Dear Abby: I'm just trying to have a nice holiday dinner, but people's feelings get hurt
"You are fortunate to have so many friends. As hosts, you and your husband have the privilege of inviting anyone you wish to your holiday dinners. For someone to assume that, because they have been invited one year, they are entitled to celebrate with you in perpetuity is presumptuous. If anyone indicates their feelings are hurt at not being invited annually, feel free to explain (as you have to me) that you are glad they enjoy your hospitality,"
"My wife is the love of my life. She is, and always has been, my dream girl. We used to have sex three or four times a week, but since her hysterectomy, she no longer desires sex. She's OK with scheduling sex on a certain date, but most of the time she doesn't follow through because she doesn't think about it, and I feel unwanted and undesired. Other than this issue, she is the woman for me. She makes me happy."
One hostess enjoys hosting dinners for twelve but has more friends than her table allows and rotating invitations each year causes hurt feelings among those left out. The hostess and her husband may invite anyone they choose and are not obligated to repeat invitations annually; offering a candid explanation that they must include other friends can address hurt feelings. The host couple may also choose alternative holiday plans such as traveling. A husband says his wife lost sexual desire after a hysterectomy, often fails to follow through on scheduled sex, and his unmet needs leave him feeling unwanted despite a supportive, loving relationship.
