So, my birthday is this weekend (woop, woop!), and my friends are throwing a party for me on Saturday since my actual birthday is on Sunday. I've been dating/seeing this one special guy for three months now. My natural instinct when my friends told me about this event was to invite him. To me, it's been a good amount of time to finally introduce him to my close friends. I talk about him all the time, I like him! It'd be great to finally get to show him off to my friends and make good memories with him.
Here's the thing. I've known about this party for a few weeks now, and I've brought it up to him a few times to let him know to see if he's free that weekend. He's been really confusing though because when I told him about it the first time, he told me he was coming. A little while later, I was talking about the details of the party, and he told me he didn't know what he was doing that weekend anymore because he has a cousin and a close friend who have a birthday those days as well. And FINALLY, this week I brought it up one last time and he told me he doesn't think he'll be celebrating with his cousin this weekend for some reason that I don't know. Don't know about his friend. But he said he'd let me know.
I'm getting confused and also really irritated/tired of trying to know if he's coming or not. Of course, if he doesn't come, I'll be upset. But my friends keep telling me that if he doesn't come, I shouldn't really let him ruin my birthday or the party. It's a lot easier than it sounds.
I don't want to be too blunt and tell him that he needs to give me an answer immediately, but at the same time I don't want to get my hopes up.
Maybe I'm just in over my head. ;-(
