Should I go to his sisters babyshower?

[Anonymous]

Bfs sister invited me to her baby shower next week. I’ve met her like one time and me and my boyfriend have only been together a year. I feel like it’s something I shouldn’t attend. Any help would be appreciated. I would hate to ruin the memory of this if we were to break up.

Hmm, that is a bit of a tricky situation girl. On the one hand, it's really nice of the sis to invite you to such an important family event after only meeting once. That shows she wants you to be part of their lives long-term.

But you do make a fair point about not wanting to be in photos and memories if things don't work out with your guy down the line. A baby shower is pretty personal and you're still pretty new to the fam.

My advice would be to politely decline for now, but offer to send a gift with your boyfriend or something. You can always say you have other plans but want her to know you're thinking of her.

In the future though, definitely try to get to know sis better and keep those family bonds going strong. Maybe offer to help out after the baby comes or go visit together sometime.

I'm sure she'll understand - these things take time. But keep showing you care about being supportive without forcing it too soon. You've got this girl!
