To not want to invite people I don't like to my house

we have always had a pre christmas party (except last year when DS was only a week old). This year I have invited some of our NCT group who I see regularily. I have not invited a couple I havn't seen since a 6 month reunion was held and whom I don't really like.

One of the others has asked if I invited this family as they had bumped into them and they'd talked about a christmas / 1 year get together on the same day. Our party isn't an nct get together it's for all our varied friends. Am I being an unreasonable bitch to not invite these people?

not at all. Its a christmas do for friends. These people are not friends.

Not at all, your house, your party, your choice - you wouldn't catch me inviting people I don't like into my home - might give them the wrong impressionGrin

YANBU. It's not a NCT get together.

I've you've invited every other couple from the NCT group but not them then I'd say YABU, unless they've done something really horrible or mean to you.

As long as the other guests aren't just NCT ones, then it's a friends party, totally fine.

YANBU - this is a party you are inviting some friends to. The fact that some of them know each other through NCT is irrelevant, that's not why you are inviting them.

YANBU, unless you then moan if they do an NCT thing on the same day and the others choose to go to that.

YANBU they are not your friends, so you don't have to invite them.

I have a rule (after i had special parties ruined) : I can tolerate people i don't like much at a Restaurant or else but not in my house. Only nice people are welcome in, not nasty/rude/jelous.

The exception to the rule is BIL and SIL.

You cannot choose your family but you can choose your friends.
