Opinion

My husband's friend invited us to a party on New Years Eve, in Manhattan...I have no desire to go. Partially cause i'm not comfortable with us driving to/from manhattan on the EVE....Am I overreacting? I am extra paranoid with stuff now that i've got my baby in my belly. I'd just rather stay local and be safe.

Re: Opinion

I don't blame you. NYC on NYE is amature night - well its everywhere. If you don't have to go, don't.

Re: Opinion

You aren't being paranoid. I am not a big NYE person anyway.... and the thought of being in a car driving, early in the morning, with others who may have been drinking and are stupid enough to drive makes me uneasy. And ever since becoming pregnant, I too have become more "sensitive" when it comes to driving in general - I prefer using that word instead of paranoid .Chat Icon Needless to stay, we are staying at home this year.

Re: Opinion

I do not want to drive from Port Jefferson to East Islip for a New Years Eve party, so I do not blame you. DH and I are at odds over it.

We're going to a house party at my Father In Law's and it is usually well over 150 people and I'm nervous about being in that big of a crowd with my belly now protruding as much as it is. I can't imagine being in Manhattan on NYE!Chat Icon Chat Icon You're a brave girl!

I don't blame you for feeling that way at all. I never felt safe going out on New Years and now I feel that way more than ever.

I've had 2 different New Year's invites, one of which was less than 10 miles away and turned down both. I want to stay home and relax.
