The BIGGEST thing to understand when learning to be assertive and set appropriate boundaries is that no one is ENTITLED to a REASON. (exception: your significant other, maybe your parents in the context of an important family thing)
So an answer like, “Sorry, I won’t be able to make that, but thanks for asking,” — that is ENOUGH.
Anyone who keeps pushing for a “reason” is automatically rude, and you can just keep repeating a variation of the above.
“Sorry, it just won’t work for me. Maybe next time.”
Etc.
