Answer explanation

Not responding to someone’s invitation can send one of two messages:

• - You’re not interested at all, or

• - You missed the communication — which can suggest disorganization.

Taking a moment to respond, even if you can’t attend, shows respect and gratitude for the opportunity. It lets the inviter know you value being included and would appreciate future invitations.
