It seems like things are in flux right now. You have 18 months. I'd wait at least 6 months before you ask anyone.
@anenglish15: I'd wait to decide for now. If I were you, I'd shelf it for 3-6 months, and see who you feel closest to then. I will say that after I asked whoever to be my bridesmaids, about half of them promptly got a LOT closer to me, and we began hanging out more even though we live three hours away. The other half, I haven't heard much from.
I agree with PPs. Wait until 6-9 months before the wedding before asking anyone. Relationships can change a lot between now and then and you might become really good friends with these new girls and this won't even be an issue! =)

My wedding is in July of 2013, so I have over a year and a half.
So I recently started a new job and haven't been spending a lot of time with my old co workers. One of my old co workers I have been close with for 4 years, but I know she's not really supportive of the wedding. She pretends to be, but I know it's always in the back of her head. I've only spent time with her about 4 times in the last 2 months (I haven't seen her in over a month and have only talked to her twice via text) and I feel like it's always me making the initiative. However, I think she assumes she'll be a bridesmaid because i'm not close to many people.
Then I've been at this new job for 2 months and become really close with 2 girls. We went to a bridal show together and we're going to go look at a venue and they're helping me with questions. They are super involved. Would it be WEIRD to ask these girls who I've only known for 2 months?! Would you be weirded out? They enjoy helping me plan, but is asking to be a bridesmaid too much?
Then I kinda feel bad I haven't asked anyone because these girls from my new job and taking on the responsibilities of bridesmaids so maybe they expect me to ask them? I have over a year till the wedding so when should I make this decision? I got engaged 2 months ago and have purposely been waiting because I had a feeling I would be losing contact with some old friends. Do you think my new friends will think I'm only asking them because I don't have anyone else? Because that's not really what it is, I think my new friends are people I'll be close with for years. I guess I'm just confused!
