Miss Manners: Everybody deserted our hosts early at their New Year’s Eve party. How could we have handled it differently?I attended a New Year’s Eve party with about four other couples. At 10:30, people started leaving, and I quickly came to realize my husband and I would be the last remaining guests.
Was it right to leave and not be the last remaining guests, or would it have been better to stay until the new year was toasted?How awful for the hosts to be deserted during the key part of the occasion. Miss Manners does not accept your reasoning that, after preparing for guests, they would prefer to be left alone. Please apologize to them.On New Year’s Eve, we took my elderly mother and a friend to a fairly upscale Italian restaurant. My mother and the friend each ordered a glass of red wine.
When he brought the split, he brought three glasses and divided the Champagne into three partial servings. So my mom and the friend were each served both the red wine they’d ordered AND a glass of what I’d ordered for myself.I let it go, as it wasn’t that big a deal and I really couldn’t think of a good way to say, “Hey, wait -- that’s MY Champagne.” They enjoyed the red wine, but neither touched the Champagne.
