How To Get Rid of a Bad Date

Have you ever wondered how to get rid of a bad date? Well you have came to the right place; I will tell you of my bad experience and give you step-by-step instructions on how to get rid of a bad date.  Believe me, I know how it feels to go out on a date when you're looking forward to a night you will never forget and thinking about how exciting the night will be. Since this is a blind date, you have no idea what this guy looks like. Your girlfriend has told you everything in the book that you want to hear; you even have a clear picture in your mind that this is going to be Mr. Right. The day comes, and you see this really weird-looking guy stepping up to your doorstep. He's dressed in plaid pants and really thick glasses; here you are, 5'8", and he's a good 4'9" -- how outrageous!  You have no choice but to go out with him because you've already agreed to the date. So here it begins; you try hard to pretend you're interested and so excited to see him.  Maybe it won't be so bad -- maybe he's a really great guy.

Nope!  On the way to the restaurant, he spends the entire time talking about how smart/rich/well-read he is and doesn't let you get a word in edgewise; he talks about his ex-girlfriend and how much he hopes she's miserable without him; he goes on at length about how he thinks a woman's place is in the kitchen and 'one other room, get it?'; and he goes on to say that if you play your cards right he may show you what he means at the end of the night.  Okay, this is officially a bad date. How do you get out of it? 

One way to get rid of a bad date is to wait until you get to the restaurant; then, ask him how much money he has and tell him you are totally broke.  Invent some horrible tale of financial woe, and spend the entire evening talking about how much you wish you had some cash.  Behaving like a shameless gold digger will turn most men off immediately.  If he still seems interested, then we must go to the next plan: midway through dinner, take out a book to read and stop interacting with him completely.  If he tries to keep the conversation going you can set your book down with some impatience and look right through him until he's finished.  When he's done talking, start up your own monologue about someone who's irritated you...make something up if you have to; the point is to use a number of curse words and to raise your voice from time to time until at least a few other patrons look in your direction.  Hopefully he'll think you're a crazy woman without an ounce of class.  Then, after you have both finished eating, lick your plate until it's clean and make sure you offer to lick his. After trying out all of these tricks you definitely will find yourself going home alone and looking for a taxi to get home. Of course, if you are planning to go on a blind date you can avoid all of this drama by doing a little research first; it's always better to be safe than sorry.
