how to invite yourself over to a guys house
It says a lot about Monica (and me) that this is the way she expresses both her care for her friends and her need to be seen as caring and we could all do a deep dive on the psychology of that if we wanted, but I dont think thats the point. If she cries at you? I poured out my heart. I mean, math can still be hard, but its sooo much easier than solving math problems WITHOUT doing math, haha. It imposes too much on the person who lives there. If the LW texted and asked if she could come by, thats definitely still inviting herself over. Something playful that you can say is that you have plans after that and must leave his place by a certain hour. Ask him if he has any dessert requests, but don't ask him to buy half the ingredients for the dinner. Obviously it has practical caveats, but not answering would train people not to just drop in. Or theyd end up interrupting the host through the usually flurry of getting-all-their-shit-done-before-they-inevitably-have-to-go-to-work etc phase. Ive had a not awesome day so maybe Im just being a kvetch, but I do not think all in-advance-of-company-cleaning has to be shame cleaning. I seem to have gotten better at finding people who actually value me, but I try my hardest not to impose Theres nothing quite like the realization that through a misunderstanding, youve encroached on a group that doesnt really want or like you. It'd be too much trouble to formally ask everyone each time. And, in nMoms reality, faaaaaaaaaaaamily can walk into your bedroom and shout at you or shake your mattress until you wake up, because she is a total asshole with no consideration for other people. I kind of describe myself as an introverted extrovert. I love her dearly and wish I could see her more, but every time she does this I get hives and feel panicky and cornered and like my inability to see her on Day X is somehow a Thing That Is My Fault and I Suck As A Friend. Agreed. But my shame level is much much higher and so I never have people over without a sometimes-tearful marathon clean that leaves me too exhausted to enjoy it. One guy showed up with his brother, cooked one meal, and then they sat on their butts and didnt lift a finger for five goddamn days while partner and I did all of the cooking, cleaning and tidying. What does this mean for transportation etc.. Or kids may not be up to remembering that they cant schedule for X day/time because actually theyre supposed to be doing something else that was scheduled ages ago; yay timetable clashes! doing that, or reacting in other appropriate ways, without letting on that you noticed the feeling (VERY IMPORTANT). H (*) You know, nude dancing in the most Brazilian way has some interesting implications . You were a little kid. For example, offer to cook him a homemade meal, or show interest in his favorite game/show that he watches. Things you should offer to do: Help prep or cook meals; set the table and do the dishes; offer to drive; occupy the kids while their parents take a well-deserved nap; fix a little something around the house if you have the skills; or take the dog for a walk. I used to do that because Ive had several friends (or friends) who had a tendency to cancel at the last minute. Please do not copy, reproduce, or translate any articles without permission. Moreover, I dont quite understand what I said wrong (I wish I could remember the exact words I used). Since I became bedbound Ive had to have my parents here, in my house. Hi, sorry, Im right here, lets go now; love you parents All the adults in the household work full time, they have kids, they have pets, they have physical disabilities couple any one of those with feelings of shame over a cluttered or messy living space, and youre there. Do they seem like friendly types who are happy with more people around, or are they more choosy about who they want to associate with? yeah, unfortunately sometimes when you hurt someones feelings it doesnt help that it was an accident. Friend: Is that poop in your sink and on the wall? For me, it is always better to err on the side of asking first. I was coming to say the same thing. Thats just me though and I appreciate its different for everyone. Sometimes she was angry, and Id apologize. To me this seems rather mean-girlesque. The closer you are the more you can get away with, but some people wont like it regardless. Put that out of your mind until your dd leaves home. The distinction I was trying to awkwardly makie was that a drop-in visit deprives those people who enjoy the lead up to hosting of that lead up (whether it comes in the form of fancy soap, baking, the chance to make DIY napkin holders, etc.). Its like having a conversation vs reading my mind. If you are super-handy and you want to help, you could throw that out there, I love an allen wrench. I mind people looking at my mess! Place yourself between her and her handbag and see if she leans over you to grab her stuff. Who DOES this? But thanks. Thats not happening in my world unless the huggee is my SO or dearest friend. The vast majority of pies are not baked to shame the nonbakers. Inviting a girl to your place is no other than getting her on a date, but because the date will be at your place it has more implications to her than going for a coffee. Im certainly going to be packed and ready to go, but it tends to be easier for both parties if they just call me when theyre there, or even when theyre getting close so I can get to the curb and wait without having to then find out that theyre stuck in traffic and are going to be 15 minute late. Examples: Oh, Im in the neighborhood, Ill just come by your house. No. It didnt affect our friendship negatively at all, just clarified a boundary. It can feel highly embarassing that you cant maintain higher standards. The etiquette of invitations varies widely as to region, culture, relationship & history, personality, not to mention cellular phone ownership and use, and its a particular minefield for people who have anxiety around and/or trouble reading nonverbal