My cousin is engaged to my ex boyfriend.
They're getting married in May.
I was the first person she told her engagement to.
She wants me to be her bridesmaid.
I don't know what am I suppose to feel.
Your cousin has he adacity to ask her fiance's x girlfriend to be her bridesmaid? Helllooo??? Wdf is wrong w/ yur cousin? Thats pretty lame of her to ask you that.
This isn't your fault, so dont feel depressed.
Don't be her bridesmaid - situation is all too weird. She's a total b*tch for asking you that.
If you want to be told what to "feel" about your situation, if anything - feel pity ( and laugh )for yur x b/f, cause he about to be tied down for the rest of his life to a non - common sensed stupid, no thinking ahead broad.
Just imagine all those little preventable situations they will have in the future. Maybe you can observe them and write a sitcom about it 10 years from now.

The most important thing is to just spend some time figuring out how you feel, and then to do whatever it takes to support your feelings.
For example, if you feel uncomfortable being a bridesmaid, don't be one! Your cousin should understand. Do whatever it takes to make you feel okay with yourself.

Do your best to keep them to yourself if you can. You should congratulate her on her engagement and wish the both of them well, but if you're not comfortable being a member of the wedding party, you shouldn't feel obligated to. I'm sure it would mean a lot to your cousin if you were one of her bridesmaids, though. The best advice I can offer you is to just grin and bear it....

MummuM answered Sunday January 29 2006, 6:18 pm: I think you should be happy for her, hun. Especially since you were the first person she told and she wants you to be a bridesmaid. That's super! You should be happy that she found that special someone, even though he is your ex. Obviously you and your ex weren't meant to be, or you guys would still be together. You'll find the right one, you just have to give it some time. There's someone out there for everyone and he just wasn't it. Keep searching and never give up, because you will find that special someone. As for now, just be happy for your friend, since it is going to be her special day. ♥ [ MummuM's advice column | Ask MummuM A Question ]
xoBrowneyes answered Sunday January 29 2006, 3:08 pm: So your question is i'm guessing what you should feel?
you should be happy for her and that you where chosen to be her bridesmaids. If you are to shy or emmarased to do this ask if it would be ok just to sit and watch. Tell her it's nothing personal. [ xoBrowneyes's advice column | Ask xoBrowneyes A Question ]
