[quote=Anonymous]I would do it if it was for something where I needed to do a headcount or get tickets. I’m doing a movie party for my kid next week, and I’m getting a block of reserved tickets on Saturday. If I don’t hear from you by then, I’m not going to be able to fit the kid in, unless the kid wants to sit alone down in the front row. Other than that, I don’t care.

I was so clueless about the not showing up thing, though. When my kid was small, I invited a colleague from work with whom I was friendly and she had a kid the same age. She had been complaining about how long Saturdays were with a kid now that her spouse was deployed, etc. She said she would come, etc.So this was a small house party, and she’s not there when it starts. It’s an hour in, nothing. So I’m holding the cake thinking that her kid would be upset to miss it, so I call her thinking something bad had happened.  She just had blown it off and was hanging out at home. I had never heard of such a thing where you don’t call or text (with any face saving excuse) to say you’re not coming. Now, sadly, I’m used to it. People around here appear to have been raised in a barn.[/quote]
