The gift didn't arrive until a few days after the bridal shower. The bride-to-be emailed me the following Monday to tell me she didn't receive a card from me. Is that rude or should I have made sure she received the gift at the shower?
This is not the first time she's exhibited signs of Bridezilla behavior. When I flew out to NY for her bachelorette party, she practically prohibited me from spending any time with my other friends in NYC. She said "I'm the one getting married and it's not my job to accommodate your social life." I flew across the country for a few short days and she expects me to devote every mintue to her?

What a bitch! She emails you to whine because she did not get the expected homage on the precise date? She now owes you a thank you note for the present and a groveling apology for her petty hostile email. Second, when your friends fly across country to see you, they are doing you a favor and you do not punish them with selfish rules; you understand that they will take advantage of the chance to see other pals and don't act like fucking Queen Victoria lecturing her court ladies.
If I had pulled any of this shit when I was a bride-to-be, I would have fucking killed *myself*, before anyone else even had a chance to get to me first.
