Sometimes you hear about people who are always invited to events but never host any themselves.

In all such situations the giver begins to feel a little aggrieved with the situation, but perhaps feels it inappropriate to raise the matter directly with the individual concerned. To assist all those in such circumstances, it might help if there was an unobtrusive but clear way of signifying dissatisfaction.\u00a0 Perhaps a code could be attached to the bottom of an address or invitation in the same vein as SWALK (sealed with a loving kiss).
