Here's the situation. You hate this person who is about to celebrate her birthday (but she has no idea that you hate or maybe discreetly). Now, his loyal suitor plans to give her a birthday bash and asks you to participate. He will take care of everything and all you have to do is be there. Will you accept his invitation or not?Its quite difficult for me to choose. I appreciate the effort of the suitor and don't want to disappoint him. But i also don't want to take part on the activity that will make the person i hate happy. If you were in this case, what will you do?

It's a very difficult question as I don't know why you hate this person. I don't actually hate anyone so it's difficult to answer this question effectively. If the person throwing the party is someone close to you and someone you care about I would attend the party for their sake and put my dislike of their partner behind me for that evening unless there is a specific reason you don't like that person like they were rude to you and told you to your face they don't want to see you every again - then of course I'd avoid going. Apart from that I can't see any reason why you shouldn't try to make your friend happy who is going to all that trouble to make a special celebration for his loved one. I hope you make the right decision for you :)

Actually, we used to be good officemates before. But then, something happened in one of our engagements and it was her fault though she never admitted it. It greatly affected our relationship and now, we're just casual with each other. As for the guy, no, we're not close. But i know how the guy loves the girl so much cause he is also our officemate. It was very difficult for me to say no to the guy...
Anyway, thanks for the comment. =)

If I were in that situation where I wasn't close to the other guy so much anyway I would make a suitabl excuse not to attend or say you have some prior engagement to attend and will try to attend and then just don't attend. If it's all office related it might be better to keep things business like and they can't hold it against you if you have another engagement or if an "emergency" crops up on the day of the party and can't attend :) Good luck.

Hmm I think I have some work to do at my home, and I better to finish it before my client get angry. That would be my excuse to avoid that.
I may come to the surprise event, but hell no to do the preparations.

Well, you can decline the invitation since the suitor itself is not a very close friend. You can make a valid excuse not to attend since your against it anyway. And I would'nt think you're gonna enjoy the party if you dislike the person having it. This is my opinion, it's totally your decision to attend or not. Maybe this party will help you patch things up with your officemate.....

I would have to come up with a fool-proof excuse not to make it.
I wouldn't feel comfortable being at the party knowing that i don't like the celebrant. I would feel "plastic" and pretending is not one of my best assets. I wouldn't enjoy being in that party.
