so_contagiously Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 i have to make a decision by friday... well i got invited to my friend's sweet 16 this coming sunday. its not the big kind of sweet 16, just a special bbq party with some of my other friends. she changed the date of her party on sunday for me coz i couldnt go to the date she originally told us. BUT then something came up this week. yesterday, i found out one of my closest friends is going to another country for a month. he's leaving on sunday, which is the same date as my other friend's party. my leaving friend is really important to me, and I want to be there when he leaves to say goodbye. but then i feel bad if i dont go to the party coz she changed the date for me, and she was really looking forward to seeing me there. what should i do? ](*,) Link to comment
Haven Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 You only found out yesterday that he's leaving in 1 week for a month.. yet he's one of your closest friends? I think you should definitely go to your friend's party.. I mean, she moved the date just for you and everything. The guy who's leaving didn't even bother to tell you earlier about his leaving, right? Anyway, I'm not sure why it would take all of Sunday to say goodbye? Couldn't you even do both? Like maybe say goodbye to him before the party, or have him drop by or something.. Goodbyes usually last about 5 minutes, plus he'll be back in a month.. Link to comment
so_contagiously Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 i knew my friend was leaving since two months ago but i wasnt aware of the exact date, and when i meant saying bye, i meant going to the airport with him. the party starts at 4 pm until 10 pm and my friend is leaving at 6 pm. and i wanted to hang out with him for the last time the whole sunday.. and the thought of him leaving on that day doesn't put me in the "having a good time" mood. So i dont think i can have fun at the party anyway. Link to comment
DN Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 You made a commitment to your friend and I think you should keep it - especially since she changed the date of the party to accommodate you. Link to comment
bhzmafia Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hang out with your friend all of saturday, then just have a quick goodbye on sunday and go to the party Link to comment

Seriously though, you should be happy that he's not actually moving.. it really sucks when that happens.. at least he's coming back Btw, is your username from the song by Acceptance? Because I love that song. Link to comment
Ians Mommy Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I would hang out with him all day before the party and since the party is 6 hours long, I would just ask her if she would mind too much if you showed up an hour late that way you would have the entire morning and part of the afternoon to hang out with him.

I guess she'll understand..i hope she will.. Link to comment
