In today's Dear Annie column, Annie Lane offers advice to a reader on how to tell another woman why she doesn't want to socialize with her.

Besides being a bad driver, today's reader did not care for the way a dinner companion treated their waitress. Annie Lane advises them to tell her that the next time she asks.

Some time ago, I went to dinner with two single senior ladies. I made the decision to not spend time with one of them again since I was very uncomfortable with her. She drove that night and was possibly the worst driver I’ve ever seen. Very scary! She was not drinking but was possibly on meds. Also, the restaurant was packed, and she treated the waitress rudely and was very demanding. My choice was to not socialize with her again, though we live in the same area and have occasion to speak. The other day, she put me on the spot and said she wants to know why I don’t like her. I avoided answering, but I think this will happen again.
