HOW TO CANCEL ON YOUR FRIENDS...
We all want to hang out with our friends, but sometimes you have a change of plans at the last minute... and sometimes THEIR plans are just lame. Luckily for you, there are ways to cancel on your friends without hurting their feelings.

1) HAVE A SYMPATHETIC EXCUSE. If you're bailing on your friends for a better offer... like a hot date, they might think you're ditching them... Instead, tell them there's a last minute family or work situation you have to attend to.

2) CANCEL VIA TEXT. Texting allows you to avoid the inevitable follow-up questions from your friends, and gives your message a sense of urgency, making your excuse more believable.

3) IGNORE THE RESPONSE. If your friends text or call back, don't respond... You may feel like a jerk, but it's the best way to keep your excuse believable.

4) HAVE MAKE-UP PLANS. Come up with more interesting plans for the next weekend or a few days down the road... This way your friends won't feel like they're getting the short end of the stick.
