[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of people, especially parents, are just full up in terms of time, attention, and executive function to the point that planning social stuff is low on the list for getting through the day. We do prioritize it because we are transplants without local family, so we're more focused on building a local support network than people who already have one. And everyone always seems very glad to be invited to stuff even if they don't have the capacity to reciprocate, or even say yes to every invitation. I know this because they express gratitude that someone else is planning something! [/quote] This! I'm so busy and very grateful for someone who takes the time to plan. If I don't reciprocate in the same way or I take ages to do it; it's because I'm busy. If the other posters cannot handle that, please don't invite me to things.[/quote] Yes, I hear you. We all are busy here that's DC crowd.[/quote]
