You have Covid. That's a great excuse. Just stop going. Tell them your dog died, you have a eye infection, elevator stopped working, you have temporary amnesia.

Do you NEED to go? What happens if you just... dont? I mean, wouldnt it feel better to just put your foot down and say "heck with it, I aint doing it"?

Sometimes, setting boundaries means saying no without a reason or an excuse. You are allowed to just say no.

Agree with @Rodafina 100%. Especially applies if you're not relying on them for anything or 'owe' them anything in return. I honestly only spend time with family because I want to, not because I'm obligated to.

As a person with anxiety, l had a backpack full of excuses to whip out at a moment's notice. Especially for family events.
