Mates stag do

I have been depressed in the past and found it hard to be in touch with people. there are lots of possible reasons and I would go if I were you.

See if your wife can book the weekend off, if she can, go!

In the past, i've gone for part of a stag do, not all of it (due to family commitments).

E.g. if it's 2 night; just go for the first night. If it's local to you, maybe just go for the evening and then travel home.

Personally - i'd go

I wouldnt go personally, its 200 quid to fork out for someone who never bothers to contact you. I was invited to a stag do a few years ago by a very old friend, but one whom I rarely saw any more. I made the choice not to go, as similarly it was a weekender and Iwas looking at forking out about 400 quid for the posh hotel etc. Tbh I dont think I was missed, he had his close circle of relevant friends and was happy doing what he was doing without missing me! That said, I still appreciated the invite

If you are questioning it now mate, do you really wanna go ????...been in the same situ. Just ask yourself - Is this guy a mate who you want to keep a friendship with or not?

If you don't go ..friendship will go completely

If you do go ..friendship may still go when he gets married and gets different friends, but u may stay friends...

Go with what you feel deep down....you will know:)

No didn't go

Sadly, only seen the stag in question twice since, one on a 'mop' up stag do at his house, and the other at rthe wedding. Not for want of trying though

looks like I made the right decision really

Glad you didn't go and regret going.

I've been there, happened to me last year. but at the end of the day, he's been your mate for 30 years despite the drift. The last time you saw him was his sons christening - now its his stag. He obvioulsy still values your friendship enough to make sure you're there for the big moments in his life. Don't bail on him now, but maybe give him a call and explain your worries.
