Don't be disturbed by that. Mingling is good but it should be limited. I like being private but I still got some real ones that would pull up for me if I wanna organize something. Although, I don't even like parties, so there's no need for their gathering.

I can go months without contacting people. Even my social media accounts are as silent as a grave yard. I'm sure many people don't even know my whereabouts except people in my neighborhood here and I ain't got no friends among them. Crazy!

A Church member invited the masses to his mother's burial ceremony last week Sunday, today when I got there I had to look for his own canopy..to my surprise they were just few persons sitting on his canopy with lots of chairs vacant.

and I came late o, we talking about after 2.48pm

His siblings canopies were filled to the brim, even his uncle's canopies were filled up that they were even coming to collect chairs from his own canopies to theirs for their respective guest. (this guy is the second to senior) I could see the embarrassment on this man face... he was just quiet and moody.

Food he cooked was surplus, nobody to give after sharing for we the church members that came..he had to even give us extra takeaway home because we didn't pass 10...still they are still enough leftovers.

While I was coming home one of the member from the church a very good friend of mine gave me a lift, then he told me Alex...you see why you need to dey mingle with people all around so that when you want to do things people will come.

You can't just put your full mind for people in church or family members...they disappoint you.

As you go people own, na so people go like come your own.

it really touched me, because I might even be worst than this guy, I hardly go out in the day....I don't have friends.. nobody to invite me to party... people in my street don't even know my name..This is really bad I need to change.

So introverts how do you handle stuffs when it comes to parties like this that you can't bypass? With all eyes watching...
Who crowd epp? If it's your nature not to mingle with people, you won't be expecting a crowd so you will prepare for just a few number of people you must have invited. But cooking for alot when you invited just a few doesn't make sense to me, he probably knew alot of pple whom he invited but didn't show up, hence the wastage of food

The guy caused the mess for himself. Why cook up food when you know you are not the social type

During my wedding, my parents asked me how many of my friends from work were coming I said NONE.....I don't attend party so I wasn't expecting anyone at mine even though I invited them. My son's naming same thing happened, only my church members were present and my hubby self nah another introvert that doesn't like party.

The whole idea of separating canopies is senseless and invalidates whatever sort of love you all claim to share. All I see is fake love, insecurities, show-off, Etc. By the way, why do you need the crowd for grandma's burial? Are you going to bury some of them along with Grandma?

Rather than play along , make things go your way. There are 1001 ways to bury the dead.

Stop deceiving yourself , you will be left all alone to yourself and your church members will disappoint you. Your church members are not your friends , family or relations. Please mingle even with old friends , call them once in a while and talk to them briefly.

Stop behaving as if you fell from heaven, everyone has a someone related to him other than church members.

The guy must have been like my former boss that came from a very well to do family but because he claims to be a pastor, he was begging for food from his siblings on his father's burial to give to we staffs of his own company. What a shame , I mean a national disgrace.

The idea of creating separate canopies for the siblings will never make sense to me. What for? To create rivalry, jealousy or depression? I've never attended a function where I've seen such.

It's not really about mingling like social butterfly. You need to join groups and be committed to them.

That's the best way to socialize.

Even my family and close friends have known that I hate unnecessary noise, gatherings or attention.
We plenty like this...I don't move out except na business..Then I select occasions i go attend...And if turn up, just know say you are special..

Reminds me of a friend that fixed her wedding January first week back in Undergraduate days..She invited I and my guys..but had a doubt if we go come because of me.. grin

They were about entering the reception when I and my guys showed up..And na me dey front...She couldn't believe...The way she run with her gown come where we dey was epic..Na that kind surprise i dey like...Unpredictable.

Na sure babe, wey dey cook home meals give guys for lodge...we really spent for her big day because she worth am..And she reciprocated..

It was the best outing I had those days.

I no dey come out like that...But I know the day i go do any occasion, na wahala...My family go use their popularity come add salt sef.

I am not a crowd person...I live in my own world..And it is fun..I have too much friends but a very tiny circle...So I can Identify who chook me needle.. grin grin

5 solid and super friends is enough for me...

My man, you solid!!!! cool

I was to attend a relative function but I didn't go, and my dad was just furious that I wasn't gonna show up when he called me on phone. I wasn't bothered, anyways.

The major reason people attend parties is because they want others to attend theirs also. Such rule ain't in my book.

You can join your school groups,
Rotaract, Aisec, your community groups, your estate group, groups at church, football groups, there are so many just look around you'll find groups with people you share common interest with.

These are the people that will travel miles to your functions and even look out for you.

I know how many times we've contributed money, paid hospital bills for some of my old friends in secondary school and university from these groups.

There's a lot of benefit from socialising.
