Closing the loop

What would you do if someone sends you an email inviting you over for a meal, a movie or whatever and you cannot go?

Here's what I would do: thank him for the invitation and then regret my inability to make it.

Some people however choose silence! I really don't mean any offense to them but I cannot understand this. Why would they do that? Why not respond and end the suspense? If you don't do that, the host and all other guests are left wondering what to expect!

We must all really 'close the loop'! End the suspense. Respond.

You need to close the loop on a positive note or else it might hit the relations.

Had a similar experince when couple of frnds texted me at the last momemt that they could not make to my Daughters B'day. Really they are not needed for a Kids B'day. I understand!!!!
