My new friends and old friends don't all get along. Couldn't they do it once, for me?

I'm thinking of having a party. I want to join my new friends and my old friends. But some of the people I want to invite don't get along with others I want to invite. One of my friends said she wouldn't even come if I invite this one girl. What should I do? I hear that I should invite who I want and then others say I shouldn't. I just wanted to have all my friends, but some of them aren't acting like friends. I mean, if they were my friends, couldn't they stand a person they don't like for just one night, for me?

Bev Conolly agony auntI would never give in to a "friend" who demanded that I abandon someone else. That's the behaviour of a control freak. True friends don't make that kind of request.

Beyond that, invite whom you like and ask everyone to RSVP. If anyone decides that the presence of someone else at your party is enough to keep them away, you know all that you need to know about that friend.

If someone doesn't want to come because your other friends are there, that person is saying that you're less important to them than their petty jealousies.

Id say invite who you want, if one of your friends doesnt come, its her loss. Your other friends may end up getting on if they meet at the party.
