Re: Blast from the Past
Look the answer is rather obvious. She irritates you, you don't like how she acts and frankly don't want to be around her. You aren't her friend. Not anymore and haven't been for some time. The past is just that the past.
So the answer is as follows:
- First invite to go out - you have a previous engagement can't break it.
- Second invite - say yes and then call later saying you were forced to stay at work for some reason.
- Third invite - say you had a long day and are tired.
Don't break contact yourself. Just state you are busy or can't make it. Let her know subtly that your life does not involve her as much as it did before and you are your own person. Its time you should some back bone.
