  1. After the meal, stand up and say, "it was really nice having you, we should have a sleepover next weekend"... she should get the hint, unless she's daft.


  2. You should simply tell her that you have something to do, so you can’t accept her.

    Is she your important friend?

    I don’t think so.

    Why do you need to feel a pain in your own house?


  3. Just show him the door! I no it sounds bad but sometimes you have to do what you have to do.

  4. Suggest eating out when you meet up. If she asks to still come back say that now is not a good time but may be sometime in the future.

    Be ruthless, she is by using you and your surroundings. Best of luck :-)

  5. emm say that you have an emargency and you have to go to another stat or something or welcome her into your homemaybe u'll have fun

  6. Just tell her that you're gonna have a busy week & you have to do something with a friend in an hour & suggest to take her to the train station.

    Or the truth... that you need your space & you don't feel like company all the time. if she's a reasonable friend she'll understand...

  7. u dont have to be unkind to her, just explain that u r a bit busy and youve got things to do, would she mind coming over to stay another time maybe when its a better time for you and then you wont feel like shes taking advantage. arrange a good staying time for the both of you but make sure its on your terms too.

  8. Wow!! First she's overstayed her welcome but I like the way Morgan put it "tell her after dinner that it was nice having her over" and then walk her to the door and tell her good night. You definitely don't have to be mean about it but also too people should not take your hospitality for granted either. If your being polite doesn't work you might just have to be direct about it.

  9. there are 8 ways

    i will recommend the nice or the bad way...

    pls answer my question

  10. Just let her know that something private has come up and 4 days is not convenient.  You don't have to tell her the details.

  11. How the h**l do you let something like that happen? No seriously, how? does she does waltz all over you or what?

  12. Be honest.

    Or, tell her you have some sort of family emergency and you have to go away for a few days so she'll have to go home. Pretend to leave then when she's buggered off go back home.

    Or, if her friendship doesn't mean too much anymore, be brutally honest and really offensive so she'll have to go. Try saying 'Look, you've been here ages now and you're really starting to p!ss me off. Are you ever going to f**k off home or what?'

    That'd work on me, anyway.

  13. firstly its nice of you to consider her feelings

    BUT THATS THE PROBLEM!!!! she must know that you consider her feelings and stays..

    She may have low self esteem issues..

    Dont forget that non verbal communication is massive, try and BREAK RAPPORT by not facing her when you want her to go....dont match her language or tone of voice, change you communication bodily and inch towards the door! eventually she will be trying to talk to you near the door and at the last minute say,

    Ok well il see you soon, but remeber BREAK RAPPORT by facing away from her...

    what ever she feels about it all im sorry to say isnt your responsibility!

    bu t what is...is your time and home...good luck!
