Asking Eric How do I host a private party without others finding out

4 days ago

Dear Eric Im in my mid60s and did not grow up using social media Honestly I find it silly to think anyone would care about my daily activities and dining options Thus I stay off all of the platforms Most of my friends are on the primary social media platforms such as Facebook and X In the past I have hosted exclusive inviteonly parties at my house Modesty aside some of these parties are rather nice with catered food and highend wines On numerous occasions a few days after the parties I hear from some of the people who were not invited Well I saw on Facebook that you had a party Why wasnt I invited As I am sure you can imagine I cant invite all my friends every time I have a party I dont have the space money or inclination to send an open invitation How can I respond to some of those who were excluded but inquisitive Private Party Dear Party You sound fabulous and Im envious of this fun life But I promise not to pester you about it on Facebook Its presumptuous of anyone to demand an explanation for not getting an invite Thats just an invitation to have bruised feelings Wouldnt be me Tell these social media sleuths that there wasnt enough room this time or you were cultivating a certain group that would all get along Modesty aside tell them Im too popular They can accept it or not But you dont have to explain yourself to them In the future however you might want to include a request to attendees Please dont post photos on Facebook lets enjoy this party in the moment Send questions to R Eric Thomas at ericaskingericcom or PO Box 22474 Philadelphia PA 19110 Follow him on Instagram and sign up for his weekly newsletter at rericthomascom
