  • Treat them as though you would like to be treated is the best advice here.
  • Empathize, don't sympathize.
  • Be honest yet not derogatory.
  • Make it quick and simple but not without a clearly defined reason (not my type, don't see you that way, too old/young).
  • Make sure you don't try to lessen the blow by giving him/her a glimmer of hope that you may be interested in the future if you don't plan on it ever happening.
  • Avoid doing it in public if possible (no one wants to be rejected in front of a group, but sometimes people ask you out in front of one and it can't be helped)
  • Although this would be in the aftermath, don't talk about it with your friends (i.e. "you would not believe who just asked me out"). Speaking from a dude's perspective, I ask girls out on a fairly regular basis or at least have to initiate on a regular basis and rejection just happens to us all the time and it's understandable, but getting talked about is never fun.
  • If you were asked out over text, respond. Being left hanging is also never cool.
  • If you feel that someone you know is going to ask you out that you don't want to date, try to stop it before it happens. (personal note: I once did this to a girl who literally had my exact schedule in college. All of our classes everyday were identical. It took me about 4 days of hanging out with her to realize that I could not continue this but everyone we saw [friends, even the cashier's at the cafeteria] would talk to us like a couple even though I was just trying to not be rude by ignoring this girl who was going to be with me all day everyday all semester. I didn't realize that she took these comments seriously until she started to really cozy up. It ended badly and publicly.)
  • Like everything in life, it may seem easier at first to avoid the problem or not tell the whole truth when breaking bad news to someone but also like everything in life it ends a lot better and goes smoother when you tackle it head on and give the situation the respect it deserves.
  • I would also advise against commentating on the future (lets be friends, I like how things are now so let's not change that). It's not for you to decide at the moment as it's not you that is being hurt but they are. If you don't want to be friends, then the rejection should be enough reason for you to not see them. If you do want to remain friends then the next time you see him/her give them space but don't avoid them either. Just treat them as you normally would but understand if they are not ready to accept that just yet.

What are the rising action, climax, falling action, resolution of the story hey come on out.​
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Rising Action: People investigate. A young man yells down the hole to see if it was a fox hole or something. He then throws down  pebble to hear when it hits the ground but they never herd it. The scientist tries to figure out what it is and how it got there. Some one tries to use rope to see how deep it is. When they figure it´s an extremely big hole, the mayor gives it away and people start throwing in old diaries, old newspapers, garbage nuclear waste and anything else they do not want.

Climax: When the village starts to get bigger because of all the people who want to work for the man who owns the hole and they have to build more buildings. One day a construction worker, was standing on top of the building and looked up at the sky because he thought he heard someone say ¨H-Hey, come on ou-t¨ Then a pebble falls from the sky as well but he fails to notice.

Falling action: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.

Resolution: There really isn´t one. The story leaves us readers to figure out what happened.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

Author: Thanhha Lai

Genre: Historical Fiction

Topics: Brothers and Sisters, Friendship, Great Girl Role Models, Misfits and Underdogs

Book type: Fiction

Publisher: HarperCollins Children's Books

Publication date: February 22, 2011

Number of pages: 272

Award: Newbery Medal and Honors

Last updated: December 19, 2020

<u>______________________________________________</u>

Thanhha Lai was born in the country of Vietnam. She and her family escaped to Alabama at the end of the war. She learned English from fourth-graders there, and then spent the next ten years improving her grammar. She began her journalism career as a reporter at The Orange County Register. She shifted to fiction, earning an MFA from New York University and having short stories published in a variety of periodicals and anthologies.

Then followed "Inside Out & Back Again," a verse book that won a National Book Award and a Newbery Honor based in part on her youth as a refugee in Alabama. The following book was "Listen, Slowly," a middle grade fiction about a young Vietnamese-American girl.

It's a stark and honest tale that follows Hà as she leaves behind the only home she's ever known to journey to America by boat. Hà and her family struggle to find their footing in the United States, despite the fact that she has left the conflict behind. They're finally gaining their bearings towards the end of the year and as the book closes everyone clutching onto faith that things would get better.

The narrative takes place over the course of a year and is told in brief free-verse poems: As the Communists take over her hometown of Saigon in 1975, 10-year-old Ha and her family are forced to flee Vietnam. Ha's family arrives in Alabama with a sponsor family after covertly escaping by ship and residing in two temporary refugee camps.

They must learn a new language, attend school, look for jobs, establish friends, cope with bullying and mistrust  and figure out how to become American citizens. They must also say a final, symbolic goodbye to Ha's father, who has been missing in action for the past ten years.

Tenacity, courage, and intelligence are among Ha's characteristics in Inside Out and Back Again. She's also hesitant and frightened, which is understandable considering her family's situation.

Inside Out and Back Again's dilemma is that the Vietnam War was approaching Saigon, forcing them to flee to Alabama. Inside Out and Back Again begins with Ha arriving at her new school, unable to communicate with anybody and being ridiculed because she is different from everyone else.

Her migration to America brings with it a slew of new obstacles. All refugees confront obstacles such as bullying, prejudice, and a lack of language skills. Inside Out and Back Again is a storey about a refugee's common experience. These difficulties are depicted in Ha's narrative.
