The last 4 months of a year is challenging for my budget. However, this year is pretty much scattered. Coming at unexpected months of June, September and December. Question is go or not to go. An issue of your relationship with the person. Old friends, college friends, colleagues, family friends and of course customers. Now this gets multiply by 2 if you have a girlfriend or wife.
I am talking about Chinese Wedding dinner.
Is it better if I limit my attendance? Perhaps only to those who may potentially re-attend your own auspicious event. What would you do? Somehow, most wedding I attended seems to have the fakeness in it except for a few exceptional ones.
During the day, the groom or bride may not even have a clue you have attended because they are confuse and struggling to put up a smiling face for like forever to them. Imagine in a time space of 2 to 3 hours with 500 to 600 guests.
What excuses would you use to not attend someone's wedding especially Chinese wedding dinners? Oh! yah in Malaysia, when an invitation card has been shove to you. No matter if you are present or absent, you are expected to give. Such practices has been seeped into the local society here. Easily noticeable when asked if you are free on a particular month and continue to state that they are going to hand you a 'summon'! Gosh! Talk about conscience.
I am very eager to get out of such situation but ain't easy because civilization thrives on networking humans. Probably retring or cutting all communications or probably migrate to become a monk are potential options. If this happens here and there can be no guarantee that it won't happen elsewhere. Brace yourself everyone.
