Sounds like a business meeting unless there’s info you are leaving out.

Or. A very early booty call..

Op can you tell us exactly what was said in the invitation? This is way more interesting than a debate about whether 7pm is dinner time.

Dinner and sex are both implied. Come prepared.

Well … if it’s for drinks, or Uno or a seance wouldn’t the hosts have said that too? It’s super bizarre that the OP actually doesn’t know why they’re going to this persons house, and thinks it odd to ask for clarification.


Eating and playing games are not quite the same thing.


Are they really that different though?


Poor thing. Bless your heart.

Also, did the invitation specify some sort of activity? Like, come over to play pool, watch TV, for a party??

No context...


Wear nice lingerie and bring condoms. And lube, lots of lube.

No, they don’t need to ask. Hosts did not say it would be for dinner.

It’s not for dinner. Eat before going.

Your host hasn’t issued a very good invitation if you don’t know what you’re being invited for. My guests would know whether I’d be providing light refreshments or a full meal.

Your hosts should have made it clear what the invite is for.

I agree. No need to dance around the issue.

Some people eat dinner later and 7pm is pre-dinner cocktails.


And some people don’t.
