I like that, it is a good solution, but I'm afraid they will think of me as stupid and say "Yeah..why wouldn't you be you always are". But I hate definitive answers like that. I'm ALWAYS invited. I don't mind being left out of activities some time. Two of my best friends hang out together all the time alone without me even though I COULD attend. I don't care, sometimes people just need to spend time with others and not always me.
It's awful, I just decline to go everytime, and then of course I am always asked the question "Why didn't you show up last night"....its bull**** I tell you
Mmm, this works but I think Detty has the better solution. What if that person DIDN'T invite you this time, and then its just awkward because even though you ask "what are you up to this evening?". They know you are really asking "Yo I heard about some wild **** going down at your house, how come you didnt invite me"
People who I dont like but like going to parties/hang outs always try to pull this trick on me, and I tell them I am not available because I have other plans that evening, the plans being the hangout that I don't want them attending
