[quote=Anonymous]If OP is the person bringing dinner, let me offer a few thoughts. Is the recipient of a different culture? Cultures vary in their use of thank yous. In some cultures, the sort of automatic “thank you” so valued in general American culture is viewed as insincere and facile. It is hard for people from such cultures to produce such “thank yous”. Even if the person is from the dominant American culture, is she generally socially inept? Such people may have trouble coming up with “thank yous”. If OP is the recipient, it sounds like you aren’t really crazy about the friend coming over every week - in that case, tell her to stop.[/quote]
