AIO I’m thinking of canceling my baby shower
I(F27) am thinking of canceling my baby shower that is scheduled for the end of the month. I’m not sure if I’m overreacting, but I’d like to know what others would do.
I sent out invites and I have received two RSVPs out of everyone invited (one is my mom who is co hosting. I have a fairly small community of people in my life already. I think a huge part of me feeling this way is because I have been already feeling so alone and isolated lately. I generally am the person to show up for others and be the person to reach out. I’ve noticed that throughout this pregnancy (I’ve been hyperaware of feeling lonely) that really no one in my life has reached out other than for things they need.
I guess I wasn’t expecting many people to show, but I was hopeful for a few. Everyone else has responded no. I feel fairly embarrassed and deflated (Not sure if this is the word I’m looking for. Maybe small?). I really don’t want to wake up the day of and be reminded how alone I feel.
I also just want to state that I am thankful for the one other person that wants to show and that even her mom bought off my registry. I don’t want to leave things on a low note.
AIO or should I let it go?
