This is actually extremely obnoxious behavior and a big reason I stopped speaking to my mother. If the answer is "no" say "no." Only say "I'll think about it" if you really intend on thinking about it with a plan on when you'll get back to that person. OR the person you're talking to is a salesperson who is someone you will literally never see again.
If you have trouble saying no, then it's best to work on THAT.
- vouaobrasil 4y agoI don't have a problem saying no. Like I said, I sometimes do come back and say "yes", and I can recall such instances. When I mean no, I say no.
