Then just say, “No, that won’t work out for us.” Done.

Discomfort is present only if you suspect they're a Guesser and thus one of you has greatly misjudged the relationship and social context.
If you know or suspect they're an Asker the discomfort disappears because you say "No" and they say "OK, cool".
