Visiting rules help people build and strengthen friendships and spend time in an easy and fun way. In addition, the ability to behave with dignity at a party is a guarantee of a benevolent attitude towards you from the owners of the house.
Instructions
Step 1
If you are invited to visit, be sure to give an exact answer whether you will come or not. If you accepted the invitation, but for some reason cannot come, notify about it. Be punctual. Do not keep yourself waiting at a laid table, but do not come too early, so as not to create awkward situations.
Step 2
It will not be superfluous to take a small gift with you. Brought sweets, a cake, a delicacy or a small souvenir are always appropriate. Men should present flowers to the hostess or bring a bottle of wine with them.
Step 3
Upon entering, greet the hosts, hand over gifts and be sure to say hello to everyone present. If you are not familiar, introduce yourself. Keep at ease, engage in conversation or entertainment. And brighten up possible embarrassing situations with witty jokes.
Step 4
Feeling stiff? Try to maintain at least a "dumb" dialogue with your eyes and utter a couple of phrases in the evening. From time to time, look up from your plate and do not look around the room with a bored look.
Step 5
Extroverts, on the other hand, should not pull the blanket over themselves, otherwise everyone present will wait for your departure like manna from heaven. Do not interrupt the interlocutors, and even more so the owners of the house. Gossiping and creating conflict situations at a party is bad form.
Step 6
Observe the traditions that are accepted in this house. Don't insist on watching a movie when invited to play charades, etc. If you made an awkwardness, let's say you broke something, be sure to compensate the damage. Be wary of alcohol, especially if you are visiting the owners of the house for the first time.
Step 7
Don't stay up late. At the end of the evening, thank the hosts for their hospitality and good time. If necessary, accept the offer to accompany you, but do not insist if it was not received. Don't forget to invite your hosts to pay you back.
