[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. This is a good thread. I always thought "you're welcome to come" was a lukewarm invitation. I never realized people might mean "I want you to come but don't want you to feel pressured to say yes." Thanks, DCUM![/quote] Yes. It is not a lukewarm invitation. It is a we'd love to have you but no pressure to come. As in: We are heading out for coffee then to the dog park. You are welcome to join us (unspoken even though you don't have dogs, you are a lot of fun and you could hang out with us and gab, but we don't want to pressure you if you really hate dogs.) We are having a group over to watch the game. You are welcome to join us (unspoken but if you hate football or are wiped out from running after your two year old, feel free to bow out). [/quote]
