"Una amiga quiere ir de viaje conmigo" ;) Puedes decirle: "Muchas gracias por tu invitación. Lo siento mucho, pero (este/ese fin de semana) no puedo acompañarte". - Cordobesa, Feb 17, 2012

I would say. ¡Que pena contigo pero no me puedo quedar durante la noche! Ya tengo otros planes, pero gracias de todos modos!

  • I'm sorry but I cannot stay overnight! I already have plans, but thank you anyways!

No, no puedo ir contigo. Tengo que pintar mi casa.

No, I can't go with you. I have to paint my house.

Suggestion: "Es muy halagador que quieras que pasemos la noche pero me gustaria que esperaramos un poco mas eres muy linda y no quisiera echar a perder nuestra amistad".

Good luck.

I could advise you in English but not in Spanish.

Oh dear Mr Straw, I am really not in a relationship of that nature we are merely

fellow twitchers on an excursion to actuate the habits of the " Purple ringed tit" .
