I think I’m going to bail on that 1st birthday this weekend. The only people I know at this birthday are the parents and they’re going to be busy socialising with everyone, and I’ll probably feel awkward in this setting being childless. I’ll just message the day before that I’m sick and don’t want to spread germs. Does this make me a bad friend? I’ll plan a catch up with this friend in a few weeks and still give a present then.
