I'm not sure if I should go. For starters, this friend barely talks to me except to invite me to her birthday party. The last time she talked to me was asking me if I could take photos of her boyfriend's band.
I don't really want to meet her friends. I don't really care about her boyfriend's band. I don't know what present to buy her. If I don't buy her a present is that so bad?

I'd feel like a horrible friend if I don't go but like I said she barely keeps in contact with me.
Things have changed since she last saw me. Post-AS diagnosis things haven't been going smoothly for me, especially when socialising.

Doesn't sound like much of a friend to me....
