Myself and 2 other friends have been invited to our neighbour's to watch Eurovision tonight. Obviously she's preparing to host, and probably bought food & drink by now.
One of our group cancelled yesterday, saying she's not well. The friend who's hosting, messaged on our group last night to ask if we (remaining 2) were still coming. We both said Yes. I've now seen the other one has cancelled (due to being 'too busy'🤔), leaving only me!
This affects the whole feel of the evening. A few drinks, catching up watching Eurovision with a group sounds ideal, but now there's only two of us I'm not so sure. She's lovely, the one who's hosting, but definitely the quieter of the group and I feel the onus will be on me to keep the chat going. Much easier if we're all chipping in!
I'm not sure whether to message the host to suggest re-arranging, or just go along. Knowing her as I do, I feel she'll have been getting ready for us all day, and spent money on food & drink. I'd feel very bad, her having gone to a lot of effort for nothing, and am a bit annoyed with the 2nd person for cancelling last minute.
Would you all just go along, even though you'd now be the only one?
