Help what should i do, I don't want to go to a new years eve party because its a couple's event!?
As I see it, Marsh, you have two choices: we ALL do: 1. A little introspection and truthful self-inquiry as to the REAL reason we are feeling the way we are about a situation, check it's validity, then replace the old negative thinking with a new, positive one and work with it until IT becomes the new way of thinking, or, the habit to replace the old, negative one. Psychologists tell us that to form a new groove in the brain - a new habit/way of thinking, we have to do the same (new) thing at least 11 times in a row. 2. Why give in to the conditioning society has given us? Why not think and feel for our truest selves? (as long as it does not harm you or anyone else) - why not tune in to how you are feeling and choose to honour that - what's wrong with staying home with a good movie and some good things to eat, or have one or more friends over to share the same? And what is New Year's even or a Christmas Party other than a particular ritual in a particular cultural setting? If you choose staying home and it turns out it didn't suit you after all, you can chalk it up to getting to know yourself better and think about doing it different next year.
