Friend from years back invited me to a party.. mixed feelings..

Ehhh I want to have an open mind. I do miss the bonfires, art, fire-spinners, other hula hoopers, the music and camp outs.. i do miss having friends who aren’t salivating for the next tier of social status.

I dunno.. I also don't want to invite a bunch of drama back into my life. I don’t miss the frequent social pressure to do drugs and/or be poly. I disliked the pressure to apologize for ‘selling out’ by going back to school and having ‘mainstream’ goals/dreams, as if I owed that tribe an explanation.

But nothing changes if nothing changes, right?
Can’t hurt to go.. probably lol..

It sucks because if I go and it’s not my thing I’m stuck there for a number of hours. @Nebula

@WhateverWorks there's no escaping?

Exactly. John would be fine giving me a ride there, but he’d probably want to leave and come back later, not hang out with a bunch of strangers while I mingle lol…. @Nebula

He won’t want to stay in the area on ‘standby’ lol. we don’t live close to the party. That’s why I’d have to be there for at least a few hours. @Nebula
