly started dating her soon to be insecure, controlling husband, Ralph, things changed between Kelly and Derek. One day Derek left a message from Kelly’s phone joking with her, something they both did to each other, and Ralph got the message and called Derek up going off without Derek getting in a word. But at times, Derek felt like he was going to have to step to Ralph and kick his ass, but he was more of a professional to behave like that.

The last straw to Derek and Kelly’s friendship ending was the fact that she got married. Derek did not get a personal invitation. Kelly sent the invitation to Derek’s mother who lives in another state. Derek felt like he deserved better and he did not attend the wedding and has not spoken to Kelly since then, which was over eight years ago. Is Derek wrong for feeling bitter?
