[quote=Anonymous]I know you're in the minority, but those of you saying it's "not rude, just honest" do realize that this woman said "we're just not in the market for more new friends right now?" WTH, "in the market for?" "New friends?" Actually-- "more new friends?" After... years? It's not honest, it's bizarre. "It's not a good time for us," or "we're busy" or "maxed out" or something... those would at least be better. Of course, a simple, "I'm sorry, we can't" is fine too. But if she IS being "honest," then she actually sees OP as a "new friend" she doesn't have time to get to know or care about, which-- after a couple of years of at least casual friendship-- is a sign that OP should drop them. (Not completely, perhaps, because of the kids, but drop the idea of being friends with the adults.) [/quote]
