[quote=Anonymous]OP, I get the annoying factor -- in our family, DH is in charge of all the social calendaring.  I am an introvert and if it was up to me, we'd stay at home all the time!

But your problem is that you are getting offended by others failing to remember specifics about how you arrange your calendaring.  It really is too much to ask.  People are busy and can't be expected to know/recall something that mundane.

I just forward to DH, or if an in-person DH, say "thanks!  that sounds fun.  I'll check with DH -- I don't really know our schedule as he does all that for us!"  Then I pass the info along.  No big deal.  I forward any "Evite Reminders" too which helps him not forget.

This isn't some grand statement about the Little Woman's Job is to Respond to Evites.

I have to think there must be something else about this friend group you find too Stepford Wives for you, because this is really a small detail to draw that conclusion.

FWIW, I get along with DH's friends well but don't have that much in common so I get being "oh well" about social engagements.  But I usually have fun when I do go.[/quote]
