I Agree It Is Not The Most Refined Way
by: Eunice

Dear Anthony,

I wholeheartedly agree with your view.

"I'll pass" does show a little thoughtlessness and should only be used for very very very casual invitations, or not used at all.

It is certainly not a way to respond to an invitation where the host has put in considerable effort.

There are many other ways to politely and graciously decline an invitation. After all, getting invited is a kind and thoughtful gesture.

It is hard to make being kind and having manners a priority in someone else so try not to take offense, grinning and bearing it the best you can.
