Christmas party mainly adults

[Lostinspace42]

Help. I’m an introvert whose social life revolved around small children for the last few years. I’ve been invited to a mainly adult mince pies and mulled wine party - a first for some time - any advice?

Yes, swerve the mulled wine if possible, and get a nice drink. 😉

Ask people what they are planning to watch on tv or if they are going to a Xmas theatre outing.
Alternatively, I usually ask people what they are reading.
You could ask whether they are staying home, have they got a lot of people coming or are they going to family.
you will be fine.
Enjoy

If you really don't want to go just decline the invitation. DH is an introvert and unsociable so he just declines most invitations to this kind of thing because he knows he won't enjoy it.

Thanks for the advice. I have just come back as it was not a late do. Christmas films and which ones are people’s favourite turned out to be a great topic. A handy tip I will remember for next time. I put my foot in it once but that’s not too bad for me.

I'm glad you enjoyed yourself
