[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This question is for people who ignore invitations to get together (not kids' birthday parties but adults asking other adults to come over for dinner, etc.).  Why do you ignore these invitations, whether by email or by phone?  When someone takes the time to invite you to get together to do something, why can't you at least make up an excuse that you're busy instead of completely ignoring it?

This happens to me all the time and it is so annoying.  I'm a mom who invites other moms/families to get together a lot.  This week I invited 2 different moms to get together, one was for a playdate at my house and the other was for a weekend brunch moms only.  Both invitations were ignored completely, and the sad thing was that I expected it, since I've experienced this so many times.  It's the rare person who actually responds to an invitation these days, and I find that very sad.[/quote]

I'm sorry. This is a pet peeve of mine. I believe it is because all those little courtesies have fallen by the wayside. A simple RSVP, a call to say you are busy - its so easy. I don't see why people won't/can't do it. Its like everyone is socially backward now.
