Because the anxiety of going is overwhelming me. But I don’t think they’d understand if I don’t go
It is always up to you what you go to is there anyone going you could explain why to they could then help with an excuse if not could always feel “I’ll”. Is there a specific part your nervous about? Might know ways to reduce it or avoid that part xxx hope this helps

This happens to me all the time.
I get so anxious that I just can’t go.
You don’t have to go if it’s too much, you can say you are feeling sick.
remember the ’ free ’ food…i mean it will be ’ free '.
there is dancing…
you might meet someone… 
it could be fun… 
you would be supporting your cousin…
you can buy a nice dress for the occasion… 
and again the food is ’ free '. 
take care