or unwritten social cues. What if it rains, or snows, or if its swelteringly hot outside? just got off the train, be there in 5 min Then they wont be surprised when I buzz them or ring the doorbell a few min later. If a bunch of friends are seeing some kind of movie or concert, where it doesn't really matter how many people come along or not, and the attitude is often "the more the merrier", it's probably okay to ask if you can join. Whenever I want to hang out with ANYONE I know I always drop a text beforehand and make sure my wording sends the message that its totally optional on their part to agree to hang or not. And I have best friends where they get a are you guys home text before I show up most times, just in case theyre asleep or away. Home vs. work,surprise! vs. planned, andyou inviting yourself vs. her inviting you,speak to escalating levels of intimacy. I am generally the organiser of things in my social life and I normally follow the ask twice guideline that the Captain mentions with the occasional rinse and repeat in a month or two if I hear nothing and still want to see that person. The soft invite is way too easy to brush off, especially with the level of over-scheduling that exists at certain socio-economic levels. But this too shall pass, and I will continue to sock away money into my GTFO Fund as fast as my problem child POS vehicle allows. But I did start noodling around on Twitter more recently, and all of a sudden I started getting more invites from my friends who use Twitter as much as I do. Tell her, politely and kindly as you would for anyone else, that she wasnt actually invited to the event. I suppose if someone REALLY didnt want to go away I could also let the dogs outside, but that seems more antisocial than is necessary. As- old-fashioned as this may seem, homemade meals can be hearty, tasty, comforting and easy to prepare. And I thought she didnt because she didnt answer my texts. Housework is one of the first things to fall by the wayside both for my anxiety and my partners depression. Actually, I think you really nailed it with !Plus it can feel for me like, whoa, are you going to do this a lot? Were in a cultural phase where Are we still on for tonight? is an actual question people text you 15 minutes before youre supposed to meet them. The reason is that I didnt invite you. We dont have enough information to know whether this was appropriate in the context of the relationship. Bye everyone. Nothing wrong with hanging out for a while after to see if the person is free after, but when it starts stretching into 45 minutes of that persons professional obligations you need to take a hint. That sounds super fun, but I already have a morning thing that day and think I might be pretty pooped. I never knew how long the visit would be. Lets say you were completely wrong when you showed off your new bicycle, and lets say your friend told you so. We werent students for whom casual unstructured socializing is often more the norm. WE DONT KNOW. Funny on TV (for certain values of funny), but not so much in real life. The fact that you dont find it rude, and would love for people to do it, is valid. There are so many places and cultures out there, maybe its still normal for some people? Britney: Were going out. Even if the person talking about the fun thing is a close friend, I clarify whether Im wanted there, and I try to do so in a way that doesnt sound like Im angling for an invitation. Instead of telling you in a calm voice that he wasnt ready to hang out yet, or asking you to duck out for another half-hour, or have a respectful conversation about how he felt upset about you coming early, he blew his top and attacked you. - JAD Aug 1, 2017 at 14:12 3 "Do take pictures" could be an alternative - JollyJoker Aug 1, 2017 at 14:44 9 Exactly that last sentence. Yeah, thatd be fun!. They may have to entertain an unwanted guest when they'd rather be doing something else. Do not do this, I will not answer the door. Intimacy and connection with other people means putting yourself out there, taking risks, and sometimes making mistakes. In-laws decided to visit. (I particularly dislike it when someone asks are you free this weekend without specifying why they are asking!) I feel like this is one of those things that might stretch further than just Northern Californiapeople on this coast are flakes, and theres a pretty big tolerance for flakiness in a lot of social circles, and as a result some of these customs cropped up as a response to the general flakiness. And this has been proven time and time again. As long as you can do the activity at your house, you're good to go! Visit with the parent while the kids bash about. My friend is also spacey as hell.). Has their baby barfed on me/Do we spend a lot of time in each others houses? And I agree that its up to both sides, the person doing the rejecting to communicate clearly and consistently, and the rejectee gracefully taking the hint. Yeah, mine, too. Oh I love nude dancing! If I overheard that Id think that A is surely going to Bs house later that day. I have yet to learn to hide my confusion. Thats theyre decision as an adult. Itturned out ok, but I sort of wish I had subsequently invited one or two other people, because it was kinda weird to travel with this guy (he wasnt even a CLOSE friend, I have NO CLUE what he was thinking). I think it was Phyllis Diller who said that she used to, when people arrived to visit and it looked as if a tornado had hit the living room, say in a plaintive voice, Who could have done this to us? And if that doesn't work, then simply tell him the truth. Anyway, like the Captain was saying, not all strategies work all the time, but consistent application of methods can get you places. If we set up a specific time, place, and activity, then I am definitely going and so are you, unless one of us says otherwise! This is not the first time Ive had it rough with best friends or high-intensity, close-knit groups. Yes to all this. I live alone, so I dont make the baked treats I like to make