[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the OP. 
We have a single friend who comes over fairly often and I never expect a reciprocal invitation from him since he lives in a small apartment with a tiny kitchen. But whenever he comes, he brings over something thoughtful for me, and has even offered to babysit for us on multiple occasions. I love these gestures and he will be invited to my house for a long time to come.

It's the folks who don't reciprocate and have the means to do so that bother me. We have even experienced people coming over, eating, having a great time and never contacting us again. Not even to say thank you.

I am Indian, and in our culture we have a term for such people - KKK - an acronym that roughly translates to, "Ate, Drank, Outta here."

BTW, I never meant the part about KKK to mean that Americans do this and Indians don't. In stead I meant it as it happens in Indian culture as well and we even have a name for it! And for what it's worth we have had both Indians and Americans be extremely gracious dinner guests and both Indian and Americans never contact us again after having a nice dinner at our house.
