To think it’s a bit cheeky for friends to suggest we go to a party after we host?

We are hosting a dinner party with friends for New Years. Will cook some nice food and have good wine. This has been planned and confirmed for a while. Have started buying ingredients.

I got a message from the friends coming over saying that they’ve been invited to a party at their friends house. They’d like to go and the invite has been extended to us too. So we could have dinner at mine and then go to the party.

DH thinks this is cheeky. Essentially saying they’d like our nice grub but then think there are better ways to welcome in the new year. What do you think?

My feelings might be hurt, but I can also see the fun in it. I haven't had a dinner party or been to a NYE party in years, so at the moment it seems like more is more. Do both and enjoy yourselves!

I’d be saying let’s go!! Anything for more parties and being around more people!
the fact they haven’t said oh sorry we’re now going to a party rather than attend your hoses shows they are considerate and are involving everyone!
for those saying it’s rude I can imagine you are a barrel of laughs at a party…

I think it sounds like a great evening!

I would. I’d buy and freeze. The food would keep. But I’m anally organised 😂
