tommorow i have plans to go this scary haunted house with one of my friends. all of my best friends are going to a haunted cornmaze tommorow and they asked me if i could come and i said i already had plans! but they are my best friends and it would be soooo much fun if i went to the cornmaze with them. im not really exited about going to the haunted house and im really dissapointed because i cant invite the girl to the cornmaze instead because she already went. but i cant miss out a night with my best friends because they will come back with a new batch of inside jokes and i want to be a part of it. i want to make up an excuse and tell my friend why i cant go to the haunted house but she'll find out i went to the cornmaze and will be pissed at me. i dont want to lose my friendship with her but i dont want to waste a night thinking about how much fun i would be having with my best friends at the cornmaze. should i go to the haunted house with my friend? or should i listen to what my heart wants to do (which is the cornmaze with my bestfriends)?? if i go to the cornmaze i need to make up a lie so i can cancel plans with my friend. what do i say to her??? i was thinking of telling her that my mom thinks its a waste since all you do is walk through the haunted house and your done in 8-10 minutes, but what if my friend doesnt buy it??!! or what if she wants to just go somewhere else instead... but i also dont want to betray her like that but i want to be with my bestfriends. i dont know what to do.. any ideas??
You can go to the haunted house earlier, and then go to the cornmaze later. Go to the haunted house at let's see 5 o' clock, for example. Since it's not that long of a walk through it, you go in, get out and then explain to your friend you've also been invited to a cornmaze thing also and that you promised them you'd join them, but if she'd like to come along, that'd be great!
I seriously just wouldn't cancel on her, that's rude and lying gets you no where, and she'll most likely find out, and her feelings'll get hurt. Plus, you made plans with her first, you can't just bag her on them.

Number one, I don't think any type of lying is your best answer. Second, I think the best thing to do would be do invite your friend to the cornmaze. So what if she already went... she can go again. Unless she really doesn't hang out with your best friends then it could be a problem. I completely understand with worrying about the new jokes and stuff if you miss something. The right thing to do is to go with your friend since you did promise first but I would try, since you really don't want to go to the house, is invite her along. Tell her a bunch of kids are going tonight and maybe you could do the house another night... it is, after all, 3 weeks from Halloween, it should still be open. But I definitely would not lie because you would regret it in the end!
