How do I let a friend down without hurting them.

I recently went on holiday with a friend and had a good time now she wants to plan another long distance holiday but I want to go on my own and do my own things but I don't want to hurt her feelings. How do I break it to her I want to go on my own without upsetting her. Please help.

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.
