When my fear of people and social anxiety disorder hurts people I like, that is when I want to get help most of all.

You and I are so much alike. Of course, I wish our similarities were more along the lines of being rich and popular.
Good luck with your thing.
Ouch. That’s happened to me before. Not with the cake, but it’s happened.
Yum, chocolate cake. (I just missed a brownies in the cafeteria email. That hurts, too.)
Missing a party isn’t the end of the world. Sure, you probably should have called to say you weren’t coming, but a simple, sincere apology should suffice.
I think she could have at least called you to see if you were okay rather than write about it in her blog for all to see. Better yet, she could have let the boyfriend in on the cake surprise prior to getting it to see if it was as good an idea as she thought it would be. I know you feel bad enough about missing the party without being put on a guilt trip for not being there to help make her feel good about getting you a cake. Things like this happen, I’m sorry it happened to you.

I figured we were just internet broken up
I realized, too late, that we didn’t have each other’s phone numbers. Otherwise I would have called.
No worries. I wish I’d known beforehand about the anxiety. That’s where I need help - overcoming my sensitivity and ginormous mouth.
auntie k - there are details you don’t know about. Please don’t judge me without all the information. You make a good point, but please realize that I’m not out to make anyone look like a villain here. Sure, I could’ve handled it differently, but none of us are perfect.
