Help with some excuses!?

Question

I have an ooold childhood friend who i have been keeping in touch with, she comes and see's me every now and then (she doesnt live in the same town as me anymore). Anyways she wants to spend the night here sometime this week with her 16 month old and me and my boyfriend arent really all that comfortable with it. I also have a 13 month old. I am trying to find a way to say no without sounding rude. I have already told her that i will talk to my boyfriend about it and get back to her tomorrow..what should i tell her tomorrow? i already said i wasnt doing anything this week so an appt. isn't even an option..help please, i feel really bad! i got butterflies in my stomatch for even asking this here.

I also posted in the friends section but its really slow there lol..

Answer 1

You could tell her that your baby is coming down with a cold. Make it seem as though its a big deal, e.g. Call her frantically and tell her that you quickly need to rush to the doctors or that lastnight you had to call the doctor.

Maybe she will be scared off by that as she wont want her child coming down with it.

I hope this helps.

let  us know how it went.

Answer 2

you could tell her you arent feeling well or you arent up to hosting it then and maybe you could get together another time and do something different. i hope it all works out!

Answer 3

Just tell her look I am sorry I didn't tell you earlier but Me and my boyfriend are going through a tough week and we really shouldn't have any one come over this week maybe next week or sometime after would be okay but this week is just really bad timming I am really sorry......

or

If family is close by....tell her OMG I totally forgot it was my (mom/sister/brother/dad) Birthday and I am suppose to go to visit and take them out Me and my b/f will be up there for a couple of days he just reminded me Hopefully we can do this next week or sometime after I am so sorry...I can't believe I forgot!

Good luck hope I helped

Answer 4

say that you and your boyfriend have been fighting and you dont want to put her in the middle of it..

Say Maybe another weekend. I dont want you to get in the middle of it and have a bad time at my home..

haha ive done it so many times

Answer 5

Say your baby has a faver and you don't want to get your child sick.

Or say that you or your bf has been puking or something and don't want to get her baby sick.

Or, be up front and honest with her and say you just don't feel comfortable hosting guests yet and maybe all of you can take a day excursion to some kind of age appropriate amusement park for your children or something

Answer 6

you could say your boyfriend isn't a fan of sleepovers ha. or you could say your 13month old suddenly has a fever and you don't think it's a good idea of having guest over. or since she lives out of down you could say your going out of town or that your husband had made plans that he hadn't told you about. but if you don't want her ever asking again maybe saying that your husband is a private person and although he enjoys the company of people he only enjoys it to an extent meaning not having friends stay over night. and don't feel bad because its your house and if you don't feel comfortable with it then so be it. i'm sure there are plenty of hotels she can stay at if she wants to visit town.
