Is NO in your dictionary?

Thanks Yus for steering me back to the right track. I admit that my recent posts aren't probably the easiest to digest, probably due to the surroundings I'm living in. I just want to write one more ranting entry.

I really don't understand why I have such people around me... I'm normally pretty tolerant but too much is over the board. Is it hard to say NO? If yes, learn to say it because even a kid can say that. I sometimes prefer talking to my male friends because they are less wishy washy, more straight to the point.

Let me cite you some of the most ridiculous or very selfish examples:
"I can't hang out late tonight, because it's the hungry ghost festival right now." -- seriously will the ghost eat you up?

"Can we meet here because it's easy FOR ME to go home later?"
"Can we meet that day because everyone else is not free FOR ME that day?"
"I can't go out because my mum is asking me to do this... blah"

It is sometimes valid to say that, if someone else is not free for you, it is OK to arrange it with another person. But sometimes agreeing to someone and later coming up with stupid excuses is too much. Don't agree, if you don't have the intention to keep your words! Worse - if you always think you have a valid excuse and you're not in the wrong.

Would you die just admitting?
"Hey, that's a bit far for me!"
"I am lazy to go."
"I'm not in the socializing mood to hang out."
"I am busy."

Very simple, no?

If you know I'm talking about you, take note that honesty works with me. I will NOT cry just because you can't go, I'm asking you because I do feel like you would be a great company. If not, no big deal, and it pisses me off with your RUBBISH excuses.
