Anyone else unable to turn down invitations without feeling massively guilty?

theguywithnousername [Edit] [Delete] 16:39, 17 April '08

Tomorrow I've been invited to someone's birthday get together. This is a girl who I was briefly quite close to last Summer, but have maybe seen twice at most in the last six months.

She's emailed a few friends (and there aren't many on the email) who "she feels closest to" and invited them out tomorrow night.

Now I have to be honest and say I'm a bit surprised she's invited me as I've not really given her much thought over the past few months and was under the impression we'd drifted apart.

I'm not sure I want to go (especially as the one mutual friend she's invited can't make it) but I feel really guilty about saying no as I have no other plans for tomorrow. I'm also aware she tends to get very depressed at times and this makes me feel guiltier about planning to not go.

So thoughts:

a) Am I being a cunt by not going? Am I cunt anyway?

b) Why do I get so stupidly guilty about just saying no?

c) Does everyone else have this problem?
