It's no secret that our friends are our support and support, as we are for them. Everywhere and always we support them, but sometimes situations occur in which their interest is contrary to ours, or they themselves do not know what they are doing, but turn to us for help. And we have to refuse them.
Instructions
Step 1
First of all, listen to whatever your friend has to say to you. Let him speak to the end. It may well be that you do not see the whole picture, but only see what he wants to show you.
Step 2
Find out why he needs what he asks for. Don't be satisfied with short answers, ask from start to finish. Argument your inquiries by the fact that you do not understand why he is addressing you specifically, that he actually has the capabilities and resources for independent action.
Step 3
Ask for time to make a decision. An instant rejection can easily alienate a person from you, and if not forever, then definitely for a long time. The time can be anything - from a few hours to a couple of days, but it must be.
