I am not a party person

I went to a wedding reception yesterday with my parents and my two brothers. I was able to greet someone of my cousins and share a few laughs, but it was a struggle to keep a happy demeanor all night. I am not an extrovert, and I don't enjoy peer pressure to participate when I don't want so you can imagine how horrible it is to have your relatives putting you on the spot and telling you to dance when you don't want to and feel like a bad person for refusing. It is not good. But I was not pressured last night which I am grateful. I am still sick so I wanted to come home a few minutes after we arrived. I am proud of myself for staying strong and not making my family leave early than they wished.
