Then answer T for True or F for False. We've all been in this situation before: a friend asks you to go somewhere with them, but you really don't want to. You're not busy—you are available—but you're just not that interested in the event. What do you say? In some situations, you agree to go. It's part of being a friend, after all, and sometimes you just do things for each other. But it's also definitely okay, and sometimes even necessary, to say "no" to your friends.Your friends need to know what your likes and dislikes are. If they're true friends, they won't ask you to do things you don't like. But maybe you and your friend are opposites; for example, you like loud parties and your friend likes visiting quiet museums. In this case, take turns doing things together. Sometimes your friend goes with you to parties, and other times you go with your friend to a park or museum of their choice.Also, you need to know yourself: what makes you happy, and what makes you feel stressed? If going to a certain type of event makes you feel stressed, don't go. When you're stressed, your friend will probably notice and not have a good time either. You'll both be annoyed and ready to go home early!Before the event happens, tell your friend how you feel. Say something like, "I'm sorry, but I really don't like watching soccer matches." Or, "I'm afraid I can't go to the water park this weekend.Something has come up." This second option isn't as truthful, but some friends will like that better than the cold, hard truth. This article is about how to say "no" to an event you don't want to go to. T F The writer believes he or she is describing a very common situation. T F In the second paragraph, take turns means to have one person make all the choices. T F In the last sentence, the cold, hard truth implies that sometimes, the truth can hurt people’s feelings. T F The author believes you should always say "yes" to your friends' invitations. T F Complete each sentence. Choose the correct form of the words in parentheses. 1.
