Text my Ex #9
Text My Ex: "I say no without justification."
You don’t owe a paragraph, a backstory, or a courtroom defense for your no.
If it doesn’t work for you, the answer is simply:
“No, that doesn’t work for me.”
Here are some different variations and tones to utilize based on the scenario you might be in:
👇
🔥 Direct & Firm
Option 1:
“No, that doesn’t work for me.”
Option 2:
“I’m saying no. I’m not open to discussing it further.”
Option 3:
“That’s a no from me.”
Option 4:
“I won’t be doing that.”
🌿 Calm & Neutral (Healthy / Co-parenting Safe)
Option 6:
“No, that won’t work for me. Thanks for understanding.”
Option 7:
“I’m unable to agree to that.”
Option 8:
“That doesn’t work for my schedule.”
Option 9:
“I’m not available for that.”
Option 10:
“I’m going to pass on this.”
🧊 Polite but Unmovable
Option 11:
“No, I’m not comfortable with that.”
Option 12:
“I won’t be agreeing to this.”
Option 13:
“That’s not something I’m willing to do.”
Option 14:
“I’m declining.”
Option 15:
“I’m not saying yes.”
🚫 Boundary + Close the Door
Option 16:
“No. Please respect my decision.”
Option 17:
“I’ve already given my answer.”
Option 18:
“This isn’t up for discussion.”
Option 19:
“I’m not revisiting this conversation.”
Option 20:
“The decision is final.”
🧠 Emotionally Mature / Regulated
Option 21:
“I’m choosing not to do that.”
Option 22:
“This doesn’t align with what I’m available for.”
Option 23:
“I’m not open to this.”
Option 24:
“I’m opting out.”
Option 25:
“That’s not a yes for me.”
🥀 Trauma-Informed / Gentle
Option 26:
“I’m not able to offer that.”
Option 27:
“I’m taking care of myself by saying no.”

“I’m not in a place to do that.”
Option 29:
