[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think that you're being presumptuous by assuming you weren't invited because you haven't reciprocated after being invited to their holiday party for 2 years. Are people really that petty and bean counting? Hosting a party is a lot different than planning a dinner party or even a barbecue. If you're hosting a party, you're already putting forth the time, effort and money whether you invite 20 people or 22 people.

If my neighbors stopped inviting me to their holiday party that they know I know about, they're making a conscious effort to make a statement that they don't really want the relationship. That's fine, but [b]it would be petty of them to do that due to not being invited to a barbecue at our house or something similar. And that says more about them than it does about me.[/b] [/quote]

What? This whole thread is getting to be about reciprocating, and the people on here who host are telling you why it's important, and you think people who work hard as hosts that start to drop non-reciprocaters, it says something about "them"? No, it actually says something about you.[/quote]
