Ever feel that your efforts have not been reciprocated. I have driven five times to a friend's house in Scotland
yet in return, our host, despite our invitations, has never visited or shown any interest in visiting our home. So I say f.... this for a game of soldiers and the relationship sadly peters out.
We invite someone laughably called a 'therapist' for lunch. The invitation is not returned which cause a swell of resentment. We won't be visiting her for professional advice.
A writer manque visits, she makes no reference to one's own efforts - to the extent one wonders is she conscious of others.
Two graduates from one of our most select Universities visits for the weekend. They they eat like horses, but gracefully
and with excellent table manners.
We receive a lazy email for our hospitality.
Is this a bleat that despairs of human kind? Yes it is.
PS Do we invite people back for lunch (even if we don't get on with them) Yes, we do.
Do we return visits? Yes
Do we send cards or flowers. when given hospitality? Yes.
Do we acknowledge other people's aspirations and achievements?Yes.
Are we hard done by Saints?..well compared to others.....Yes.
