I want to say yes but all his friends will be there and his sister ( who i think does not like me ) will be there too with her friends.

he asked you to go so go, and not all people hate clingy gf's/bf's. all that matters is that you two are happy with each other, it doesn't matter what his sister thinks of you.

This is your chance to show that you will be a great girlfriend. Not only that, you can suss out his friends and his sister. His friends and his relationship with his sis will say a lot about who he is as a guy.Many people are shy in social situations, and in my experience the trick is just to fake confidence. Nobody will know you are shy, so just go with a positive outlook, and when the social event happens, if your guy has manners he will introduce you to people when they say hello to him. At this point just ask them how they know him, or something like that. There is an art to small talk. Just look enthusiastic and interested in what people are saying, smile lots. People LOVE to talk about themselves.If you can appear friendly and sociable, his friends and sister will love you. You really have nothing to worry about, see it as a little challenge to improve your own confidence and the next time it happens you will be even better at it.
