How would or have you gotten out of a bad date?


I’m pretty straightforward. I get ifs awkward but it’s kind of cowardly to just ditch someone or make up a lie. Just be kind and say it’s not working out.
This is why coffee is a good first date. Nobody feels obligated to be there if the date goes great you can hang out for a while but either person if they feel uncomfortable can dip. Even if the date goes decently sometimes it can get awkward when you both overstay one another’s welcome. That point where there really isn’t much to talk about anymore and you know.
One of the up sides to modern dating is most women rather meet up with you versus have you pick them up as was tradition … so if the date sucks now and if there is a bill involved … I pay my portion and say, “I’m done.” In the back when days when women were picked up from home was the only time I ended a date early. She was insufferable. I took her home which for whatever reason surprised her. She wanted to argue then apologize and when that didn’t work, became insulting as I held my door open. She finally got the point and got out in silence. Yeah, the up side to just meeting up I do appreciate. Granted I never net another i sufferable date since that one.
I have never left a bad date but I once had a stranger approach me at McDonalds asking me if I had a boyfriend and telling me he was a drug dealer. I smiled and said I had to leave and then left the restaurant without learning his name or sharing my name. It was a place I used to visit multiple times a week so he probably saw me more than once before he approached me.
That was your one chance to become a “mob wife” though.
He wanted to do more activities, but I said “I have plans with friends at this time.” And literally I made spontaneous plans with friends to meet since it was a bad date and needed a better night out.
“I have to go home now since I have work at this time — tomorrow.” Simple & casual.

I've told this story before.
After my divorce, I met this woman online, and we agreed to meet for dinner at a Chinese restaurant. She was late, and when she walked in, she was obese, not at all like her online pictures, wore a tight skimpy pink outfit, and the first thing she said to me was "My pussy is so wet." I immediately excused my self and left her there. We never spoke again.
Yikes!
I have just been honest and ask her if she though it was going well, or just let her know this was not going to turn out well.
Most times we both knew, so we would finish dinner, I would grab the check, walk her out to her car, bid her well and we would both be on our separate ways.
it happens, so why keep it going?
I wouldn't. I kind of had something like this happened. I just held out 'til it was over. They already drove all the way to meet me so I didn't wanna just ditch them and not like I had anything better to do anyways. So I just finished off the day and then never met with her again
Lop I've never gone on a date and had it go poorly, but that's partially because I've very intentionally avoided going on dates with certain people 😂
Usually I just tell girls I'm not interested in that I'm working on myself.
1. Because it's true
2. Because it's a whole lot more polite than saying "I think you're a mean person"
There was only one time I wanted to call the date short and leave because it was a nice sunny day out and the girl literally just sat there at the table and hardly said a word. I mean it was obvious she wasn't interested, but I mean she was like that straight from the minute I got there.
“I appreciate you taking the time to meet me, but I don't think this is the right fit. I wish you all the best, see ya.”
I just finish the meal and take her home. Or just go our separate ways after we split the bill. Once I had my friend call me so I can make an excuse to skip the after-meal plans to drink at her place. She pretty much catfished me, so whatever.
I say I'm going to the bathroom and I take the opportunity to leave the place. I did that with a woman who was short, but in her photos she looked taller.
I've never gone on a true date with a lady who was so vile that I felt the need to end it early. If she is okay but just "not for me" I continue the date and have fun. I'm not into being mean just because we don't romantically click.
I can only remember one really bad date. A friend fixed me up with somebody he knew from high school. We did not like each other at all.
I would tell her straight up that the date is going bad and I don’t wanna waste anymore time
Tell her something came up and I have to take her home (if I pick her up)
I secretly write a message to a friend and ask them to call me urgently.
I'm just honest and end it. I do the same for relationships that have ran their course.
Do the classic sneak off into the lady's room and never come back trick, lol
I'd tell her that it's 8:30, I have to call my girlfriend.
I just got up and left the restaurant. Her chin was on the table. Oh well.
Say that I think this isn't a good match and wish her the best.
I straight told her this isn’t working. And walked out. She was complaining about her ex.
I’ve just had to ride it out unfortunately. I’ve never been that rude enough to just ditch someone
Yup, two words will always get you out of a bad date:
"Check, please".
If I wasn’t interested, wouldn’t waste my time going out with her to start with.
Be honest, openly admit that it isn't working, and then politely leave.
I got up and walked out
I rang my parents
I want to go home
