Debating on whether or not to see a concert for the first time

[fallingbehind]

I have severe misanthropic tendencies and an aversion to public spaces, but an artist that Ive really enjoyed since 2018 (though I dont listen to music much at all anymore) is coming to the country Im currently in, and will be performing around a week before my ctb date.

Ive never gone to a concert before, I went to one party when I was 19, and the embarrassment I felt from being there still lingers with me. I know that I will feel really awkward and out of place at her concert, but, maybe I should just get that one experience? Not sure.

If you want. You might even get a seat and place near the back of the crowd if you're not too keen on being up front. That way there's no one behind you and everyone will be mostly looking forward at the musician in front of you.

I say go for it, it's worth it. You deserve to be there just as much as anyone else. Remind yourself that while there may be moments of discomfort (and expecting that reality beforehand helps you adjust without being caught off guard), you'll also get to experience something truly meaningful and wonderful for you. Maybe it's a sign?
