Translations:Guest Etiquette: Being Invited Again/4/en

| Understanding=A useful starting point is the recognition that an invitation is conditional by nature. It applies to a particular occasion, a particular space, and often a particular set of unspoken assumptions. Guests sometimes read a first invitation as evidence of an established relationship, when the host may still be forming an impression. The gap between these two readings accounts for a large share of awkward second conversations.
