Brian's ex-girlfriends birthday is this weekend and I know this because yesterday, Brian says to me, "My friend, actually my ex-girlfriend, is celebrating her birthday this weekend and going to this show in Atlanta. She invited me to go- and you, if you want to come, do you want to go?"
So naturally, due to my constant goal to seem nonchalant and cool I say, "Ya, sounds like fun, lets go." Where in actuality, my mind is saying, "What? Go to an ex girlfriends birthday and hang out with all of said ex-girlfriends friends? Ya right, fuck that shit. If I want to feel uncomfortable for a night I can arrange to do that right here in LaGrange, no need to travel an hour to accomplish that."
So, um, ya. I know it really don't matter (as far as being a grown up is concerned) but its awkward enough to be around people you don't know, even more awkward to be around people you don't know and the only reason why your around them is because the guy your dating used to be in a serious relationship with one of them.
Am I wrong to think this would be really awkward or should I just bite the bullet, grow up and go?
