\"\"<\/p>\n

You’re at a party and start chatting with another guest.<\/p>\n

Twenty minutes later, you\u2019re still talking with them one-on-one. You feel trapped, and you wish you knew how to break away from the conversation.<\/p>\n

Maybe the person is annoying, and you\u2019d like to escape their tedious orbit.<\/p>\n

But you also might be talking with a friend and are very much enjoying the interaction. It\u2019s just that you want to catch up with some of the other guests, too. He or she might feel the same way, actually, but neither of you wants to risk seeming rude in ending the exchange.<\/p>\n

So how do you navigate this situation? You ideally don\u2019t want to break things off abruptly and leave the person awkwardly standing there on their own.<\/p>\n

Here are some options from social and etiquette experts for politely bowing out of a conversation:<\/p>\n

Option #1: Introduce the person to someone else.<\/h3>\n

In my AoM podcast interview with etiquette expert William Hanson<\/a>, he said that his go-to strategy is to try to pair your conversational partner off with someone else. He described how this would go:<\/p>\n

\u2018<\/em>Brett, it\u2019s been so lovely talking to you. I\u2019ve just seen someone over there I\u2019ve got to go and get and speak to before they leave. Have you met Susan, however?\u2019<\/p>\n

And I\u2019ve sort of seen Susan floating around and I grab her as she comes past and go: \u2018Susan, may I introduce Brett? Brett has just flown in from Sydney. And Susan, I believe your mother is from Australia. I\u2019ll leave you two talking.\u2019<\/p>\n

And off you go.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Basically, introduce the person to someone else, giving both people a bit of context \u2014 a conversation starter \u2014 to kick off the new interaction before you slip away.<\/p>\n

If someone you can introduce the person to doesn\u2019t happen to pass by, you can actively lead them over to a new conversation partner: \u201cMy friend Rob is also in the cyber security field. I want you to meet him; I think you\u2019d enjoy talking shop.\u201d<\/p>\n

The strategy of introducing your current conversation partner to someone else is a good one if you think the former and the latter will actually get on. However, if you’ve found the person you\u2019ve been talking to a bore, it would, of course, not be very generous to pawn them off on a friend. It is well that Jeanne Martinet, author of The Art of Mingling<\/a><\/em>, calls this technique \u201cthe human sacrifice.” If it\u2019s not a situation where you want to throw an unwitting victim to the gum-flapping wolves, try one of the other options on this list.<\/p>\n

Option #2: Use the buffet bye-bye.<\/h3>\n

When I talked to Martinet on the podcast<\/a>, she noted that one of the most common categories of conversational exit is what she calls \u201cthe buffet bye-bye and other excuses.\u201d That\u2019s where you say something like, \u201cI\u2019m going to go grab a drink\/some food. It\u2019s been nice talking to you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Martinet says that this option can be effective, but carries a risk: the person may follow you to the bar\/buffet line. So the excuse she recommends instead is to step away by saying you have to make a phone call:<\/p>\n

Even in today\u2019s age of smartphones, everyone knows that if you\u2019re at a party you can\u2019t just whip out your phone right there, so they know you have to go off by yourself. Then you actually have to go off and look like you\u2019re making a phone call for a second, then go to another group.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

You can also excuse yourself to use the restroom, though this one tends to read more nakedly as a way to make an escape.<\/p>\n

Option #3: Say there\u2019s someone you\u2019re supposed to meet.<\/h3>\n

Another strategy Martinet shared goes like this:<\/p>\n

You find a pause hopefully to interrupt, and you say, \u2018I\u2019m so sorry, but someone just walked in the room that I\u2019m supposed to talk to because my boss made me or my girlfriend said I had to,\u2019 or some excuse like that. So it\u2019s like you have a mission, and you\u2019re so sorry but you have to go.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Martinet calls this technique the “counterfeit search,\u201d as you may only be pretending that there\u2019s someone else at the party you\u2019re supposed to meet (though that may legitimately be the case as well). <\/p>\n

Your willingness to use strategies like the counterfeit search \u2014 or the phone call excuse from option 2 \u2014 will, of course, depend on how comfortable you are with telling a white lie in the name of social grace.<\/p>\n

Option #4: Be self-deprecating.<\/h3>\n

Hanson says you shouldn\u2019t leave someone on their own unless you truly do need to break away to do something like catch a plane. In that circumstance, he recommends making your exit on the back of some self-deprecating pretense:<\/p>\n

You can make it sound like you<\/em> are the bore. So I would say something like:<\/p>\n

\u2018Well, Brett, look, I know I\u2019ve monopolized so much of your time this evening, and I know there are lots of other people you want to go and talk to. But maybe we\u2019ll see each other in a few weeks\u2019 time at that fundraiser.\u2019<\/p>\n

Shake hands and off we go.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Acting a little apologetic for having taken up someone\u2019s time is a graceful way to exit without causing offense.<\/p>\n

Option #5: Travel together to a new group.<\/h3>\n

In a situation where you are enjoying talking with someone, and just want to be able to mingle with some other people as well, you can simply say something like, \u201cI\u2019m going to go sit down near Mike. Come with me.\u201d Now you can talk to your current conversation partner and<\/em> Mike as well. Or the person, who has also been waiting for an excuse to break away from you, will tell you that they\u2019re going to go hit the buffet instead. This strategy works best when the person you\u2019re talking with, and the person you\u2019re going to go join, are mutual friends.<\/p>\n

In addition to these options, a couple of other easy lines to use are, \u201cYou know, I\u2019d better check in with the host before the night is through,\u201d (a natural, legitimate reason), and \u201cWell, I won\u2019t keep you any longer \u2014 I\u2019m sure you\u2019ve got lots of folks to say hi to\u201d (makes your exit seem complimentary to the other person).<\/p>\n

Parties are for mingling. So rather than getting locked into talking to the same person for the whole night, use one of these strategies to set yourself free to enjoy both the full buffet of food, and of sociality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
