[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everybody.  I talked to him about it last night.  He said he was glad I worked through my angst.  I shared that my XH, who was a Southerner of a certain class (I am a Yankee) expected me to know all his social rules and the woman's responsibilities for gifts, etc., immediately, and would scream at me if I got the wrong thing or wore the wrong thing.  (Wish that were the only abusive thing about him, but no - that's why he's X).  So I spent a lot of years learning those rules, as well as the rules of my professional circle, which tend to skew more high society.  That is not my background growing up.  I told him I realized that (a) he wasn't asking me to take on the responsibility for figuring out what to bring, that they were his friends and he would know what to do, and (b) that I knew he wouldn't yell at me for being wrong.  He was very sweet about the whole thing.  Now I am starting to get excited about this.  Plus he's away this week on business, so I am looking forward to his coming back anyway!

Thanks again, everybody![/quote]
