First Party - inviting new couples
We're having our first party this weekend. We've invited a number of couples we know (some we've played with others we've not). I was also thinking of inviting 1 or 2 couples that we are interested in, but have not met yet; or we've met briefly but have never really had a chance to sit down and talk; or we've made online contact but have not had time to meet face to face.
I'm on the fence deciding how to proceed. These are couples we feel we would like to play with, but there are also other couples coming that we know, and are thinking they want to play with us (as well as us with them) I guess my dilemma is inviting a couple to get to know us (and our guests as well), but know we probably won't have an opportunity to do more than talk. Of course there are no expectations for anyone to play (with anyone), but feel that we might be setting up expectations for playtime that we probably won't be able to do (only so many people one can do in a night). I also feel that since we are hosting we need to not disappear for the entire evening either.
Your thoughts are welcome!
