     Should i ask why I'm not a bridesmaid?  

My friend who says im her best friend and loves me did not ask me to be in her bridal party, I asked her who was in the bridal party, she tells me her sister, cousin and her friend from work. Then she goes on to say my friend from work asked to be my bridesmaid so i felt bad and said ok..

I just dont believe it. Should i just come out and ask why Im not in the bridal party since im her best friend?

or should i stay quiet.

Remembering that being a bridal attendant requires expense and activity on your part, if you really would like to be a bridesmaid, please do ask. Not asking could cause a gap in your friendship that may never be bridged.

Well, I was waiting for her to ask me, i thought it was up to her to ask me to be her bridesmaid. She only let me know the date of the wedding 2 months in advance and had already planned her bridal party.

I didnt know i was supposed to ask to be included.

No, nancy was not telling you that it was your responsibility to ask but you asked if we thought you should mention to the bride that you would have liked to be chosen as a bridesmaid. I think nancy was just encouraging you to tell the bride how you felt but not necessarily to ask her if you could be a bridesmaid. Although, if you were to have this talk with your friend, you should be prepared that she may invite you.
