Hi, last week, it was my grandma's 72nd bday. My bf of 3 yrs (26 and I am 25) was invited and he chose not to attend. He met my mom (briefly like once), but not my close relatives. Yest, I was bridesmaid for my friend's wedding and was planned months in advance he would come. But at very last min., he told me couldn't come. His reasons are he is uncomfortable, and they are all strangers to him, so what's the point of attending functions. The only function he attends is my bday (probably with no-one else around). The strange part is that during our first year, he attended almost all the functions I invited him to. He has social anxiety b/c before a potluck one time, he took social anxiety pills. Now, he backs out of everything. My friends/fam never said anything bad of him b/c it's impossible since he hardly met any of them. I attend all of his fam/work events. He only attends his friends' bdays. How can I gradually get him to attend my friends and family functions?
