It can be hard to prioritize going to a friend’s birthday party when there’s something you would rather be doing.

If you wanted to go to a concert that was at the same time as a friend’s birthday party, which one would you go to?

That’s the question the woman in today’s story is dealing with, and she’s not sure what to do.

Let’s read the whole story.

AITA if i skip my friend’s birthday party for a concert

I (25F) have a friend (23F), who’s birthday is coming up and she is having a party for her birthday.

But her party is the same day as a concert of an artist that i’ve wanted to see for a long time, but i would have to take the train to where the concert is, which is a 2 hour train ride.

At first i wasn’t going to go to the party and just go to the concert because this friend has never been to any of my birthday events that i have invited her to or she always bails on me last minute.

But then i decided i would go to the party in the morning and then leave early and go to the concert in the evening, and i told her that is what i was going to do.

Her friend doesn’t like this plan.

And she got upset with me because in her mind im missing the whole day instead of trying to split my time evenly.

And recently she has been throwing shade or making subliminal comments about me on social media.

And now im considering not going to her party all together.

So AITA if i don’t go to her party and go to a concert instead?

She doesn’t sound like a very good friend. Skip her party.

Let’s see how Reddit reacted to this story.

This person calls the friend “selfish.”

She’s growing apart from this friend.

She should go to the concert.

It’s all about the gift.

This friendship has run its course.

Not all of them are meant to last forever.
