Should I go along with my friend's plan or say no?

[otherlander]

My friend wants to go with me on a train to another town where two of her friends live. I've never met these two friends of hers before but she wants me to go to their town with her. I should mention that my friend and I are girls and these two friends are guys. It's not a bad town that she wants me to go to; it's actually pretty nice. But I'm just kind of nervous/paranoid about the whole thing for some reason. Should I go or not? Would you?

2. Always trust your instincts.

If it feels wrong to you, it probably feels wrong for a reason.

6. But what if my *reasons* are wrong?

What if I'm subconsciously being a horrible bigot about this whole thing and feeling more nervous because I know one of her friends is schizophrenic and from a poor family?

7. Worst case scenario,

If you go with your instincts and some unresolved, subliminal biases are motivating you, no one is harmed and you get an opportunity to examine your motivations in a non-confrontational manner hopefully launching a bit of personal evolution in the bargain.

If you ignore your instincts and harm befalls you or anyone else, you will spend considerable amounts of your time and energy in regret, possibly for years to come.

Truly, - it's one evening: It doesn't have to be the defining moment of your adult life. Trust your instincts and if you're worried that you may have ulterior motivations for your fear, then spend the evening working on those fears and their motivations instead.

Trust your instincts.

Always.

10. Yes

Depends on your friend, of course. If you think she's setting you up for some really bad times, then no, of course.
