Finally, even nice people can act rudely with a little too much alcohol. Could this have influenced her behavior at a dinner or party?

I don't agree with the sentiment that you're not ready to wear a kilt. I'd hope the responses you receive here help you in that endeavor, not discourage you.

Thanks very much. I appreciate it.

By the way, just to clear something up, I had no intention of wearing the kilt to her party. I was just mentioning that I was going to see her soon, and the topic of the kilt is still a sore subject with me. So, I am afraid of how I might react to any comments she will make. That was the only reason I mentioned the party.

Thanks everyone.
