I need 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.

Answer 1

Perhaps you could say your bf is a bit tired or unwell this week.  Which is closer to the truth?

Babies get poorly too.  

Mums get tired and hormonal.

Tell her she's welcome but ... at her own risk.

Maybe there's something she REALLY needs to talk about but can't get it out.  How much is this friendship worth?
