When inam invited, i will offer to help with the dishes. And i don’t expect to be invited to share a gift. It is their gift, if they want to share, fibe. If they dob’t, it is fine too

I always ask to my guests what are their preference on food or drink, and I immediately share everything they brought. I prefer to give than receive when I invite someone in my house.

One thing I find disturbing is no place to put your things. I always make sure I provide hangers and space to hang.

Clean hand towels, clean restroom and a fresh smelling house is always a plus!

I would rather wait to wash my dishes, clean upper the kitchen, after my guests went home. But if it's my family, it would be extremely helpful for them to take their plates to the kitchen. Thanks.

These items seem very Millennial why would anyone not offer to help with the clean up the person who has invited you has done all the prep work on their own and now you say people would feel bad if they are asked to lend a hand.

If someone brought wine to my house I'd certainly share it - I'm a beer man, and quite fussy about them, there again I will drink most spirits, I have bottles of wine over 10 years old waiting for a visitor who like it! But none of these situations would affect me, I don't cook and have too much stuff in my house to invite any guests in.

👍🏼Yes, exactly what I do. I prepared my foods for hours and not asking what they wanted to eat!! Eat it or leave it!! What’s on the table are foods. I never forced anyone to eat if they don’t want to eat and that’s also goes to my family. People eat if they're starving regardless what it is as long as it’s eatable and not against their health. My wash up dishes, I did it myself alone when my visitors left.😅

As a diabetic who also has heart disease and does not drink alcohol, I appreciate when my host has provided something I am able to eat and drink. I don't mind if they have not, because sometimes they don't know. But please, when I turn down alcholic beverage, please don't offer some other alcoholic beverage; I still don't drink. And I am fine with just water. And I might add, if someone tells you they have a specific food allergy, do NOT say, "well, there isn't enough _____ in here to hurt you!"

Or they bring over their homemade wine that they think is great but you know it never tastes right? I can’t drink homemade wines, sorry.

What about if they bring a bottle of white wine and they haven’t chilled it and you’ve got a nice white that’s already chilled? Do you serve the warm stuff?
