M: Thanks for the suggestion. I will attempt to make it easier for guests to respond. However, this does not directly answer why invitees do not respond and whether they consider no response as inconsiderate. One person who responded directly to me expressed similar frustration with black girlfriends’ failure to respond. She spent a great deal of time and money on a particular affair, and only a handful showed up. Folks hadn’t bothered to phone or express regret afterward for not attending. Then when she had subsequent affairs and these same guests were not invited, they became offended. It’s OK not to respond or attend, but you expect to be invited to future parties?
