yes JW you can. You can tell the host that so and so an event I'd like to RSVP to and she can say ok pay the donation and come or she can so no sorry. You might be thinking of something diffrent though, or a diffrent semantic?

No, you can't. R.S.V.P. is an acronym for the French phrase 'répondez, s'il vous plaît' and it means 'please answer.' It's commonly placed at the end of an invitation as a request for the invited party to reply yes or no to the invitation so the host/hostess will know how many people to prepare for. You can't R.S.V.P. if you were never invited. Contacting the host/hostess of an event you were not invited to and asking if you can come is not an R.S.V.P. ~stef

You might be thinking of something diffrent though, or a diffrent semantic? Do you know what RSVP means? Unless you are invited to RSVP, you cannot do so. There are mixed feeling about asking to be invited to a private event, particularly in the BDSM world. Many would feel that to do so is to thrust yourself into a social situation where the host obviously doesn't think you belong. If this happened to me, I'd politely ask you who suggested you come and then strike that person off my invitation list since all our invitations clearly state that the party is private and not to be discussed with anyone. If there is a "donation," it's an entirely different thing. Businesses are not social matters. There are some excellent books out there. You might want to avail yourself of one or two. Among the ones I like the best are those written by Miss Manners (Judith Martin).

Agree with candystripper..though I was thinking adult attention deficit disorder,but it could be both aadd or an anxiety disorder..definite counseling may be needed..at first posting of this I was tempted to suggest some kind of medication ie:valium,xanex or the like but did not wish feline to think I was being flippant with her problem....be well feline, I hope you do find a way for you to overcome this..Tempting

Well then they are a business and social rules don't apply, but asking to come is not an RSVP.
