not interested
Lacking any curiosity
Not interested expresses a lack of curiosity, enthusiasm, or willingness to engage with something.
It's a polite but firm refusal: Thanks, but I'm not interested.
The phrase can dismiss romantic advances, sales pitches, or invitations.
It may also describe genuine indifference rather than active rejection: She's just not interested in sports.
