Last Night's Social

We went to a social last night. We haven't been to this particular social in a while, and they've moved locations since we were last there. The new location is better in some ways, not in others. Where it's better is that it is much smaller than the old one making it very easy to actually socialize rather than everyone being so spread out that even with 100 people there it felt empty and no one really talked to anyone unless they made a concerted effort to make a lap around the club (huge dance floor in the middle of the club). The new location is completely lacking in dance floor, however (which is the primary downfall).

 

Anyway, when we pulled in we recognized the car we were parking next to and thought "oh, it looks like B&T are here". Ok, this is the same couple we posted about in this thread. We haven't seen them in months, probably since we posted that thread. Of course, within about 10 minutes they came up to us and said hello. She looked great and they were both really friendly. We ended up hanging out with them and one other couple most of the night (mostly because we were the majority of the under 40 crowd). We did move around a lot and talk to other people but it ended up being the 6 of us that kept coming back together.

 

In the end, when we left we were both saying/thinking the same thing.... "if it wasn't for that ONE thing, we'd love to play with them" and we do really enjoy hanging out with them. The one thing being that we are scared if we ever played with them we'd end up being another one of their stories that they were telling others. I know we'll continue to run into them and we really don't mind hanging out with them. If they ever ask why we haven't played I'll have to be honest, and I don't know, maybe I should just tell them that anyway. We'd love to play with you but we just really don't want to end up being a story you tell someone else.

Julie, If you do confront this situation with this couple. I hope you share how you pull this off. This is one tough situation. I think for us, we just make it so strong in our conversations. That we don't talk about who we do, or don't play with, with others. We just hope for the best and so far we think it works. Either that, or at least no one tells us, what anyone says ;).

I would hold your thoughts until it was time to express them.

 

At that time, your words will have more impact and meaning.

 

Speaking them pre-maturely will just get you a brush off and ignorance.
