So today was meant to be the day was gonna invite a group of people to a small gathering at my house. I made a silly website that’d show all the info and i’d go around personally inviting them.

I think they just liked the idea of being invited more than the event itself. I had around 10 people explicitly tell to my face that they were coming.

Noone followed through.

I probably fucked up somewhere in the process but it hurts nonetheless; It was the first event I had organized for a group. I wanted to share my world with the people around me. I wanted to showcase my dogs and my garden.

At least i’ve learned something, I got to cook some meat for my family. But damn, this feels isolating.

    Ten people saying yes to your face then not showing up makes me think something else is going on here. Did you send a text the day before, too?

      It could be a date or time was wrong, or people were too exhausted to go by the time it came around. Communication would be useful though.
