    Dude, if you introduced them, were present at the proposal and officiated their wedding, you’re a lifelong friend even if they don’t invite you on their honeymoon.

      Yeah this sounds pretty dang selfish of OP. You gave two people their entire lives, new hopes and dreams, and yeah their friend circle is going to be tight for the rest of their lives…

      But them doing couple things makes you jealous? Sounds like something OP needs to work on internally and figure out how to deal with those feelings

        Dude that’s fiction, a webcomic, not OP necessarily OP venting (though it could certainly be used as a medium)

      Yours, mine, and everyone else’s happiness has value. I get that’s not the point you were trying to make. All I am trying to say is that a utilitarian approach to your own happiness will almost always leave you unhappy. You deserve to be happy just as much as anyone else.

        Shut up, you are not my supervisor!!

        (But that’s really sweet & regardless how stupid it sounds some people do need to hear that over and over again. I think it’s actually a net benefit to us all if everyone is kinda happy bcs that’s how we can have more to give in the long run.)

    Yeah just because you weren’t married to both of them when they got married to each other, it doesn’t mean you are excluded from still being friends. I think people forget that good friendships are the best kind of relationships. Not everyone was meant to be a couple.
