We used to be a group of 6 really tight friends from high school, but then we started drifting a bit. I have been engaged for 3 years and talking abut my bridesmaids the entire time. Right after I got engaged, I immediately asked all 6 of them to be my bridesmaids and we have gone bridesmaids dress shopping many times, even though we haven't actually bought any yet. I am still really really close with 4 of them, but every single time we would plan something to hang out the other 2 (sisters) would bail out, save for birthdays. Sometimes for legitimate reasons, other times for bullshit. One of them even missed my first baby shower (which I had planned MONTHS ahead of time) because she never asked off work. Meanwhile, I have done this many many times for her. They used to host get-togethers and holiday parties all the time, but now they never do, or at least they never invite us.

I just don't think that they should be my bridesmaids if they won't put in the effort to keep up our friendship. They will answer if we text them, but that's about it. I don't know how to tell them either. I'm thinking about just telling them that their aren't enough groomsmen for them to be in the wedding party. WIBTA?
