The fundamental for me is to NEVER enquire a yeah or no question, such equally "Do you lot desire to consume luncheon now?"

I volition either tell "Let's convey or together with hence lunch" or "I idea nosotros should eat" or something along those lines.

If they intend they are joining you lot inwards something that YOU desire to do, they are much to a greater extent than agreeable.

If you lot pose it dorsum on them past times bespeak if they desire to, it requires equally good much thinking together with figuring out if they desire to create that thing or if they would rather but remain where they are since they are tired anyway.

You tin also plough over "choices" similar "Do you lot desire to consume luncheon at 1 time or inwards a few minutes?"

If it's something they actually don't similar to do, such equally shower, you lot but assume matter-of-factly that they volition live on showering together with tell things similar "Here, this is the washcloth for your shower" or "Here are build clean socks for afterwards your shower", etc.

If they tell that they aren't showering, repeat what they said dorsum to them "Oh, you lot aren't showering?" Then they volition know that you lot heard them together with you lot tin popular off along alongside "After you lot shower, we'll create (your favorite thing)"...

Thank you lot Claudia.
