I'm very sad. My life sucks I have a party at 9 but no one has come and it is already ten o'clock!!!!! I feel extremely sad and I don't know what to do. I know that some people are coming late but when they do come late and see that there is no one there what will they think of me??? I dont know what to do or think now I just feel like everyone hates me because I hanged the date of the party last minute and now lots of people can't come and I feel like its all my fault even tho there were some external circumstances that has made it to turn out like this. My lottery please do tell me what should I be doing now? No one has come yet and I'm kinda scared!!!! I did all the preparation and food already and wouldnt know what to do if no one comes or worse yet only one or two come cause then they will think I am a bad organizer!!!!!

Maybe this will give you some ease of mind: It is more likely they themselves are running into complications and tight scheduling. Since you announced it last minute it left them with little time to prepare and thus may not make it only for that reason. It doesn't mean they hate you, my Birthday was very empty and even though I was a bit sad I was not too upset, my family is busy and my friends live too far away.
Don't worry, nobody probably hates you for it, for the people that do come, don't break down and keep it together, alright? Just focus on making it work for whoever arrives, no matter how big (or small) the crowd is. :)

Thanks it did turn out better than expected but they stayed too late and when I suggested them to go out to a shop they thought that I was shooing them away its really sad and I don't know what to do. I feel like I am depressed and my life sucks no matter what happens there are so many stresses in life that I feel and I don't know what to do.
Even if the crowd was OK, I couldnt keep them in control and if something had happened and they fell off the balcony it would be myself to blame.

Truly sorry about your party. It a drag that I know. I knew someone who had a party and invited everyone she knew. I was the only one who showed up, with Coke Colas, chips, dips, and a cake for her. Next time don't plan the last minute. Give at least a month in advance.
Have people RSVP so they know that you know they be there. Then about three to two weeks before send another invite, with a time, date; a number to call if they have questions.
Then three days before, call those who RSVP to conform. Two days before prep. Set up the party, put plates, cups out. One day or the day of get up early enough to cook the longest eatery first, then an about a hour or two before do the quickest. Put every thing out about ten to twenties minutes before. Don't forget to dress for the occasion, and smile.
Not everyone hates you. You my dear, Nameless, did not give enough time....

I meant I changed the date last minute because I had an emergency no one could figure it out. Turned out that some people came but they kinda trashed my house and now I feel very very down. Talk about the worst birthday ever. Its like I shouldnt had it in the first place but I didnt do it for me but for other people cause its like a joint party with diferent peoples birthdays and I don't know man. I thank you for understanding - the party turned out better than expected until they started jumping near the balcony and going into other peoples apartments and I am so scared that out apartment will get complained and I will be the one to take the blame. I feel responsible for not being assertive enough to stop them.

Your life won't be suck as you think, because no one show up at your party. That just some miserable experience, and you will get more people coming to your party next time if you can do more promotion, or spread it out word of mouths with some well - known friends to other people. So, maybe the first experience sucks, but at least you learn a lesson, and you would know what to do next time.

Thank you. I think its just the many factors and the streses in life that makes me derpessed. I don't feel like I have any real friends or anything and my family isn't as supportive as they think they are.

Oh I'm so sorry about this. Maybe next time you should plan the party ahead of time so that your friends can still cancel their other plans. You can't just plan a party without thinking of other peoples itinerary.

So you are party animal ! Well why people not interested to join in your party, ever you skip your friend's party like this? They are really satisfied with your friendship? You are giving your best in friendship. People do generally when they feel their friends are little proudy, arrogant, egoist or might be over attitude. Feel free to talk with them about your party and try to find out reasons, why are not able to come. The more you talk freely and comfortably the more you increase chances people join your next party. Mistakes are human, no worries, try again.

hi,
sorry that you couldn't organise it in a better and enjoyable way. But no worries as few of them agreed to reach, though late. Noone is going to hate you for a late invitation and why you think so, we can't invite them as per their timings, it is our call and obviously they can come for the last min. invite or they can refuse. However, I would make the list of 'confirmed' attendees and then only make the food arrangements as I don't believe in wasting food. take care.

I have some food left over and I made it just for them!!! :( Its not that its last minute but that I dont have all the resources to keep in touch with them its kinda sad. But at least some people came and it was an overall good experience until they decided to jump around on the balcony. If I get a complaint from people then it could lead to big things and lawsuits and stuff and I am rather scared.

Who needs friends who trash your place and upset neighbours? Sounds like gate crashers to me.
Well it sounds like it wasn't a complete disaster in the end. Good for you.
My brother and I hired a conference room for a business meeting, laid on a stack of food, set up a visual display for our presentation and had 45 people booked to attend. Not one person came! Haha!

First, stop whining, this doesn't help. Then relax and get away your fear. You cannot run away from the house, right? So don't be afraid that your guests will think bad things about you. This could not happens if you don't show your embarrassment.
So you can say: "Hello, finally somebody here! Other couldn't make it but I'm glad to see you, let's party!" If my words are too stupid, try to figure out something better :D.
And don't give up.
My life sucks - throw out this from your mind!

I'm sorry about your party, what you need is patience and keep positive thinking. Sometimes it happen in certain circumstances.....
But I think, your problem is misunderstanding about information of the party. Don't blame anyone....yeah, that's really suck !!!

Hi there,
One way to know if they are coming is to call or send them a message. Try to convince them whether they're coming or not. If they decide not to come try to still encourage them to come.. I am sure they're your friends so they will understand the last time why you cancelled the party. But this time since you did not advise them of any cancellation pretty sure they are gonna come - just late.
I am sure the party is over by now... Let us know what happened.

hi nameless, Just calm down, If you said you informed all your guest that there is some changes on the date, then maybe they're already on their way there. Just wait, there are people who arrives late. Just wait ok.
update us soon

Thanks. Its the end tho it didn't turn out as expected. :( They got bored and stuff and when they left it they told me I am a good host but it felt like they were just lying to my face and I feel betrayed.

Nameless stop saying that you are not good at this and your life sucks and friends do not come you are a bad organizer.....STOP! This way to treat yourself is not fear to you and to the people that:
care for you because they showed up to your party, they stayed late because I guess they liked the party and the company....
About the late stay of your friends it is normal, even at my age (soon 50) when we have a party at home I have to make my friends understand that it is 2 o'clock in the morning and I would like to go to sleep! I still have my friends...this is all normal do not make such a big deal out of it blaming yourself for this and for that! Cool down, breath and take advantage of the magic moment being with your friends. OK? have fun!
