[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is the OP - I'm honestly not trying to mean girl anything! So you would just repeatedly say "I'm busy"?

I'm genuinely asking. I'm fine to learn that I'm the crazy one here, and I don't think I've ever actually been in a position to say this to someone, so it's not like I'm going around doing this. But I'm staging a hypothetical, and am quickly learning that what I would prefer to hear is very different from what other people would prefer to hear!

I'd honestly prefer someone to say something like "oh, it's so sweet of you to think of me! I'm actually at a crazy busy time of life right now, and just do not have time any more social commitments. [b]See you at Larla's soccer game!" [/b]or whatever, compared to "oh, I'm busy that day" so I would know not to ask again. [/quote]

If you said that to me I would get the picture and not bother you again.   Probably would wave hello at " Larla's soccer game" but never again approach you.  Maybe that is your goal?   It sounds like you wouldn't be a good friend anyway so it would be a win win.[/quote]
