Answer 1

If you friend is a good friend she will understand that you need to train and see your sister. I don't think she will be angry with you.

Answer 2

Don't go.  Tell her you have other commitments and she should understand.

Answer 3

if you really don't want to go with her then tell her you got grounded. but do realize that that chance might not come around again.

Answer 4

how the h**l brought you all things to do at the same day.

do what ever you want. Don't ask stupid questions here.

Answer 5

Just explain about your training and your sister visiting, she will understand she would be very selfish if she did not.enjoy your weekend and do not worry.

Answer 6

You are supposed to do what is best for you. A true friend would be understanding and someone who is not is not worth going out of your way to please. It is nice of you to respect your mother's friendship - but you should not be doing this at the expense of your own happiness.

Thank the friend for inviting you to her lake house. Tell her that you thought hard about it, but you have too many other things planned. Your sister is coming to visit - you really want to see her. And your dad wants to take you running at the big track and you really don't think you would be much fun if you were just sitting around thinking of how much you want to be seeing your sister and training.

If she is really a friend, and not just someone that you feel obligated to hang out with, you can suggest that y'all do something another weekend. Her feelings may be hurt for a little while, but she'll get over it.