because I would eat them all. Maybe they forgot to tell you, or assumed the invitation was obvious, even if it was unspoken, or they just missed adding your name to a mass message that was sent out. Possibly its an age thing or a location thing. So I think it has a context where its useful. Tbh from what I see on YouTube, it's kind of normal to ask if you can come over to hang out. I got reamed at (yelled at, sarcasm, etc) by my ex because I showed up early one night for a hangout. You may get his favorite game and invite yourself over so that he can show you how to play. I think one of the key pieces there, too, is that there was a clearly-defined room for doing the visiting in, which was otherwise generally not lived in. If people arent showing up at your door because theyre worried its rude, you just have to let your friends know its okay: I love visitors, so feel free to drop by if youre ever in the area. AT the very least, we are going to go VERY low contact. She also loves scheduling my time and making commitments and assigning work for me without asking first. The guy had the kind of job that involved getting up before dawn and he was already in bed he wasnt super impressed, and thats when I started really thinking about whether it was OK to just drop in on people not everyone has the same schedule as me. In my experience, No Soliciting signs are ineffective. You BETTER be there because Im already on my way AND I washed my hair for you. This was a bigger issue for my girlfriend at the time, but after a certain time hospitality would dictate that we offer food or drink, which extends the visit and expends house resources. Hoping to see your face among the crowd. If this is true, what are some ways you think we might have more fun? PS Side note to LW: you arent doing this. I asked her something along the lines of oh gods, what have you been thinking of me these last months, with all the details and no invite? Everyone has different preferences about this, so it can be tricky to figure out what to do in general. Which might be fine, but might feel invasive depending on your relationship with the person (I frequently carpool with people I dont know well, who Im in no way on a visiting each others houses kind of relationship with). Its just that my family builds onion layers of forbidden feelings, and it was impossible to guess which ones you were supposed to notice & do something about and which ones didnt exist. I too have been in a fairly fighty friendship that was often, like you say: wow I have no idea why we are in this situation. A random person? You could say Im going to go to X Comic Book Store that day, want to join me? Youre not inviting yourself along on their day, youre inviting them along on yours. I have tried to set boundaries with my mother because I do not like uninvited surprise guests. They did call first, but left a message because no one was home and came anyway. We should totally go and see that together! I also know that not everyone enjoys the kind of cleaning/hosting prep I described and its obviously not required (that would be insane). Youve tried every trick in the book but it still has not worked. Or even the clock on the hosts wall being a couple minutes slower than the one in the guests car. Also works for anything else youve been asked to schedule in advance. I know, but like I said up thread, Ive had a couple of friends in the past who would in fact regularly cancel that close to whatever-it-was, so I got in the habit for a while because I couldnt trust that plans were real. (or text) I may not be able to, either due to existing plans, or lack of remaining energy for interacting with humans. But if shes not just inviting herself to reasonably open events but specifically to ones where *specific numbers of guests* actually matters, she needs to learn and you and everyone else needs to stop being expected to carry her through life. Gah. the trick is that i can never tell when its going to be one way or the other. Nobody dropped by after about 8pm without prior arrangement because the children were in bed there were rules. For example if Bob Alice Camille Davy et al all know that Bob and Gerry are going on their honeymoon starting on Friday, I will feel fine talking about the picnic on Saturday. But at this point (now that Im more confident with myself, which was the hardest thing) I dont feel obligated to invite All Members Of The Group but I also dont feel like I have to shepherd anyones feelings. My mother always really, REALLY hated unexpected guests and visitors, and if someone showed up unexpectedly she would be icily polite until they left and then bitch about them for hours afterwards and for the following couple of days. I'd say one isn't better than the others. Hoshit, I missed the cleaning remark the first time. "Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone." (Proverbs 25: 15) I have close friends who are cool with people texting them and saying hey Im around are you at home to guests and then coming over if the answer is yes. This was actually THE reason we didnt end up dating. Even if I were OK with hugs, I wouldnt want to be repeatedly visited at work to hug if nothing else, that would likely be viewed as incredibly unprofessional and quite likely disruptive to collegues. In re: not knowing stuff is happening, I think that, a lot of the time, is a function of how plugged in you are to a persons day-to-day happenings, whether in the meatworld or on Facebook or what-have-you. It didnt occur to me before you said it, but it could totally be a function of the fact that Im not so plugged in with most of my friends lives when Im not hanging out with them face to face. Guys don't usually invite girl (friends) to hang out alone just to "hang out". Ive struggled with that, too. Likewise if hes invited somewhere and its an invite for both of us or hes been specifically told that partners are welcome; if not then Ill happily wave him off and have an evening in on my own with a good book and a bottle of wine and have some me time. 3.

