i'm so confused
i went out to eat with kristi (from church) yesterday, and as we were talking, she, in passing, mentioned a women's small group about leadership and said i should join. she didn't say any more than that, and i let it slide, seeing as i'm an extremely non-commital person.
so today i check my email and there's one from my pastor's wife to everyone in this group, "I wanted to let you know that Melilot Brandybuck has joined our ranks as well...so we are now 10...Melilot - read the email below for instructions about the blog. And WELCOME! :) I'm going to assume that Kristi has taken care of getting you the devotional stuff."
huh?

well, i'd assume that note helped you decide one way or another whether or not you want to join. if you want to, or just want to know more, contact the pastor's wife and say "i'm interested, but would like more info"
if you don't want to, contact her and say "i'm sorry if there was a miscommunication, but this just isn't something i'm able to do right now (or 'this isn't something i'm really interested in', if that's the honest truth)"
at any rate, looks like you have to make a decision. no fence riding on this one!
Talk about a misunderstanding! I guess you'll have to start being less non-committal. ;)
First question: do you want to join?
i don't know - cuz i don't know what it is!
ask for more information. just be honest, tell her you hadn't actually said you'd join because you wanted to know more about it.
(and yes, it's okay to say no after that if you so desire. and no, you don't have to give an excuse)
i ended up going with the 'completely ignore it' option
That works. ;)
