Whether it's because your red flags crewneck warned you that the person across from you is probably *toxic* af, or just because the date is deadly boring, it's not always easy to know how to leave a date... appropriately? If this kind of thing happens to you (unfortunately) way too often, here, FINALLY, are 10 amazing excuses to make a smooth (or not) exit from a bad date!
#1 - The classic
“I'm going to the bathroom, be right back.”
#2 - The good news
“My ex just texted me, we're getting back together after all.”
#3 - The matchmaker
“Hey, I was just thinking, I've got the perfect person to introduce you to. You two would be a perfect match.”
#4 - The mystic
“Unfortunately our zodiac signs aren't compatible, sorry.”
#5 - The honest one
“You seem really cool, but I don't see a romantic future for us.”
#6 - The practical one
“Shoot, I have to go home, I think I left a candle burning.”
#7 - The locked-out roommate
“My roommate just texted me that she forgot her keys, I have to go let her in. ”
#8 - The early bird
“I have to go to bed, I start work at 4 am tomorrow.”
#9 - The digestive one
“I can't poop anywhere but at home. And I really need to poop. ”
#10 - The small appetite
“I think the soup was enough, I'm not that hungry. Check, please!”
Obviously, my favourite is still #5. It's less funny, but in my opinion it's way more respectful (but props to you if you use #9).
