Do keep in mind that if a friend actually follows through, you've significantly raised the stakes of saying "no" later.
I understood quite clearly that he wouldn't have said "no" earlier so this is a significant improvement. But yes, I understand your comment as reminding readers that they may have less problems of saying "no" initially and for them it may make things more difficult instead of improving things.
Absolutely - so don't be insincere in the setup. If you think "no way", say "no way".
