Focus on what you want the other person to know. Approach the conversation in a level-headed way, and really think about what you want to say. For instance, if it's important to you that the friendship continues no matter what their answer is, let them know that. Don't push the person to answer you right away. It's very important that the other person has time to think about how they feel without being pressured to reply immediately. Give them an escape route so they can talk to you when they feel comfortable about it.

Just say, "Sorry for any misunderstanding, but my party is only for a few people and I didn't invite you. You didn't invite me to your party, so it's only...
