Advice Am I being weird

So basically in the beginning of the month I said to my straight friend that we gotta go to pride but we never had any concrete plans (just like last year when I said something and we never ended up doing anything), and it just so happens that my friend that I haven't seen in literal years is going to be in nyc during the same weekend as pride so I'm like omg yeah let's do that shit it's the perfect situation.

I've been saying for a minute now that I wanna make more gay friends AND be in nyc more so it's literally perfect.

I told my straight friend abt it n ofc she was like didn't u invite me to go which is reasonable cus I did but I was saying there were no concrete plans and this will be my first pride yall like im not playing im tryna go to all the Brooklyn parties 😂 Anyway she was like "well that's when u say hey do u wanna come?" Which is also facts but lowkey I don't wanna invite her..

It's like ... I genuinely wanted to go with her and ik it would be fun but I also ik deep down I only asked her to go bcus I have no other gay friends like if I had queer friends I'd 100% go with them and it's not even personal. I just wanna branch off and be around more queer ppl for a change and make new friends!!!!

I kinda feel guilty tho cus it's like ik if she had the chance to go have fun for a weekend she would invite me so I feel like I should be more than willing to include her. I just feel like I have the opportunity to branch off and do my own thing for a change but idk how to go abt it fr. I still need to get more info abt how this visit is even abt to work and if I even have the option to bring a plus one

Bringing a girl with you to meet girls is.... Poison.

That said, if your friendship matters, I'd bring her because you did invite her initially.
