Plus: What is expected in my culture seems to annoy my hostess.
I confided in a family member that I thought it was rather gauche for a couple in their 50s, who live together, to have a bachelor party at all, and that it seemed completely outrageous to plan an extravagantly expensive party and expect guests to pay for it.
I defer to Miss Manners’ expertise: Is this a reasonable and expected form for a bachelor party? Or is this host out of line?Whoever described the practice of sticking guests with large expenses as “commonplace” should probably avoid accusing others of being out of touch. There is no need to reprimand the would-be host — other, of course, than politely declining his invitation.I am a pretty small person and I cannot eat a lot. I usually eat about half of my food at restaurants, and that is entirely enough for me.
Miss Manners would not patronize such establishments, but, if you must, you need only say, “Thank you, I’m done.”I’m wondering if this could be a faux pas. Is it?
