I'm not good at turning down invitations..pls help.

Question

today is my friend and his daughter's bday but i am busy on moving to my apartment.

I forgot that their bday is today and it's R.S.V.P.

I texted him couple weeks ago that I'm going to his party with my wife and son.

Along the way, I forgot about it because of the moving part.plus my wife has to go to work today.

how would you guys handle this situation?it's easy but i don't want him to get upset because i told him that we are going then the last minute i'm backing up..

Answer 1

I think be honest will helps. Go to his house one day for a dinner with a gift. He will be very happy

Answer 2

Just be honest. It's call life and in life as they say "Sh*t Happens". Honest is the best policy. Just pay them an unexpected visit someday and take them out for a treat at your expense. It's hard keeping track of a lie so just tell him the truth because if you lie and he found out about it then that would make matters even worst. And as they say you'll be going from a bad situation to worst one. He'll probably be upset and disappointed but you can redeem yourself by taking them out to dinner or just send them an unexpected gift at an unexpected time.

Answer 3

first of all, say you're srry for backing out at the last minute. then say u have to do something and you're wife is at work. then say that you'll stop by later after you're done with stuff and your wife gets home

Answer 4

Say Sorry, I need to help my Mum/Family.

Don't say why. Say it's your busines and not his.

Answer 5

Good ole' stand by response.  We were on our way to your house and "child" vomitted in the back seat.  I feel so bad because I didn't even notice that "child" had a fever.  I will catch you later birthday boy!

Answer 6

definetly just stop by for the most and  hour

explain your situation . come when the party

starts so it seems like your interested.give

the gift talk with your friends just enjoy your

self and after about an hour just confront your

friend. your friend cant be mad if your telling

the truth. i love situations like this because

it shows your who your real friends are[=

Answer 7

If you can't possibly make it, then the best policy is to just confess, let him know that you screwed up and can't make it. If it's not something that you do regularly, he should understand. If it is, you'll need to work on that.

Answer 8

just tell him the truth. say oh my gosh i am so sorry bt i totaly blanked! im moving into my aparatment today. ill make it up to you. but u have to own up to the prmosie you make. if hes your friend, he'll understand, if your his friend you'll make it up to him:)
