How do I cancel a 'date'?

[Deja Q]

It's not as much a date as it is a "pickup" board.

Just can't go through with it.

1. i just did this

lie

someone died, health issues, an ex-wife... be creative

3. NEVER, EVER do the someone Died thingy....It could bring about

someone's death. :scared:

*** I never play the sick kid thing because I'm paranoid that it'll make one of them sick. I'm crazy that way. Bet you didn't know that. :hi:

6. well then use a relative who's already dead

like in high school my homework was late & i said my grandmother died...

well, she did... just 3 years previously... i was just getting around to grieving that week

7. My father got out of a speeding ticket that way once. He told the cop

he had lost his job...which he had, a year and a half before. :hi:

2. Just tell them you changed your mind.

I'm sure it happens all the time, so no big deal.

4. repeat after me:

"I had a really hard day at work and I don't think I'd be fit company tonight." Repeat as needed.

The nice thing is you've been complaining about work a lot lately, so it's probably at least a little bit true.

5. Sorry something's come up and I won't be able to make it.
