I feel terrible that we have never reciprocated by inviting her and her husband to come to our home for dinner.
By contrast, my friend and her husband live in one of the nicest and most desirable neighborhoods in this area and they have a beautiful home with hardwood floors, a dining room, remodeled bathrooms, etc. To be clear, I’m grateful to have a house at all, which is out of reach for so many people in this area.
The thought of these friends having dinner at my kitchen table makes me cringe with shame. I feel that it would be rude not to offer the same type of elegant dinner party experience that they provide us in their home. As that’s impossible, I am stuck.
