have another appointment if someone asks you out for a specific day this is a way

of saying you won't be available you already have plans then sorry I already

have another appointment oh I have to work late today oh I have to work late

today this is a reasonable way to get out of going on a date you don't want to

go on it's a way of saying you have too much to do at work you won't have time

for anything else in the evening because you have to work late oh I'm late for

class sorry I can't oh I'm late for class sorry I can't this is something

you would say if you were in school at university you're saying that you are

running late for a class you have to get to your class your lecture it's a way of

getting away from someone it means you're on a tight schedule

oh sorry I'm running late for class I can't I'll be studying for finals I'll

be studying for finals finals our final exams that come at the end of a school

year this is a good thing to say if you're in school because it shows that

you care about your grades you have too much studying to do to be going on dates

with anyone it's a very valid reason to stay in if you care about your grades

you have too much studying to do to be going out on dates that's not

important what's important is studying oh I just made plans to go out with the

girls tonight sorry oh I just made plans to go out with the girls tonight

sorry this is a way of saying you've already made plans with your group of

friends it means you can't do anything else that night because you're already

hanging out with your girlfriends or if you're a guy you could say you're going

out with the guys you already have plans so sorry you don't have time for a date

I've got to check my schedule can I get back to you later I've got to check my

schedule can I get back to you later this is a way of buying yourself some

time it means you're not sure if you're available so you need to double-check

your schedule your calendar wherever you put down the things that you have to do

your obligations if you're stinky this is an easy way to buy yourself some time

to make other plans so that you can get back to the person who asks you on the

date and say actually I checked my schedule I have something that day I'm

busy that day I'm sorry I already have a boyfriend or a girlfriend I'm sorry I

already have a boyfriend this is a very very common way of rejecting people a

lot of times at a bar if someone comes up to you sorry I already have a

boyfriend it means that you already have a significant other in your life and

you're not looking for anything romantic with anyone else it shows you're not

available so they should turn their sights elsewhere I'm not really

interested in seeing anyone right now I'm not really interested in seeing

anyone right now this is a very direct way of telling someone that you're not

looking for anything romantic with anyone it means you're happy to be

single to be on your own not caught up in any romantic entanglements you're

saying I'm actually not interested in what you're interested if that person is

coming up to you and trying to get something started romantically asking

you out on a date you're saying actually I'm not interested in anything romantic

in my life right now I'm sorry I just don't like you in that way I'm

I just don't like you in that way this is a very direct way of rejecting

someone sometimes it's so direct that it actually hurts someone else's feelings

you're telling them you don't see them in a romantic way at all you're not

attracted to them romantically to say I don't see you in that way it means I

don't see you in a romantic way at all I just want to be friends I just want to

be friends this is a very very very common way to reject someone I know I've

used it it means that you have a friend who may start having feelings for you

and they ask you if you want to do something romantic maybe go on a date or

something and this is how you say our friendship means so much to me and I

don't want to risk it I just want to be friends I don't want to be anything more

than friends I don't want to be dating I just want to be pals that brings us to
