[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Offer to pay. How bout "we really want you to be there. If I pay for your flight can you swing splitting a room with so and so?"  That shows your commitment to your friendship. Forget guilt on anyone's part. Just do whatyoucan now to achieve your goal and if it doesn't work out that's ok too but you'll be glad you didn't let it go. [/quote]

+1.
And also, something else.  I had a friend getting married, but she had a guy friend who was harassing me.  She did not know this (no one did because I was young and thought I could handle it alone if I just kept my mouth shut.  Stupid, but that's another story).  He was going to be there and I didn't want to potentially mess up her day if there was any scene (the guy loved to make scenes).

So that sounds like a bizarre and unique situation, but what I'm getting at is there are situations going on in people's lives that you don't know about.

But mostly, I think it may be the time/energy/$/mental energy as a single person that she'd have to spend to go, when she doesn't even get you to herself--no one-on-one time.  It's rough.  I like this suggestion above because it lessens the $ and some of the mental costs.[/quote]
