[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]15:59 is correct. Refuse too many invitations, and anyone's going to think, "I don't think XYZ likes us all that much. Let's stop inviting XYZ." Propose alternatives that are lower cost. [/quote] Yeah, definitely don't make it about money. "Oh, that sounds awesome, but we can't! Thanks so much for thinking of us, though. Are you free to go do something next weekend?" And as far as your house-if you want to be proud of it, make it welcoming, really clean, etc., and it will be a nice place to be and visit. No one needs to know if you save all your money or if you don't have much money, so try to remember that your house doesn't necessarily reflect anything to anyone. (Except, I guess, really snotty people and I'm assuming you'd rather not hang out with them, anyway.)[/quote]
