How to Say "NO"

[tweetybird]

How would you say NO to a person na hindi magiging negative ang approach sa kanya? Let's say he's asking a favor but you want to say NO.

How would you say it in a nice way?

for me tweetybird...

maybe it`s only depend on the situation...depende sa uri ng favor na hinihingi nya...kung alam kong makakasama para sa akin or para rin sa kanya...i will tell it in a big "NO"..at paprangkahin ko na sya...para rin naman sa ikabubuti namin pareho eh... with matching hug en kiss :sweeties:

but if the favor is hindi makakasama pero di ko naman maibibigay or magagawa for some reason...i will tell na lang din sa kanya ang totoong reason...[it means NO parin ang sagot ko..]pero in telling the thrut reason...at ng sa ganon malaman man nya sa iba...eh totoo un reason ko...at di sya magdaramdam sa akin.... also with matching hug en kiss uli :kiss:

siguro naman di na sya magagalit sa akin non... :jiggy:

for you tweetybird..if i were you..tell it frankly!!! pero un totoong reason mo kung bakit "NO" ang sagot mo sa favor na hinihingi nya sayo...i do think na maiintindihan ka nya...tell it frankly na di ka galit ha....peace tayo :sweeties:

For me depende sa favor na hinihingi. Kung kaya ko naman bakit hindi. Pero kung di ko kaya di ko pinapaasa, hirap kasi yung oo nga ako pero sa ilong lang pala lumabas. Ako sa lahat pa naman ng ayaw ko yung pinapaasa ako sa wala. Kaya ganun din ginagawa ko, kung wala wala para makagawa pa sya ng paraan.

Tell him straight kung anong nasasa-loob mo... Wala nang paligoy-ligoy pa... Mahirap kasi yung pinapaasa mo pa and at the end hindi mo naman pala matutulungan... at least kung nasabi mo na sa kanya na No... nasa kanya na yun kung sasama loob nya diba? ;)

@tweetybird

.. tell the person ' I can .. but I won't' :D

seriously, tell the person na lang na as much as you would like to help, pero medyo you also have a lot of things on your hands right now... straight but not brutal :)

Try to say it in a nice way pero pag ayaw parin makinig ay kailangan ng dramatic approach at sabihin mo na lang ito,
"Youre nothing but the second best, copycat!" tapos sabay snub and turn ... (joke-joke)

Nakalimutan mo pre, yong "trying hard" part. Yun ang pinakamatindi dun..

"You're nothing but the second best, trying hard, copycat!" :D

For tweety, I think it depends on who you're saying the NO to. Kung hapon iyan, a simple variation of "Chotto ~" is enough to bring the message of difficulty accross.

"Hmm, Chotto ne..." , " Tasukete agetai kedo, chotto komarimasu ne.." Or chotto muzukashii...

But kung pinoy iyan, a simple, direct to da point, walang paligoy-ligoy na NO is appropriate. Sometimes kaya natatalo sa bargaining ang pinoy, he says more than he need to - you really do not need to defend your position, its the other way around.

"I wish I could help you, but I can't for the moment due to personal reasons that need my immediate attention."

Now you seem to be the one who needs a favor. :D

No problem bro.

Works every time. Especially on those favors I'm not comfortable in doing so, without offending the person much. :)
