Giving LinkedIn recommendations.

Someone I used to work with asked me for one and I don't feel comfortable giving them one for a variety of reasons...I have just been ignoring the request but I feel like it's rude and need to just say something in response as to why I don't want to. Has anyone else been in this situation before and have a suggestion for what to say?
