This is Lonely Planet's fault isn't it?
"Never offend the locals by refusing a dinner invitation".
"Locals may attack you in the street. Accept that this is part of their culture".

Despite my seemingly negative story, India IS a beautiful place, don't get me wrong, the slums of Mumbai were at points horrifying, but until you've seen a sandstorm roll over a blue city, or watched the sun suddenly sink into horizon burning red over a silver sea, or walked through a temple carved ENTIRELY from a HUGE block of marble... then don't judge.
I admit, my own naivety led me into most of those chaotic situations, but at the end of the day, i have a mean scar and great memories.
I'm definately going to go back... :)
