1. When you refuse your mother’s food after a fight and she says “okay oh”.

2. When you say no the first time and he doesn’t ask you out again.

3. When you don’t eat as much as you would like and you are hungry right after.

4. When you decline using the toilet somewhere nice and now your bladder is about to burst.

5. When you say “oh no thanks” when your father offers to pay for something and now your money has finished.

6. When someone compliments you and you deflect so they stop.

7. When you reject a lift and now you have to squeeze yourself in public transport.

8. When you say you don’t like surprises and your boyfriend takes you seriously so no party for you.
