[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I should have clarified, this is a Meetup group, so the website automatically does the whole RSVP and wait list thing. I forget that other moms' groups are not through Meetup. The dynamic is a little strange, for sure, but I like having opportunities for my kids to socialize with other kids and to meet other moms in my area. I am not from here and have no local friends. I'm just starting to meet some other moms in my neighborhood/town, mostly through the group but not exclusively.

I guess my question could be made more general: is it rude to commit to attend something and then change your mind at the last minute for a non-emergency reason? I think it is, but what I'm seeing is telling me that this is just how a lot of people operate these days. Just wondering if anyone else thinks it is important to honor commitments even for events that aren't expensive or "special." [/quote]

The problem is Meet Up. The general feel about Meet Up is that RSVPs are not binding in the way that personal invitations (e.g., through email or the phone) are.[/quote]
