FF: You’re More Than Welcome…

Posted by Mrs Zeee on 08/21/2009

Have you ever been invited to go somewhere in this manner: “You’re more than welcome to come if you’d like….”

What the heck does “more than welcome” anyway?

I think that is the most callous way to invite someone to a party, dinner, event or even on a walk..
It’s lazy and it doesn’t exactly express that the person really wants you to join them. It’s more like saying, “I feel bad that I haven’t invited you and I don’t really care if you are there or not, but if you really want to come along, then sure, you’re welcome to…”

And the worst part? I find myself doing the very same thing to others. So I guess, in many ways I am frustrated with myself as well.

Not to self – gotta work on that. Maybe I will make it part of my Make Monday Matter resolution when it applies.

Happy Friday!!

I’ve been both on the receiving and giving end of this situation. I understand what you mean. I feel the same way.
