[quote=Anonymous][quote]That very well may be; however OP indicated this was the last time she invited anyone over (3-4 of them did show up. What about them? Were they rich too? Only the poor ones showed up? How does she explain away that?)
And to be upset about a casual "hey who wants to come over for coffee" that you are using it 4 years later to explain why you haven't socialized with anyone from school because they are all horrible rich people is bizarre and says a lot about Op's role in this.[/quote]

I don't understand why you keep assuming that OP treated the parents who did show up to her coffee badly or never became friends with them.  OP did say she made some friends at her son's school, just not members of that golden rich inner circle that is cozying up to her now:

[quote]Eventually I overcame my insecurities and through my son met a number of nice women, a few more down to earth ones who I naturally gravitated towards and became quite friendly with.[/quote]

The coffee attempt was her last try at making friends with this one standoffish circle of women, not anyone at all from the school.  And OP's decision to stop trying with this one circle was certainly not "bizarre."  She had already tried making small talk several times with them at school events and they walked away, then they flaked out of her coffee at the last minute without apology or attempted friendly overture.  You are totally making "Op's role in this" up in your head, because she tried and failed with these women and it sure doesn't seem like it was her fault.[/quote]
