Should I still go on this trip even though my friend canceled last minute?

:27: Tips & Advice

So, there's a trip happening soon and I was really excited about it. I've barely ever been on trips..just once before, so I was genuinely looking forward to this one. But now, my close friend who was supposed to come with me canceled last minute.

The thing is, the rest of the people going are already a group of close friends. I'm not super close with them, and now I'm scared I'll end up feeling like the odd one out. (Already an introvert), I asked a few friends for advice, and I got mixed responses, some said, "You won’t feel comfortable," while others were more like, "You’ll make new friends!"

Now I’m stuck. I want to go and have fun, but I’m also anxious about not fitting in. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Should I still go, or is it better to skip it? I only know one person from that group but i know I can't rely on them 24/7.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I wanted some opinions from people around here. Would appreciate your thoughts!
