We also can invite someone by talk directly to that person. And he/she can accept or refuse/decline our invitation. Below is the example dialog that shows one invitation from the boy declining by the girl, and the other one had accepted.

Boy: “This weekend Andrew, Donny, and I are going to the night fair. Would you like to join us?”

Girl: “I’d love to”

Boy: “Good. Then, after the fair, we plan to eat spaghetti at Mr.Joe’s”

Girl: “sorry, but I don’t like spaghetti. So, I’ll go home first”

Boy: “That’s ok”.
