Parties..

[Cherished]

The party thing sucks. I've hardly been to any but I always feel like I 'have to' buy something to kind of support my friend kwim. The last one was a body shop one and my friend took ages getting the stuff to me so I was annoyed that I even purchased to help her out! Mind you a T/ware party would be great as I need stacks of the stuff! If anyone invites me to one that is! I also think it's bizzar that the same woman are going to the same parties??? Weird!

My friends don't seem to be party people. Great normally, but bad when I do decide to host one as then I rarely get any guests.

They are fun every so often, but like you I would be driven nuts if I had to got to them all the time.

This was me about 12 - 18 months ago ... I just couldn't afford to be going to everyones parties, they drove me nuts. Then some of them started doing evening ones around 7pm so it was great, I couldn't go because it was DD bedtime and I needed to home with her so I could BF her. Because its a 30min drive into town where most live even if I wanted to go AFTER DD was asleep it would still all be over

I don't mind the odd one here or there but i HATE tupperware, I just cannot stand the products they flog. I don't like the multiple makeup ones either.

I have never been to a learning Ladders one and as I now have a kiddie and another on the way, that is far more practical than makeup or plastic.

i flat out refuse to go to any of them so people have stopped inviting me. i just say 'i don't do 'insert brand here' parties'. if i want to buy something i just go to the shops and buy it, i don't need to be guilted into it by friends.
