17, female. I know this guy, he can be D, who is working his way to the top trying to get famous. He has a record deal and an agent and a manager, he does concerts and he's working on a tour as we speak. Now, my best guy friend, he can be N, loves singing, he is putting on a benefit for his friend who has cancer. It's at a bowling alley, so he will be singing for all the bowlers and stuff. It's gonna be fun no matter how lame I am making it out to be right now. I had gotten D to agree to come and perform with N because he has wanted to work with D ever since I showed N the D's videos on YouTube. D said that it would be awesome and he would love to do it. He would pay the 25 dollars to give to the friend of N's for her medical expenses and he would sing with N and bowl with me and it was supposed to be a great time. My mom talked to D a few days ago and he played completely stupid and asked when it was, he already knew, and when my mom told him the date, "his light bulb came on" and he realized he needed to be in LA to record for his CD for 15 days. I want to know how you can just magically forget a 15 day trip to your favorite place to work on your first ever CD that will promote your first ever tour... it seems fishy to me. It also seems fishy to me that my friend asked D if he could perform at her birthday and he said he will but it will cost her money. He is charging that girl to perform, yet he didn't charge me. I know that there is a difference between a birthday and a fundraiser event but for the fundraiser, he was paying money to perform and for the birthday he is charging to perform. To me, a performance is a performance because he has to plan set lists and practice and take time out to meet with the event planner.I know D from church and Sunday at church, he sat in the row in front of me and I counted that he turned around 11 times to look at me, he would act like he was looking at the back doors but every time, he peeked out of his peripheral vision to see me. Now, D knows that I am mad at him so he messaged me and said that if it was possible, he would fly across the country to come back and perform only if it is three hours because he knows how happy it would make me. I find that to be total bullshit.
My mom is adding all of this stuff up to magically believe that he has a crush on me. He bailed on the benefit because he was told that my best friend who is running it, likes me. Him looking at me all of church. Him saying what he did.
But, the fundraiser is not about me, it's about the poor friend that has cancer and I thought being the Christian man he is, would cancel all things to be there for her and do this for my friend.
I don't know what to think and I am so confused. If anybody can read between the lines or think of anything, any help would be appreciated in trying to figure out what's behind all of this craziness. Thanks! (link)

He might just be embarrassed to tell you that he's actually not allowed to sing at the event. He has an agent and manager and record deal - recording companies do not let their artists perform without their permission. He may have told his agent or manager and gotten reamed for making a decision like that himself. Now he feels stupid for committing himself and doesn't want to admit it. It might not be that, but my sister is a singer and she has the same type of issues from time to time. She can't even go on auditions for singing shows without consulting her manager, and they don't always let her go. That may be the case for your friend. Maybe there is something else he can do like record a message with a couple of lines from a nice song for the friend with cancer, sign some pictures or a card or something, or even post something on youtube for the friend.
Anyway, ask him about it and talk to him about it, don't just guess about it, because you'll always come up with the worst things that might not even be close to the truth.

Thank you, if I could rate a 100, this would be just the answer to do so!
