And really, how well would "I'd rather not," go over? Most of us try to be polite, so when I was asked to take off my shoes, I did. I also made a mental note to never go back there again, and we haven't. Neither have about 90 percent of the others he invited to the party, and everyone still talks about the time he made us take off his shoes and walk all over the cat litter.

I do not understand. [b]You are willing to sacrifice a friendship because you do not want to be blunt, and then turn around and talk about this person behind his/her back.
All of that is OK, but it is not OK to be blunt.[/b]

All this in the name of being polite.

Good point, but if this were a best friend, I would speak up. Since this is a casual friend, almost more of an acquaintance, I just sucked it up the one time. I also do not like confrontation. I believe this is different from being polite. Other people did say they prefered not to take their shoes off and he said it was a requirement! You're right that it's not cool to talk behind his back. But he does make himself an easy target, wouldn't you say?
