     Declining an invite to be a bridesmaid?  

I just got married last year. One of my bridesmaids was someone new in my life, and she was constantly trying to take away attention on my wedding day. She is a nice person usually, but needs to be the center of attention all of the time. I had a hard time with the things she did on my day, but didn't say anything because I didn't want to ruin my wedding day. We are still somewhat friendly, but don't speak frequently or hang out frequently, even though we live in the same city. Now she is engaged, and I am curious to see if she will ask me to be a bridesmaid. I really do not want to be. Is there a polite, unhurtful way to decline?Unsure

If she asks you can tell her any number of things such as you are financially unable or physically unable to commit. You could have work commitments that would make it impossible to give her wedding the attention it deserves. See where I am going with this?
