Leaving A Date Safely

When it comes to leaving a date where there is no obvious physical attraction and where you are incompatible or bored with the conversation, it’s important to be respectful and polite. The safest and easiest way to leave a date in this situation is to be honest and direct.

You can express your feelings in a kind and respectful way, saying something like “I’ve had a nice time getting to know you, but I don’t feel that we have a romantic connection, and I don’t think we’re compatible. I think it’s best if we don’t see each other again.” Another way to handle it is by saying something like “I’ve had a great time tonight, but I don’t think we’re a good match for each other. I wish you all the best in your search for a partner.”

It’s also important to make sure you’re in a safe place to leave. If you’re in a public place and feel comfortable, you can simply say goodnight and leave. If you’re in a more private location, you can make an excuse to leave, like having to work early the next day or needing to take care of a family member.

A date should always be a mutual and comfortable experience, and if you’re not feeling it, it’s best to be honest and end it, even if that’s mentally hard for you to do. It’s never easy, but it’s better to be upfront and respectful than to waste time and effort (for both of you) on something that is simply not working.

Life is short, you need to make the most of the dating time you have – and enhance your chances of love.
