I was confused last night.I had promised my hubby that i would go along with him to his friend's engagement party.He is a closest friend he has.But unfortunately,I was also invited by my best friend for her son's send off party.He is leaving for the US.now the problem as both the places are situated at opposite directions and it takes me an hour to reach from my home.It was a tough time for me.But after thinking for an hour, i chose to go to my fried's party.She was more important to me.My hubby was upset and we left alone to our own choices.What would you do in such kind of situations?have you ever faced such a tough time where you had to make a choice?

I guess he will understand you. Though you guys are married you still have your individuality I guess which should be kept so that you will not lose the real you in the process.

I do always get into the situation from time to time especially on our special occasion like family gathering. Both parent also set the same day for the family gathering, so what should we do ?? So the option we have made is 1 hour for each of the function. If you were to ask which one first, then is base on yours justification, if still can't, then get a coin and let the god choose. Just thought of sharing on my method.

Not trying to say you were wrong...but I would have gone with my husband. Not to avoid a conflict...but personally, I feel that I would be able to explain things to my friend and meet her son the next day (if that was possible). But it wouldn't be nice to miss an engagement party unless it was an emergency. That's how I feel...but you are a better judge of the situations in your life and are able to make a better choice. My response was based on how 'I' would think if I were in a similar situation.
