RSVP'ing...Etiquette
Ok I know everyone is different. But when it comes to rsvp'ing to a party I like to rsvp on time by the rsvp date.
ok here is the situation. we recently had my SIL's shower (my brother's wife) and when we were planning the shower I handled the rsvp part. One of my cousins never bother to rsvp, my mom and I ended up calling some people a few days before the shower. So now this same cousin is throwing a sweet 16 for her daughter and I have not rsvp'd on purpose and the other day when my brother rsvp'd they were asking him if I was going cuz I haven't rsvp'd and they need to know if I coming cuz they need a head count.
The reason I didn't rsvp on purpose is because she didn't have the same courtesy to do the same with us. I don't know maybe it's just me but that's rude...

I want them to know how it feels to have your own medicine thrown in your face...

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I agree that that was very rude. I would have done the exact same thing. In fact I plan to send the rsvp to DH's cousin's wedding very late... same thing they did to us.

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I think its very rude- and you have every righ to be pi$$ed off at their behavior, but I still don't want to be known as someone who RSVP's late- I would send it on time.
IMO, based on this circumstance just because someone is rude to you, doesn't mean that you need to be rude.
ETA: I might make a comment to them- that I wanted to make sure that they received it on time. It is SO RUDE when people don't RSVP.

I respond in the same fashion that I receive replies when I am a host.

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I too hate it when people don't RSVP. Having said that, I always respond early or on-time. I treat others the way I would like to be treated.

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I would have hand delivered the RSVP and then gloated at my prompt and courteous response!! That would have made them feel really stupid!!

I know two wrongs don't make a right but dammit i'm ****** at them. Sometimes it just makes me so mad how I always make to do the right thing by others and they don't have the same courtesy to do the same.

I agree.
ETA: Bedda- you have every right to be pi$$ed. I would be to. And you have every right to respond the way you want. Its very reasonable to want to give them a taste of their own medicine. Its just not how I would do it- that's all. We are all different people with different responses. This is not something that deserves that much attention for me. ITs easier for me just to send it when I think about it, then to send it late on purpose. There are other things however, where i definitely subscribe to "an eye for an eye"- this just isn't one of them. But that's just me...

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I dont think its rude at all! Im having a housewarming party over the weekend. Just got a phone call from a cousin...2 days later. Still waiting to hear from relatives. What gets me is, My one cousin gave my mom such a hard time when she was a day late rsvping for a party! Im not calling them. Not wasting my time.
You are not being rude @ all!

Re: RSVP'ing...Etiquette
I would be mad they didnt rsvp but I don't think it's right to not rsvp and would never choose not to just to make a point. But I would wait until the very last minute of the deadline date to do so
