You definitely don't need to feel guilty. . . that's just a time waster, and time you can be devoting to that fabulous new partner! I don't have sales reps calling because I got rid of my land line and just have my cellphone and they don't know about it yet. When someone comes to the door, I just smile sweetly and tell them I am not interested in whatever they are selling and close the door. (except for the Girl Scout cookies)
