First, nobody but you will care if you show up alone. A work party is just a place to socialize, away from the work environment. WHATEVER you do, don't get drunk or in any other way become out of control in an effort to reduce your anxiety. That's a bad idea that can cause serious problems at work later.

BUT...

If you seriously don't like the idea of showing up alone, take a date. If others will be taking a spouse, you should be allowed to take a date. If you aren't dating anyone right now, just call a friend and explain the situation. "I need someone to go with me so I won't feel so awkward."

It doesn't even need to be called a real date.

Do same-sex married couples have the same rights as you do?

Yes, mainly because I am married to a person of the same sex. In places where same-sex marriage has been legalized, same-sex married couples have identical rights (except for federal issues in the US) as any other married couple. In places where access to marriage is limited to opposite-sex couples only, then same-sex couples may be able to obtain the same rights by civil union, civil partnership or domestic partnership. Otherwise, they do not have the same rights.

Is there any possibility that a same-sex person will be married?

Although there are no reliable statistics available, it is likely that same-sex couples are less likely to be married than their heterosexual counterparts. There certainly do exist, however, hundreds of thousands of persons married to someone of the same sex in the United States. I assume this is what you mean when you say "a same-sex person."


Do gay people have to be married to adopt?

No. In the United States, sexual orientation is generally irrelevant for single-parent adoptions. There are some states where same-sex married couples can jointly adopt. There are states where unmarried couples cannot jointly adopt and same-sex married couples are legally considered unmarried. There are some states where single gay parents can adopt, but same-sex married couples cannot. There are also many states where the adoption may be legal, but there are no legal protections against discrimination by the adoption agency against gays and lesbians. In general, however, if you are a single gay person and wish do adopt a child, you may do so. Joint adoption and "step-parent" adoption are more tricky.
