Download Article
Whether you live with super strict parents, just got grounded, or are looking for a bit of a break from your partner or roommate, we’ve all had times where we needed to bend the truth a bit so we could get some time away from the house. We’re here to give you a list of some solid excuses you can use to get out of the house for a few minutes, hours, or even days!
Things You Should Know
- Blame your need to go out on having to go get something you lost or left someplace else.
- Say that you have a very important team project that needs to be completed or are studying for a big test.
- Disguise your going out as doing chores or other volunteer work.
- Cite another pre-planned event, such as dinner or a party, as the reason you have to leave.
Steps
-
1Put the blame on an unavoidable work event. Work dinners, charity events, team building activities, and meetings are common occurrences in any working person’s life, and they’re quite notorious for being hard to get out of. Try and look especially glum when bringing it up so as not to raise suspicions about any other plans you might have. Cite error: Closing