Just realized Im in your neck of the woods, mind if I swing by for a quick howdy on my way home?. What does the Bible say about a grandparent's role, and how can grandparents be a blessing to homeschoo I was reading that and thinking, wait, whys that shame-cleaning? Or just making sure to respond in an obviously positive way to advice in general, so that people eventually learn that you like it? why didnt you tell me?? There is also a lot of sabotage going on, and this major disruption of my environment as we completely redo the wiring and gut the basement and first floor and install HVAC, so everything that was spread out on three big floors is now crammed into three tiny rooms (why she has decided to do all this major construction and demolition NOWwhen I am trying to make a good impression on a potential employer and show up early and well-rested and eageris a mystery best not examined too closely, but she may be thinking about selling the house or MOVING IN WITH MESCREAAAAAAM) and it is, all in all, not fun. And to the subject of unexpected visits. not to say you should construct an elaborate web of lies, just dont go on and on about it. If shes been increasingly distant, maybe theres something else going on. I have a very good friend who does this. Here's when we do it. Fun times. I just recently reconnected with a friends who I lost touch with because of our different expectations. I can usually drop by before moving on to my next event. Visits are preceded by five days of anxiety, and followed by days of needing to be loved, and held, and told that I am a good person, and that my parents are shitlords. Those seem to be reserved for romantic relationships only (some scripts being more constructive than others). in the 3 weeks since I broke it off I have been trying to solve the problem of why someone would treat another person this way. I am so glad asking this question because its one Ive also had, although in my case Im on the other side of the fence Im friends with the mom, and her daughter likes my kids, but they cant stand her. YEARS! 1.5. Hope to catch up soon. And then let her be the next one to reach out. 3. That. Yep. Not offering reassurances about identity and place of living. One of our more memorable conversations was when she was really annoyed with where I was parking my bike; most of the issue was that she felt like I was in the guest-space where she couldnt just say, Hey, move your bike. And I was parking my bike in the obvious spot and assuming if it was an issue theyd say something. He would not be able to remember to do it, would not choose a socially appropriate time and place to do it if he did remember, and would not issue an invitation that T would be able to understand, let alone accept. Uurghhrggghh you bet that any child of mine will be raised with a HUGE feelings-related vocabulary (I pretty much only knew happy, angry, sad until my teens?) Expecting brutal honesty from others merely because one isnt socially adept is expecting too much. Wait for me to open the door and join you. Just ask them what they are doing the night of the event then say "oh cool" or something like that then keep talking about it until they invite you. . Then suddenly it became not okay for ME to do that. Bye have fun! I cant wait until we have the house finished so I can start locking the door again. And if you are sleeping or sick or busy when they pop in without calling first, too fucking bad. This happens here every. that may just be me, i guess. (I have no qualms about putting the dogs outside if I spot proselytizers or door-to-door salespeople coming down the street, but I wont put the dogs out if someone is already inside the yard.). Pack lightly. (stupid). Ha, I grew up in a similar neighborhood culture- but in kind of a hippie community where there were few fences and a lot of windows. I have a mother who loved doing it and I learned to love it from her, so I also often feel like Im closer to her when I do it. Im used to being the awkward girl the group puts up with due to circumstance(classes, volunteer groups, tour groups, etc), the one asked to take the photos because no one actively wants her in them. understanding the ENTIRE backstory to the feeling And the last thing is that at some point, you will not like one your childs friends. If I am up for company, I will invite you to come in, sit down. Hi all, long time lurker, first time commenter I have seen this from both sides of the dropping by conundrum. Attempts to join group events have gone horribly wrong (like going to lunch when someone asked, who wants to go to lunch? and realizing once I was there that the invitation was actually only for men, which I am not), which just reinforces my need for an explicit invitation. Methods of inviting people out You can invite people out face to face, over the phone, by texting, by email/app message, or through a chat window. I once had a friend invite himself along on a trip to Europe. Step 1: Cleaning Your Place You are inviting a woman you're interested in into your personal space, and this is a make-or-break proposition for a relationship. Im inattentive-type ADD. It also covers how to avoid awkward silence, attract amazing friends, and why you don't need an "interesting life" to make interesting conversation. She almost immediately told me something along the lines of, "Great, when should we meet up at your house to play?" Im yet another person who doesnt go to things unless explicitly invited. Answer