You talk to them for a little while and once you&#8217;ve realised you don&#8217;t want to carry on then they just won&#8217;t take the hint. So how do you break off the conversation without upsetting them?\u00a0 Here are my suggestions on how to avoid this:<\/p>\n<p>1) Just get up and go.\u00a0 It&#8217;s as easy as that.\u00a0 Explain that you would like to get a drink, want to catch up with a friend or simply that you want to speak to a variety of people. Tell them you really enjoyed talking to them and you&#8217;ll chat to them again later in the evening.<\/p>\n<p>2) Never accept a drink if you aren&#8217;t interested. If you do, you&#8217;ll be obliged to stay talking with them for the duration of your drink. It&#8217;s better to buy your own drinks and be free to mingle.<\/p>\n<p>3) If you are at a singles event, use a host to help. Tell them if someone won&#8217;t leave you alone and we&#8217;ll quickly introduce them to a more suitable match.<\/p>\n<p>4) Whatever happens, be polite. You never know who might be watching or who they might be able to connect you with. It&#8217;s fine to tell them you aren&#8217;t a good match, but do it respectfully and be as friendly as possible.<\/p>\n<p>5) Never dish out personal contact info to anyone you don&#8217;t intend to communicate with. It sounds pretty obvious but some people will still send over all their contact info ( or hand out a business card) to anyone and everyone. Don&#8217;t give anyone false hope that you will meet up with them again or you mind find they get frustrated and keep trying to get an explanation<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Happy dating!<\/p>\n<p>James Preece &#8211; the Dating Guru<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you ever find yourself stuck talking to people you&#8217;ve rather not?
