How can you politely end a boring conversation you don’t care about?

[Kayla45]

Make an excuse

Walk away without saying anything

Pretend to be interested but switch topics and act excited over the new topic

[TrueConfection]

On the phone? In person? Text?

In person I politely listen and just don’t add to their input. When the awkward silence comes, I thank them for whatever I can think of and tell them how great it was to chat. Bye!

usually i just say something like 'oh i need to use the bathroom' or something

[AubrieMorman]

I slowly just start making more boring responses eventually they get the hint

[FreyaRed]

Derailing, deflecting and changing topic.

I usually fake an amputation.
