How to tactfully say no say to dating requests

Advice please

Edit: I realized elsewhere that this is a job for a first class wingman. If your under 30, attractive, bench at least 305, and work/play in the north LA area, please PM me.

 

I have zero faith OP has ever had this conundrum.

"For I am a sinner in the hands of an angry God. Bloody Mary full of vodka, blessed are you among cocktails. Pray for me now and at the hour of my death, which I hope is soon. Amen."
 

"Look you're fun and really nice but it would be unfair of me to lead you on by accepting your invitation."

Rarely will any of my posts have enough forethought/structure to be taken seriously.
 

"No thanks".

If they persist, the conversation goes like this: Them: No really, let's get a drink sometime Me: When did you have in mind? Them: Friday at 9PM? Me: That's when I'm meeting my girlfriend. So no. Go away.

Only acceptable reply at that point is "Are you open to a threesome?"

...and I'm not even going to lie, women aren't beating down my door, let alone in groups.

Get busy living

I have to return some video tapes.

Good one. I have found whole threads devoted to Batemanisms, and these are not just WSO threads. Just don't try the Duck Tape one. :-o
