[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just be vague and make it sound like you will while not committing.

[b]People get really upset when you flat out say no. [/b]

Just let it play out. [/quote]

OP here. I agree with this and wonder if I should have been more vague with my sister. But she literally told me that she expects us to visit right away so I thought at the time that it would be better to get ahead of things by saying that we probably would not. I may have played that wrong and should have been more vague. And yes, while I admit I can be very rigid in my thought processes, my sister is the type that if you do not state your position right away, she decides in her mind how something should be and will not later bend from it. Has been like that since we were young.[/quote]

Yes, you played that wrong. It is to reply to her question "when are you coming" with "Never!". You just say that you have plans to go to X and Y first, but it is definitely on the list, and you will see when you can fit it in.

In any case, there is no country that I would refuse to visit once, especially if a close friend/sibling was there.[/quote]

The country is Israel[/quote]
