TDLR - How to say No When Someone Asks You To 'Grab a beer Sometime'
I haven't spoke to this bloke for about 8 years, I barely even spoke to him in high school. Its nice he has asked me but to be honest I really don't know the bloke and generally didn't like him before and don't know what he is like now.
It came out of the blue, sure it might be a nice laugh but I just would feel good having a one on one chat with someone I have basically never know. It would all be reminisce and a bit pointless.
So how do I say thanks but no thanks without shutting him out of my life completely and being a rude guy

"That" pattern, eh? I'd wager he wants you to lend him some money, at least I would know a couple of those types.
Either way, just spin some bullshit about you "being busy" this month. Chances are high, that he won't get back at it.
Say 'thanks but no thanks'. Why do you want to avoid shutting him out of your life, it sounds like you want to do exactly that.

What the Fuck is TDLR
Just say, "Yeah, definitely."
Then watch as it just doesn't come up again.

Too didn't, long read
I just say "Yeah for sure man, sometime"
And then like >>17349553 said, it literally never comes up again.
