Any thoughts?


If it is convenient for you and if you don't mind her taking up the space, say yes. But, but, but ~ you have plans. You WILL go out at night - you do NOT have time to hang out and keep her company. All you have to offer her is fresh air (not paint fumes!). Stuck has a life!

Or....
"I'm kinda busy, having a friend over that night" ,etc.

No one says you have to let her stay over.

You do what you want to do.

Don't do what "feels right", uggg... if I hear that one more time on this forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It feels right to pursue them, to preach undying love & devotion, to be a wussy, to buy gifts, to buy dinners, to let them walk all over you because you love them and want to prove to them that you'll always be there for them.

A confident, stable, masculine man does what he wants to do, not what he's pressured into doing. It's ok to say NO, trust me, people do it all the time.

"You know what, I was thinking about it and I don't know if I'm comfortable with that".

You could let her stay wherever her sister is going to be staying during the "painting", let her inconvenience her, you don't have wuss out and say yes definitely stay with me, I'll do anything for you.
