How to use "Clammed up" in context?
Last night, I tried to talk to my best friend about going to a party with us tomorrow night, but she kept clammed up. I don't know what's wrong, but she's not being very communicative lately. I'm starting to feel like she's avoiding me, and I don't know why. I hope she's not getting mad at me for asking her to the party, because I really want to go.
