[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about this as a decline? "I'm pretty busy with the obligations I have and don't really have extra time." [/quote]

I'm OP.
I think this way of declining is acceptable. I wouldn't be upset if someone wrote or said this to me. I'd probably be a bit disappointed but I'd understand.[/quote]

But a lot of people WOULD be upset and she doesn't know which one you are so no response is the response you get. I don't any of this (why would I confront someone about not responding to an invite?!) but I make friends pretty easily so someone not responding would just not matter to me.

I have a long-time friend, though, who struggles to make friends and connections and I know at least part of it is she comes across as needy and clingy and desperate and just requiring too much energy. It is offputting. Our friendship happened organically because we worked together and had to do projects and stuff and ended up having a lot in common, but she has a very specific hobby and hasn't managed to make good friends among that set despite trying really hard to do so and I know it is because of how she comes across. I have talked to her about this and she hasn't "heard" me so I did what I could do. Perhaps you might reflect on how you come across to people. [/quote]