door, but open it only a crack. Newly married. I am good at putting on the Social Face when I have to, but Ill be damned if I will summon it just because someone decided to drop in for the heck of it. We both could have used it. ? And its always after the fact so by the time theyre talking about the next outing theyve forgotten all about how I used my words before, and Im just as uncomfortable inviting myself along as always. I do it just because sometimes things do come up at the last minute, its easy (for me at least) to bungle scheduling when social plans are made far in advance. The only difference I can tell between this and the bike incident is that it was about a bike and it would be me dropping by her home rather than office. LW this stuff is very subjective. That will give him the idea that you are busy and likable to people, and he will have more interest in you. Eventually the pursued individual just grows weary of all the unwanted attention, and starts responding sharply (if they respond at all) when the other person wont gracefully take the hint and back off. I am still wondering if I have no manners, if my expectations are all screwed up, etc, but a counselor will hopefully help with that. I wouldnt have shown up unannounced (or just email announced) if we hadnt already had plans. Your presence will glorify this party. Never, under any circumstances, ever, show up to someones house EARLY. Also don't give a room a complete makeover without gaining permission to do so first. * That very easily could be in the category of very close family. You: I really enjoyed meeting you, Id love to get together sometime soon., You: So happy to hear it. I think its easier for both sides to send a text. It seemed like most people of my parents generation that I knew had a living room for visits, and a den for family.). Its insanely awkward. Not ask, just show up with boyfriend Maybe he honestly was en route to shower with rubber duckie and towel, but, well. Later you could even tell her that you assumed when you hadnt seen her that she wasnt coming by. Depends on age and social skills; if travel is involved, the kid(s) in question may be too young to go on public transport/cross the main road etc. At what point is it OK to ask T over for another playdate? 2. I was not all that good at social interactions as a kid, and didnt give or get invitations all that often at that age. The issue of social anxiety has been brought up already, but maybe they have, say, a job that saps all their social energy and they want to spend their day off resting and browsing tumblr? Id advise you to take dropping by her house uninvited completely off the table. Your examples include this, but it wasnt talked about explicitly. I like the idea of just asking directly, but Id be uncomfortable using the phrase Im socially awkward, even in a joking and self-deprecating way, unless I really knew and trusted the people. Its definitely been the type of thing where they expect four people to join them for their birthday dinner and BAM, Clueless Cousin is there already. I know that probably seems like a small/petty distinction, but in terms of the LWs question I just want to emphasize how much more fun ALL aspects of hosting are for me when I know about them in advance. Theyre terribly nice like that they understand that it makes me uncomfortable, and so they dont put me in that position anymore. This is a very interesting topic. DO: Replenish what you use. I recognize that this is more my problem than theirs, but I like my budget! Usually the host says yes and then everyone else gets texted and comes early, and then were hanging out for 9 hours instead of 6 and its kind of awful. First, apologize for coming over uninvited at an inconvenient time. I think its a good time to keep the recounting of the event to yourself. Im in the area. Is asking. When our tabletop gaming group was new to one another, I had a few bachelors who would show up at my place early. Why do people wear shoes in the house? So it works better. Or if theyre not ok with it, Ill bring a book (well I bring one anyway) and sit in my car and read until its suppose to start (because suppose to and actual are different times and that seriously bothers me). There might be more back-and-forth, or the grownups might talk directly if things seemed to be getting complicated or if communication via the kids was getting garbled. come on. Ill text you early next week and we can set something up., Them: I never get to see you. No problem Anna Sthetic, your comment was important too, I just wanted to put across another perspective. Im someone with a developmental disorder, and commenting on other people doing bizarre and/or not-okay things with stuff that says theyre just like a three-year-old or mentally twelve or whatever is really, really gross. Admit it, neither one of you wants the date to end. Im the same way. This approach leaves me feeling frustrated because maybe I dont want to do that thing, or perhaps want to rest or need to do errands or whatever else, but feeling trapped because I already admitted I am available. Why wouldnt we invite you! Please take your high horse out back and shoot it. Whether inviting yourself tosomeones house is just fine ornot okay in general, you have information that dropping by this particular friends house is not okay.

I wouldn't say it's rude but it's possible that people feel uncomfortable then. You could then and could now. A soft no is still a no.
