[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Power through. I’ve been in this predicament and feel better when I power through and am happy to be out with friends.[/quote] Same. I think you should go. I'd want to know that my friend was struggling. Multiple cancellations would make me feel like she didn't care about me or our friendship and I may be inclined to step back to give space. I'd want to know how you really felt so I could be supportive or at least understanding. If the worst case happens and being honest and spending time with your friends is miserable, you'll have more data for making a decision next time. But presumably you've stayed in touch with these friends for a reason. If the roles were reversed, wouldn't you be honored to hear how a friend was truly doing?[/quote] This is what I would have said -- I am sad that it's turned into a FaceTime, but I hope it is helpful for you, OP. That would make me feel worse and more self-conscious. [/quote]
