Just say, "I must politely abstain your indecent notion. Now will you please close your shirt, I'm into Plato, not Aristotle."

So you are a people pleaser too. I have the same problem. Everyone always comes to me when they need or want something because I can't say no. For awhile, I contemplated making up BS excuses, but I'm not much of a liar, then a friend of mine came up with a better idea. When someone asks you to do something, say "I'd love to help you out, but unfortunately I have other obligations". This way, you say no, without actually saying it and the person isn't mad because you expressed how much you'd like to help. My life has been a lot less chaotic because of this and since I began doing it, the questions aren't coming as often as they use to.

Ooooh....don't make the same mistake I did for the better part of my life. If you don't want to or can't do something just be direct and say no. Some people may get upset but most will respect your honesty. Don't be cruel about it though....just remember that everyone has feelings. It's helpfull to practice a bit so you know what to say in any given situation. If caught off gaurd a person is more likely to agree to something they don't want to. Take care and I hope you have an amazing evening!

Saying "no" should not be a problem. Just say it and offer no excuses or explainations. The word "no" is pretty much self explanatory.
