Good excuse for not going out to the movies with my friends?

I was going to go to the movies with my friend, and I thought it was only going to be me and her. But she invited 3 ppl that I HATE. How can I tell the girl that invited me I can’t go?

1. be honest and tell her the real reason…

2. lie your butt off and say you don’t feel well, you’ve got homework (if your in school of course, other wise that might be weird..) you’re washing you hair, lol, you have a family commitment! I think anything would work as long as you sound convincing! :D

does she know you hate these people?
because if she does then she wouldn’t have invited them.
but if she doesn’t know you hate them then you should just tell her you don’t like them.

You: I’m afraid I’m going to have to take a rain-check tonight but I hope that you have a good time at the cinema with your friends and that we can go out together another time.

Her: What? Why? What’s wrong? Don’t you like me? Don’t you care? Does my butt look big in this? I never liked you anyway, you smell, I love you. Byeeeeeeee

You: Alrighty then. Phew!

either be honest, or blame it on your parents…

or say your sick/have cramps or whatever…

there’s tons of ways, but honesty is probably the best…maybe…

Where do you get off hating people? How well do you know them? Maybe if you went to the movies with them you would get to know another side of them, and they would not seem so bad. They must have some good qualities, if your friend likes them.

Hate is really a hurtful vice—and it hurts the person who is FEELING it, NOT the person at whom it is directed.

If I were you, I would try to rid myself of this very toxic emotion. You’ll be a MUCH happier person if you do.

Good luck, dear.
