Not sure if this is the right place to post...

As what the title says. It seems like a strange thing to do. One of my friends from high school has been dating a guy for less than a year, he's her first bf. She's been really distant ever since going out with this guy, which is unlike her, always turning down plans to meet because she's busy with bf. Seems like he's the centre of her universe (based on her socials and their monthly anniversary posts). I don't have a bf but I can understand wanting to spend time with SO. I'm not jealous or envious in any way, he sounds like a decent guy so I'm happy she's happy with him. I just think it's odd that one would not talk or at least distance themselves from their friends after getting a partner.

Hi! Not sure if this is the right place to ask tbh, but was wondering if anyone’s been to a themed ball (ballroom and ballgown ball), and in this case a fantasy/romantasy ball and what your experience(s) were like.

There’s a ball event, the first in my country I’m pretty sure, and it sounds awesome and super cool but the only major thing holding me back is the cost. It’s $285 pp (or just under $300 with payment fees), and price includes drinks, finger food, entertainment.

I was wondering if anyone has gone to an event like this, what it was like and if it was worth it. Did you like or not like it? Any highlights? What the atmosphere and vibe was like? I’m quite introverted, although I do like going out with my girls every now and then. That being said, I can also get overstimulated in large and loud crowds, so you’d be unlikely to catch me at a nightclub or music festival.

Would it be worth it? Imo, I think it’s a once in a lifetime (and the only other balls I know of happen only in Europe, which realistically I’d probably never go to). It’s also something I wouldn’t do or go to in my thirties (I’m 21). The only thing is that it’s quite pricey.
