10 More Things You Should Never Have to Apologize For

3.  Saying “No.”

Most of us as women would like to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy and that everything is taken care of.  For example, whenever I’m out for a night on the town with friends, even though we are all adults, I still make it my personal responsibility to know how everyone is getting home at the end of the night.  I don’t like to leave anyone stranded or taking public transportation alone at night.  But sometimes I have to remind myself that these are my friends and not my children, and if I don’t want to play chauffeur at night simply because I’m tired or don’t feel like driving across the city in the wee hours of the morning, that’s OKAY.  You don’t owe anyone an explanation or a reason when you just don’t feel like doing something sometimes, but at the same time, don’t be selfish to people who have hooked you up in the past.
