Neighbor wants me to go over!

Question

I have a neighbor who is related to me by marriage. She keeps telling me to go over to her house because she wants me to meet her neighbor and neice. I have already met them a little bit. They are both about 2 years older than me, I realy don't want to go. If I say no she will like force me to come. How can I say no politey.

Answer 1

You can just go and meet them, but it doesn't mean you have become best pals with them and hang out.   You could simply just go over for a bit, and properly get acquainted with one another since after all, you are neighbors.    I suggest maybe doing that, because that way if you ever need to rely on your neighbors, you'll have them there.

If you really don't want to meet them, then you can just say, No, not at this time, or that you're busy and that time is not good.
