Not ridiculous at all to feel the way you do! It is hard as an adult to meet new folks but still you could look out to see if there are Yorkie meet ups in your area or small dog meet ups - hiking groups or walking groups. You could get involved in performance sports with your pup - lots of different activities that range from very mild physical effort to more strenuous.

In terms of your friend I would give her a call and simply ask her who are her bridesmaids and if it turns out it is family then so be it.
