[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Being older and wiser and was one of those who did not reciprocate it was 2 things:
1.  Fear of judgement
2. Absolutely no time to do the things necessary to be the perfect hostess, my cooking did not always turn out, never had the right amount of serving pieces, would have had to take two days off to get ready, etc.  We did not stock food or liquor, and it was a budget buster for us.

This was stupid looking back, but you wanted to know.[/quote]

If you can't afford to host people, you should not accept their invitations to host you.[/quote]

As a blanket statement, that's pretty silly. Some people are fine not having their invitations reciprocated at all. Some people are fine having their invitations reciprocated in other ways. Some people don't want you to come unless you will reciprocate their invitation exactly. I guess you're one of those people.[/quote]

I should have said, if you can't afford to host or reciprocate in some way. I do not believe over years and years that anyone is fine with never receiving any type of reciprocation.[/quote]
