What phrases are better not to say — they repel people from you.

Here are the statements that can harm your relationships with others

'No problem'

This can sound like an unfriendly response to gratitude. It is better to say something more positive, for example, 'I was glad to help'.

'It's all right'

Frequent use of this phrase may indicate distrust or disorientation. It is better to respond honestly, for example, 'everything is fine' or 'I'm having a bad day today'.

'It wasn't hard'

This may leave the impression that you find the task boring. It is better to say, 'I was happy to help you'.

'I'm really sorry I can't help'

This may be an attempt to avoid a direct refusal. It is simpler and more sincere to explain the reason for the refusal to avoid appearing indifferent.

'Maybe'

This phrase can reduce interest in further conversation. It is better to express your opinion clearly to avoid uncertainty.
