Don't you hate it when you talk about an event you're holding or sometimes you don't even mention it at all and people automatically invite themselves to it? Or how about people who come over your house without even asking and staying for dinner? whistling.gif Eh, I hate it when it happens because technically you can't uninvite someone who invited themselves. I was so desperate that I actually was looking at a wikihow article on "How to deal with people who invite themselves." I guess its just one of my pet peeves.

Who else hates this?

just don't be an asshole. if someone does this a lot, it's one thing, but otherwise in some cases it may have been an honest mistake.

Actually yeah, this bugs me, but to a certain extent. Luckily most of my friends don't do this sort of thing, but when it does happen, it pisses me off. I just kinda go with it though, because I don't like to start things with people. =/

Doesn't bug me too much unless it becomes a regular thing, then you just gotta tell them to f**k off sometimes.

it's annoying sometimes when people invite themselves.
sometimes my friend would call and be like, "what are you doing?"
and i'll be like me and matt [my bf] are at starbucks just reading.
and then he'll go...k i'll be there soon like i invited him.
he texted and called previously but i ignored it.
so i picked up this time. i should just not answer at all.

another time, my friend just showed up at my boyfriends house on christmas day after dinner where his whole family plus my family was there. didn't call, or text. just showed up. that was pretty rude.

I can't stand this. My sister seems to attract people like this because got most of her friends always help themselves over to our house or to dinner with us and everything, its very annoying.

I don't really know what to say about to fix it or anything shrug.gif I just deal with it and go back to my room, or I'm a sarcastic bitch to them until they leave. >_>

^ Older or younger sister?

This used to happen all the time at school, because our class was so small that whenever a party was thrown, it was pretty much POSSIBLE to invite everyone, so people just assumed that it was an open house, and routinely had to be told otherwise. Irksome.

I don't tolerate that. HELL NO. My ex best friend invited herself AND her boyfriend and they got kicked out. You HAVE to call me first. Hell f**king no. My boyfriend's place is always full because it doesn't bother him. Even when we're f**king, the doorbell rings. We had a fight about that once. >< AAAAAGGGHH! I HATE HATE HATE it.

Inviting yourself jokingly, I do that. But actually COMING, hell no.

IDK.
I tend to attract the fat friends who wanna come over for dinner, or the girls who have like serious ADHD and annoy the f**k outta my mom with their laughing and screaming.
Then the bitch had the audacity to look at me like it was my fault!

Word, I had this stalker girl who kept inviting herself upon me, talking about how I look like Chris Brown and ish, and she wanted to get with me. Kept asking me for my number. I threw out everything I could imagine even the fact that I'm too old for her, buy yet she kept insisting. Thank god its summer and she don't know where I live.

I love it, actually. Makes me look popular, but I don't actually have to be social or friendly!

Haha, this topic just shows me exactly how sad I am sometimes. The other day I was sitting in a group of people that I get along really well with. It was after band camp and we were all tired from working, and they were making plans to go out to eat. They sat there for at least five minutes deciding on where they wanted to go while I just sat there in the group. Eventually everyone left - nobody asked me if I wanted to go. So I got in my car and went home. xD So there, I said it. I was kind of upset. It's like, surely they wouldn't have minded if I'd gone with them, otherwise they wouldn't have been planning it with me around, right? But still because of stuff like this, I was too afraid to jump in and invite myself, even if it was something like "hey if you guys need somebody to drive to Hot Springs, I can take some people". Sometimes I wonder if I'm too paranoid, other times I wonder if maybe people just don't like me. ._.

i don't do this to other people because i find it to be rude to not only listen in on other people's plans but also to just include myself in them without being told to do so. a couple of people have done it to me... didn't really care mainly because some i forgot to invite & others made the even t fun. the only time it bothered me was when this certain someone was eavesdropping in on a conversation between some friends & i and then decided to invite herself. how pathetic and irritating.

& to libertie: sometimes i forget to invite people standing right next to me and then when i remember i feel bad. i don't think the group you were with meant to not invite you. things just slip our imperfect minds, don't take it personal, it happens to everyone. flowers.gif

Haha, there's nothing like being around a group of people nonstop for a week straight to make you feel like maybe you're becoming a bit annoying. I would hope I understand the difference between being someone who's just straight up obnoxious and someone who just gets overlooked a lot; but sometimes I just hope I'm not totally oblivious to people not liking me and that's why it happens so much. Not living on campus kind of separates me off from everyone else and it sucks sometimes.

That is EXACTLY what I would feel like/do.

I hate being left out, but I also hate taking the initiative and asking if I can tag along or to assume I've been included in other people's plans. I think I'm just really self-conscious/have low self-confidence.

I've never had people other than family randomly show up uninvited (other than surprise birthday visits :]) but I can see how it'd be annoying.

If it's a really good friend, then they know that they can stop by my house whenever. And, usually, my mom DEMANDS that they stay for dinner, so they know that they can stay and eat if they want.

My house always has people at it... so it's kinda the normal thing here to stop in.
