use this line

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If someone pushes (and pushes and pushes) when you politely decline something (anything) feel free to use this line.

For the people pleasers in the room, sometimes it's hard to come up with something to say in the moment when you're under pressure to hold the line -- I suggest having a couple of "rehearsed" responses ready to fall back on.

I suspect a gentle delivery is as effective a way to draw your boundary as a more vehement line reading, but do what's right for you in the moment.
