ok so my birthday was like a month ago..i started planning my sweet 16 but couldnt do it the date i wanted because one of my good friends is having hers that day. I was ok with that and decided to wait until June because my aunt who works there said i can get a deal this one weekend. I checked with everyone to make sure i didnt interfere..my one good friend is having hers the day after mine..im having mine on a friday. Today she asked me if i can change mine because she was talking to her mom and her mom doesnt like the idea because she said it will be hard for people to go to to parties in one weekend. She asked me to change mine because she cant change hers. I was like WHTA? her dad works at the firehouse (thats where shes havin hers) and i know she could probably change it if she feels that way. Every weekend there seems to be a sweet 16..i have to wait 2 1/2 months after my actual bday to have my party..so i think ive sacrificed enough. I dont mean to sound stubborn or anything..its just im sick of accomadating others...plus i can get a good deal on the catering that friday night..and i have double header softball games on saturdays..between everyone elses parties,plays for the schools,and talent shows,this is my open date and i dont wanna change! do you agree? how should i say this to her
snitches6945 answered Tuesday April 5 2005, 3:53 pm: you should jus tell her that you have had to wait all this time and that you have a full schedule and you should be able to have your party that weekend. if it bothers her so much then she should change it. she can replan jus like you did.

Those who can't go to both will just have to decide if she doesn't want to change hers.You know that phrase You can't please everybody. It's true. You waited long enough. Have a nice party, and a belated happy birthday :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]

tell your friend " I have waited 2 1/2 months to have my birthday and i dont think i am gonna wait another week to have mine if at all i think you should postpone yours!"

This is going to be on of the greatest night of your life, and im sure your friend can respect that and work around it. Plan your party and you'll be fine. Good luck with the greedy friend 2!

xoXCoNfUdLeDXox answered Monday April 4 2005, 8:23 pm: hey just tell her the truth explain to her that you don't really feel like changing and also it's not just that it's also that you can't because your so busy. and it's not fair because you have already sacrificed you bday party. Also ask her why would it be hard for people to go to 2 parties in one weekend?They would probably like it. I know i wouldn't mind!!!Well i think you should just still have your party the day you planned. i hope i helped!

Tell her that you can't change your because you were talking with your mom and that's the only day you can have it it is a little lie but it is for your own good [ hottie1141259's advice column | Ask hottie1141259 A Question ]
