Please help me I dont wanna end up falling out with her and a little lie wouldnt hurtI need advice! My friend has asked me to go blackpool tuesday and i might be going monday with my mum and bro?
if you lie then you will get caught out, tell her that you are going with your mum and dad and they can't afford two days out, she may say its not fair but there is not a lot you can do about that she will get over it, have fun with your family,I need advice! My friend has asked me to go blackpool tuesday and i might be going monday with my mum and bro?
Sounds to me like you want to do the trip with your mum and bro , so that is exactly what you should do .


Tell her that you already have arrangements for Monday and therefore can not go again on Tuesday .


If she is a real friend she will understand , and if she doesn't she is not worth all this worrying about


You go Monday and have a great time
Just tell her the truth, you've already planned to go with family, she's has to learn you can't have everything want, life doesn't work like that, so put your foot down and tell her.
tell her that you want to spend some time with your family and that you and your mum and bro planned this ages ago. maybe suggest to her that she invites someone else?





and i'm not being funny or nothing but your mate sounds like a spoilt brat who needs a slap tbh. no offence.
Hi there,





Ask your friend if she wants to go to Blackpool on the Monday instead of the Tuesday.


Point out that you cant afford to go for two days it will cost too must money.


If you did go with your mam and brother go off for an hour to and do your own thing and meet up later.





Hope this adivse is ok.
Sorry - ditch the friend, she isn't one. Friends come and go but your Mum and Brother will be there for you when she's long gone. If she's that spoilt I don't know why you even need to ask this question. You don't have to make excuses, just tell her that you have already organised to go to Blackpool with your Mum and Brother. You can go to Blackpool with her another time. Tell her to go with another friend (that's if she has one)
Once with my friend called me and wanted to come for a sleepover that day in an hour. My mum wasn't even back yet and pushy she was. Every five minutes she rang and asked. She knew she would get her own way. So I didn't ask I just said ';that she couldn't';





She hated me for a bit but in the end she realised that I wasn't rude, I showed her that she couldn't have her own way even though I risked my ONLY friend.





Tell your friend a strate answer like:


';I'm afraid I can't come with you. ';


And if she gets angry say:


';You can't always get your way';


and wait for reply and if she doesn't hang up.





She doesn't sound like a true friend.
Tell her you can't afford to go to Blackpool. And don't tell her anything about Monday unless she asks about Monday. The less lies the better - even if they are little. Tell too many and you will forget what you said and you're friend will figure you out anyway.





The best option would be to just tell her straight out that you are going on monday with your mum because you WANT to go with your mum and then say you can't afford to go twice. If she's a real friend she'll understand - if she doesn't understand is she really a ';friend';????
stand up for yourself and if she cant understand that you cant go on tuesday then leave her off..its not good for someone to click there fingers and you run to them, let your friend no that and be confident in it!! you go girl!! =) x
ok, can u suugest an alternative? it sounds like your firend likes to control things. Maybe if you gave her a few similar alternatives, just tell her you don't fancy blackpool but how about doing x, y or z instead? that way she'll feel like she's choosing and still in control - everyone's a winner ;)
A lie might not hurt, but it will end you up in the same situation over and over again. I'd try a two-pronged approach, firstly, say as you wrote above and explain that you dont have the money. (You could be even more blunt and say '; I'm not as lucky as you Hannah, my parents don't have as much money'; this might embarrass her into understanding.)


Secondly, suggest an alternative, on another day, or in a different place. You could think of something free to do, so she'll still have the pleasure of going out with you, but it won't be costing money. Something fun to do at the moment is collecting blackberries and cooking them - free food :-) But there's other things you could find out in your area too.
just say


';well you know hannah lifes not fair.reality check your not the center of my like ok?!';





or





';sorry hannah my mom really needs me now more then ever...';
