xiting a conversation is not hard. Saying
the words, ‘It was nice speaking with you.
Enjoy your evening’, could not be easier.

YOUR

What makes it hard is the extra emotion
we attach to these words. No need to add
this emotion; why do we assume we are
being rude / hurting the other person’s
feelings by ending the conversation? Most
likely, they are just as happy to move on
as well.

Exit Suggestions

Life is too short for boring conversations! You should never feel stuck.
If you’ve already tried switching the subject to something that you
find more interesting, and still no luck, then we need to find some
suggestions to ensure a graceful exit.
Remember our body language module? Well, use your new found
skills by slightly shifting your feet and shoulders away from the
person with whom you are in conversation, wait for a pause in the
conversation, give them a big smile, and then say, ‘It was nice
speaking with you’ and add one of the following:
“I just saw someone I need to speak with”
“Excuse me, I have to refill my drink”
“I have to see if there’s anything interesting at the buffet”
“I must check on my friend”
“I must go thank the host before I leave”
(keep it ambiguous, this doesn’t mean you are leaving *right now*)
