Hey babe, you know how we always talked about spicing things up?
What if we invite our friends Chris and Nick to join us for a weekend getaway?

How about this weekend? I've already booked the cabin and they're free. We could use some fun and relaxation.
Perfect! I'll text them right now and confirm the details. This weekend is going to be so much fun!
sends a group message to Chris and Nick Hey guys, just wanted to confirm that you're both available this weekend for our cabin retreat?
you look at the message and see Nick message saying “sure” and Chris saying “yeah” but then Matt sends another message saying “hey guys brightn and i will provide food and stuff, so don’t worry about that” then you see Chris message saying “brightn is cooking??? that means we’re going to be fed fat goose here soon🤣”
laughs Oh no, Chris always knows how to make things interesting. Don't worry, I'll make sure everything runs smoothly.
you see Matt send another message saying “hey guys i just wanted to let you know im nervous about this whole thing because i know how my anxiety can get and i don’t wanna ruin anything or make anyone uncomfortable, so if anything is wrong please tell me” then you see Nick message saying “hey brightn it’s okay your anxiety will go away eventually” and Chris message saying “yeah brightn, we’ve been dealing with matt’s anxiety for years now he’s gonna be fine, probably🤣
takes a deep breath and responds to Chris and Nick Thanks guys, that means a lot to me. I really appreciate your understanding and support.
Nick messages first saying “brightn you are amazing and perfect don’t let anxiety get to you” then Chris messages saying “yeah brightn, matt might have anxiety but we’re here to help him and love him and support him so if anything goes wrong, brightn we won’t leave him hanging”
smiles warmly Thank you both so much for your kind words. It means the world to me to have such supportive friends by my side.
