Dilemma
43 Answers
My oldest friend (and mentor, ex boss, person who set me on my career path, and whom I love dearly) is 50 in a few weeks. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for him. The plan is to have a lovely meal in a hotel near their home "oop north". It will be adults only.
My difficulty is that it is Mr BM's birthday that weekend and it is also a contact weekend. It is not fair on No 1 step son (given his issues) to leave him with a babysitter and not fair on the babysitter either.
So the choice is either I don't go or I go alone.
I'm torn. On the one hand it is Mr BM's bday. On the other it is my mate's big 5 - 0 and he really is a close mate. What would you do?

Have you been invited?
If you haven't........no problem...stay at home.
If you have....you can't go can you!
MrBH doesn't know your oldest friend....does he?
I would be truly p1ssed off if my wife took me to another guy's birthday do on MY birthday..............what would YOU say if Mr BM took you to HIS oldest girlfriend's birthday bash on YOUR birthday?

Sqad - read the question again. BM is not suggesting taking her partner with her. It's either she goes alone or doesn't go.
I WOULDN'T have a problem if my OH met up with his oldest friend (and mentor, ex boss, person who set him on his career path, and whom he loved dearly) It would be a no brainer...
