so there's a furry bowling event happening tomorrow and i thought about going since around december and now that it's happening in ... a few hours, i'm likely not going anymore becuase i won't know anyone there and probably won't enjoy myself and honestly i'm not so sure i want to spend all the money i would to go there and back plus pay for a bowling lane even if i split it with others
i don't know if i want advice or not i just want to vent about this a bit
-
the event is happening in the city next over so it's a bit of a trip to get there with public transport and even tho theres meetups to go in groups i'm still not super comfortable going by myself because i won't know anyone there
at the same time the prospect of not going is already filling me with remorse bc this small bowling event is the closest thing to a furcon i'll be able to participate in in the foreseeable future and ig the furry community kinda pressures me into wanting to go to one

@squirrel I try to force myself to go to things like this, because I realise:
* If I don't go, I'll probably regret it and think about the possibilities
* If I do go, I'll either have a good time (ya), a mediocre time (the same as what I'd have at home), or a terrible time (oh no...)
so really what I'm choosing is: garunteed regret vs posibility of enjoying yourself

@squirrel @lizardsquid I've always found it's better to regret the things you did do rather than the things you didn't but that might just be me
-
@troubleMoney @lizardsquid please don't guilt me into going
-
@squirrel @lizardsquid not going to do that at all, if you don't want to go then don't go, don't feel obligated to go
-
@lizardsquid this is the dilemma i've been crying about for the past few hours
