12.19.2015 - (Not) Dates
I’m thankful for all of my friends and all the opportunities I have to spend time and have fun with them.
Holiday party season is always a great time to get a feel for your friends’ work buddies and environment. I’m grateful anytime I am invited to share that experience with them.
Even if I go just as a friend or as a platonic plus one, I want to always make sure that I’m a good date regardless of what happens throughout the night. It’s not only a courtesy, but a show of respect. I hope that’s something that all us young millennials today can understand. If you’re invited anywhere, as a sign of thanks you should be the best date that you can be. Be friendly and open, talk with their coworkers, and really accompany your friend - they invited you for the intention of having fun!
Of course I’m not saying you owe them anything physically, but at the very least, they deserve your attention for the night.
I’m very grateful for all the parties I’ve been invited to these past few weeks.
Thank you all so much!
Happy holidays :)
