What's the secret?

Post Reply New Topic

I was wondering if any of you knew what the secret was to successfully inviting someone to a get-together. I find that NT's seem have such success inviting people to their gatherings. When I do it, however, I often get lots of turn downs unless they are a close friend. I am not the only person with AS who's faced this. Yet, I would like to know what the trick would be.

I wish I had a more specific idea, but I'd imagine it to have something to do with psychology. Word choices etc.

I did a short google search and they have a page about learning how to get losers to have win-win parties and more people attend.

I am a hermit, so I am usually a party of one. I don't like having people over, and don't really like going out much. I do occasionally visit nearby relatives, or go out to eat with them, but that's about it. Being a hermit, I don't have friends, so there is no one to go out with anyway.

As for your situation, just invite them, and either they will say yes, or no. If you want them over at your place, you could have a theme party, or have some sort of special meal prepared, that you should mention in your invite. If this is to be an outside event, pick something you think they will like, and again, mention that in the invite. It could be as simple as a favorite restaurant, or new movie, or something more involved, like attending a concert by a group they like, or a sporting event they like, etc., and don't forget to mention that in the invite.

Hope this helps.
