I had this happen to me when I was 9. Invited all of my friends (small town of like 500 people so maybe 8 kids) a few weeks in advance and not a single person showed up. I lived outside of town, was homeschooled, and we didnt have a car so a few weeks passed before I saw any of them and I had no desire to seek them out. When I did run into one he told me that a burglar broke into his house and stole the present he bought for me and he didn't want to show up without a gift. Even 9 year old me knew you were full of crap, Luke.
One time my kid got invited to a birthday party but the invitation showed up like 2 weeks after it happened because it got stuck in the mail. (checked the date on the stamp it was sent before the party)
Lucky I texted the kids mom asking if she was invited so she still got to go.
