Oh, im absolutely honest about it! DGMW, I will go above and beyond to spare someone’s feelings, and just stay and finish out the evening. It’s a small price to not hurt another human being’s feelings! But if he's just so rude, or so obnoxious, especially if it is towards the wait-staff that I cannot stand another second of his behavior… I’ll absolutely tell him that he’s rude arrogant and obnoxious, wish him a happy life and just leave! (Its one of the reasons, I’ll always drive myself to any first, and most second dates!)

I have never tried to get out of a date… I have considered it but then I just thought fuck it because he was really nice and I thought “at least I can be nice and then let him know nicely that I am not interested” lol

it didn’t work… he switched from nice to asshole in a matter of seconds so I literally just walked out, while he was embarrassing himself lol

I simply say, I'm sorry, I just don't feel that this is going well.
I'm glad I got the chance to meet you, but I'm just not the right person for you.
I've done that after dinner, and pay the bill, otherwise we just part ways.
I think most people appreciate the honesty.

If I don’t know someone, I make the first date shirt: coffee or something equally simple so it can end quickly. The I sent not have t get out of it, it can be over in twenty minutes. If it’s going well then it’s easy enough to have another, or move on to lunch or dinner.

I said I needed to go to the toilet, instead I called a taxi to go home. I was young and during the days, I just started to feel uncomfortable.

When in doubt make sure a reliable friend knows where you’re going to be and what time the date starts.

have them call you every 30 minutes or every hour and check on you. If at the point of each call it’s going bad then when the friend calls you say “wait! What happened? OMG! Are they ok? I’m on my way to the hospital right now!”

know what hospital is close…but just grab a cab and gtfo of there

yell over your shoulder “I’ll call you later!”

keep running!

Tell her my member got caught in my zipper and I had to go to the hospital. But really, I never made up an excuse to get out of a bad date. I think I was always very optimistic.

Blackcosmo · Answer

I've never been on a date but my style would be getting out of there saying someone really needs me as a text or phone call.

It depends what kind of a bad date it is. If he seems to be a little boring or I find something i'm not interested in him then I'll sit tightly and wait for it to be over. If he's rude or not paying attention at all then I'll use my getaway plan.

BarryLiverstone · Answer

The times this has happened I’ll usually just look for ways to end the date quickly. Like if we are eating dinner and I originally wanted to take a walk after dinner I’ll just thank her for meeting me and walk her to her car so she’s safe.

ArtemisSilver · Answer

I usually finish my drink, thank them for the company and give them a warm touch on the shoulder. Then leave.

DenizLikesTennis · Answer

I would embrace the feeling as best as I possibly could and continue talking with her, have my meal then leave.

wheresmrcunnunglis · Answer

I just flat out tell them in a courteous manner that its not working out and that I would like to leave. Simple as that. Since I would want the person to give me that same courtesy in return if I were on the receiving end.

Describe Bad Date…I’ve had bad dates that she never knew it was bad.-This is the way to handle a bad date. Grace, gentleness, calm energy and smile…work through it. The last thing one wants is to make an enemy. Define bad date ⁉️

GoodGuyBreakingBad · Answer

One time I ended up not going back out with her all she did was talk about a guy who didn't like her.

AviatorTom · Answer

That hasn't happened often to me, but the few times it has, I've been brutally honest. "I'm not going to make our date. Why not find someone else to go out with."

Nikki1989 · Answer

I just tell them the truth and head home. I have had to do it a few times.

Agape93 · Answer

I just straight up leave usually. Otherwise I'll go to the restroom, and just walk out and not come back. Block them and leave it be.
