I think women especially find it hard to say no, because we want people to like us and we're afraid to say no. I've even given this advice but I failed to follow it myself this time. There isn't much she or anyone can say, if I say "no" and that's what I'll do next time. I really don't care what she thinks at this point because I'm bothered. Her daughter should have told her last night, my daughter said "we're not available". I still can't believe she called my husband at work.

Hi Lynn,
I struggle with this too, but every day is a new day to have the chance to say how you feel. For me, e-mails work best.
