I would have felt like a goon if I'd turned up at a private/exclusive meeting, .
I think i might know exactly what you mean, ive often been unsure whether my attendance is expected or desired and whether ive been informally accepted as belonging to a group/click (sp?). So when theres been any doubt ive tended to miss out on things. Im not sure why exactly - obviously theres a strong component of 'not getting' the social invite/inclusion cues, but i suppose it might be linked in with self-esteem, avoidance, fear of rejection etc as well.
Anyway, anything posted here is an open invite for people like us, so consider yourself formally invited! We INSIST on your prescence
