[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here-  just to clarify- it wasn't "mass mailing" or 100 cards. It was like 40 and I said it was basically just closest circle of family and friends from xmas list. Clearly no one sends gifts from xmas card, so I don't think sending mail suggests a gift.
   As stated, I don't Facebook, Twitter or Instagram-- so no one sent me notes that way. 
   I absolutely expected acknowledgement from a handful of those folks- like three of my bridesmaids and close friends, my husbands best friend and his brother and sister. I think that would have been thoughtful and appropriate. A text or call or nothing from more distant friends was fine. Although I send a gift for any announcement... Baby, high school graduation.. Even take housewarming gifts when friends invite us to their new home. Guess I think it's polite and I like doing it.
   And it's not about getting attention- or needing something. It's just what I think would have been the right gesture I guess. I'm not losing sleep, but making observation.[/quote]

That does seem weird. Why do you think none of them responded?

Is it possible that they reached out to your husband on Facebook and you just didn't see it?[/quote]
