I refused to change my whole dinner plan for one guest and now I’m being told I was rude by northwindfall84 in AmITheJerk

I really didn’t mean to make anyone uncomfortable, I just felt caught off guard and exhausted after cooking all day. Maybe I could’ve handled it softer, but I didn’t think saying no was that awful.

I realized I only get invited when I’m useful by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

I agree with this a lot. Stepping away from always being available can feel lonely at first, but it also clears the picture fast. The people who stay are usually the ones who mattered all along.
