I was a groomsman in my best friends wedding and now his wife is divorcing him. I feel like an idiot.

Our friendship basically started in middle school and we were pretty close throughout high school. We went to different colleges, but when I finished school I moved back to our hometown and he was already there. We had a few years where we were drinking buddies and would mess around, but then he got married in 2023, and then I pretty much stopped seeing him. <br><br>His wife served him with divorce papers in January 2024, and I wasn’t really surprised to hear that, but I did feel pretty guilty because I felt like I was a bad friend for not wanting to be close to him anymore. We’ve only talked a couple of times since the divorce papers and he is obviously really upset, so now I feel like an asshole because I don’t know what to say. <br><br>I don’t know if I’m projecting my own past on him, but I honestly didn’t think he would make a good husband. I know it sounds shitty, but I thought she was better for him.
