People pleaser/can't say no

Re: People pleaser/can't say no

Another thing I want to ask is, how do you say no without saying rude or mean? Like sometimes even my sister calls me and asks me soemthing like hey if you have free time, would you mind doing so and so for me? And I want to say no soooo badlyyy because I just might have no interest in that, or no free time at all, but I dont want her to think im being disrespectful... Or like im out of the house, and my dad calls and says hey if its not out of your way, can you go to so and so's house and pick up my (whatever it may be) for me.. and I'll just lie and tell him its not out of my way and then proceed to drive half hour to a destination where I wasnt even going to, just to do his favor for him.
