Bluntly: Is a recital not open to the public? Couldn't she make her own choice without you asking her? You don't need to feel like you have to ask her to come; it sounds like you're taking responsibility for her feelings. If you are, then quit that. She's a big girl.
Can I tell you a quick story? Well, I'm going to anyway.
When I saw my counsellor I was in love with my therapist, and my counsellor, who as far as I know has no training at all to do therapy, actually kind of INVITED me to transfer my transference to HIM!!!
I know that sounds unbelievable but it's true. So I want to just say this: Everybody has an ego, everybody wants to be wanted and needed, and my own personal belief is that a person in the helping profession has a bigger portion of this need than most, so don't take that on.
Thanks for letting me blurt.
