22 male and 23 female

22M Hey, I've been dating my girlfriend, who’s 23, for about six months. A week ago, she invited me to a Friendsgiving event. I haven’t seen her much lately because she’s been busy with family. The plan is for everyone to hang out and then go out for drinks afterward. I work full-time, and I'm not really into drinking. Yesterday, I checked in with her to see if she still wanted me to come, and she mentioned that she doesn’t know many people there and that everyone will be drinking. Am I overthinking this? I can’t shake the feeling that she might not actually want me to be there, but when I asked her, she promised that wasn’t the case.

As he stood in the kitchen, the aroma of roasted turkey wafted around him, filling him with warmth. Doubt swirled in his mind, but he remembered his girlfriend’s smile. “I’d love to come,” he texted, heart racing. That night, he arrived to laughter and kindness, finding that sometimes, just being there is enough.
