[quote=Anonymous]#1, but in order to avoid arguments & defensiveness I'd make it more about your nerves than about the dog. If you come out with "I'm not coming over because your dog is dangerous", she will argue. If you frame it as "I can't come over there because I'm afraid of the dog, and I just won't be able to relax and enjoy myself", there's not much she can say. I mean, I'm sure she'll try, but your feelings are your feelings. I would also start with a 1:1 with one or two others to explain why you're so uncomfortable with the plan, and see if they'll back you up. Then I'd do a group response claiming discomfort around the dog and ask for an alternate meeting place. If others are OK with moving it back to a restaurant, great, if not you'll catch them next time. [/quote]
