Lack of interested friends
This Saturday is my 21st birthday. For the last 3 weeks I have been telling my friends that I want to go to a certain restaurant, so keep the date open. Here it is, 5 days before, and only about 3 people have said that they want to go. I sent an email to them and the rest of my friends telling them that, due to lack of interest, I was cancelling dinner. Is that going too far? Should I go anyways? I would appreciate some input, since I don't want this landmark day to suck.
