Me too. I start panicking when people are late. Late to me is anytime past the designated time.
You should both know that arriving early to a dinner party - or any event at someone's house - is ruder than arriving 5 minutes late.

Agree - just sit in your car or drive around the block

I'd try not to, if you can help it. But it's not rude.

Is it ok to arrive 10 minutes early to a dinner party or is it considered gauche/rude?
