We all get invited on dates we don't want to go on sometimes. Even a friend-date can feel intimidating and unnecessary from time to time. So what are we supposed to do? Sure we can say we have a significant other already but then you have to create a whole fake Instagram for them and get a decent amount of follow backs and it can get really messy really quick. Luckily Regina Roz, AKA the serial dater, provided her best list of excuses for any occasion on Quora. Enjoy!

    Rectangle - Regina Roz, Serial Dater dating again. Still trying to use my powers for good. Well I want to say "be honest and upfront with him so you don't waste each other's time" but l've been guilty of this in the past. Still am, if I'm being honest. These are a few that I've been guilty of, though some are just thrown in for the silliness of it.

    This is surely not Regina Roz's first rodeo. As the self-proclaimed 'Serial Dater' it is her duty to provide as much advice as she can to help the public get through the uncomfortable phenomenon that is dating. Sometimes you're single and ready to mingle... but just not with the people who are going after you.

    Rectangle - I'm sorry, I have a family emergency.

    This one is used quite often. It's useful because if you say it, and then someone asks you, "OMG what happened?" You can always respond with, "I'm so sorry, but I'm just not ready to talk about it yet." And the conversation will have to end there. Personally, I don't love using this one, because I think it can jinx your luck. Sorry, I'm superstitious.

    Font - I'm not that kind of girl to just go out without knowing someone. (Usually their response would be "Oh yeah, that's cool. I respect that" Then proceeds to try and get to know me without forcing me to go out with them as more than a friend.)
