    Maybe they socialize more by cellphone. Honest, I wonder with the heavy use of cell phone and Facebook...

    I think it's just that crowd --that's all.

    One time, my daughter and I went to a neighbors for her daughter's b-day because they're the same age. All was nice and fine for awhile. Later on the family just dissapeared into the master bedroom to have a conversation, completely oblivious that we were even there, no come on in or anything. We quietly left and never went to any more of their parties. Jenn

    That does sound rude, but rudeness isn't new. There are just new ways of manifesting lack of social skills.

    Was the hostess by chance new at entertaining? I cringe to think of the mistakes I probably made in my twenties and even thirties. Entertaining is a skill, like anything else, and takes practice.

    If the hostess is someone you like and want to help out, you can, as a guest, help with chatting up people who seem left out, that kind of thing.
