Immagine there's someone you don't know very well, and whom you grew to dislike (for whatever reason). Immagine also that this person is actively seeking your company (for whatever reason). What would you do?
a) Tell them straight, that they rub you the wrong way (e.g. "I don't like you, get off my back, don't call me again"). Slam the phone.
b) Tell them off firmly but gently (e.g. "This relationship is not working for me. I would rather not meet. Please respect my wishes"). Refuse to talk to them again.
c) Tell them a "white lie", so they get the point (e.g. "I am really busy this month, so I don't see anyone who's not family"). Repeat if necessary.
d) Something else?
Comments are welcome.
