Person A asks if person B wants to go out for dinner (this is as friends!) in front of you but they dont ask you, is this rude?

Answer 1

Yes, it's rude.

To be the third person would feel bad and good manners are all about ensuring that people feel as comfortable as possible

Answer 2

It is rude. Maybe I am old fashioned, but I make a point not to talk about things in front of people who are not invited. It is common courtesy.

Answer 3

yes it is rude--it is very easy today to text someone and ask them to dinner--without upsetting someone in the process. a lot of young people today have no consideration of others--possibly due to the facebook effect--where everyone is excluding others on a daily basis--without a second thought, all in the quest to be the "most popular one around".

Answer 4

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Nothing wrong with "Jimmy doesn't play banjo so lets' not bore him with banjo talk. Let's discuss this over lunch tomorrow."

Answer 5

Yes, it is.

Answer 6

Not really.

Answer 9

Yes it's rude. Such a question should be in a private conversation one on one.
