How do I let a friend down without hurting them. I recently went on holiday with a friend and...

Hey, I want to go do a trip by myself.

Less bullshit and straight honesty is usually better overall

Organize the next holiday with her to happen in 2026.. So next year you can go on a holiday by yourself in 2025.. Problem solved..

Just be honest or option two, you travel to get her but do things separately. Either way, make it clear that you want to do your own activities and that some may differ from what she likes. I think she'll understand.

Do it early and in stages. Tell her what your plans and how important they are for you. Give her a chance to be excited about your plans.

You will have to hurt her feelings, just be kind about it

Explain it simply. Kindly. If she is your friend, she will understand.

Tell them right away so they don't make plans.
