[quote=Anonymous]I was raised that it's rude not to offer your guests food and drink, but no one ever pushed the issue if the guest said no. I have social anxiety, which partly manifests in having trouble eating or drinking in front of people I don't know. For me this often becomes an issue at work functions. I'm usually more comfortable in someone's home but if the gathering involves people I don't know well I would likely say no or only accept a glass of water. If the food/drink was readily accessible (i.e., a cheese plate on the coffee table or whatever) I might help myself as I grow more comfortable with my surroundings.[/quote]
