[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The problem with hating to have people over is that you miss out on a lot of fun invitations. My husband's best friend at work has been to our house about three times with his wife. He admitted to my husband that his wife won't entertain because she feels her house is too small. So guess what? We don't invite them to our house anymore, haven't for years. We see them at other people's homes and occasions out in public, but what a shame for them that they're not willing to entertain.[/quote]

It's your DH's best friend at work and you are this PETTY counting the visits?       What a shame.[/quote]

I'm not understanding your criticism...we've entertained them formally three times and numerous times for more informal visits. In 20+ years of friendship, they've never had us over. Not once. Am I to continue extending hospitality to them indefinitely? Sorry, I have other people I like just as well that I'd rather invest that time and effort on.[/quote]

It's funny. DH and I have a family we LOVE that never have anyone to their home.  But- they have huge hearts and are generous in every other way.  We invite them over a lot and I've never stopped to think I should cut them off.

If you don't really like them then I get it--but for really good friends there is zero tally on my part.[/quote]
