never had, but you can prepare some good excuses in case you want to leave fast. Another approach might be looking at it as a new friend you are going to meet, not a possible girlfriend, then you won't have all that pressure on it.

I've had some pretty bad ones. 20 stone monsters etc.
There's no good exit plan, she'll know if you're trying to get out of it - the only way round it is to pre-arrange to meet her for a quick coffee in the daytime, at lunch hour for example, or before you're off to do something else. Then you can decline the full date if necessary.
Sounds like it's too late for that.
You never know, she might be fit. If not, just keep drinking until she is.

A) hope your venue is a toilet (to accomodate the s***ting self thing)
B) Check out exit signs as you enter the building (if you need to make a quick one)
C) Accept that she is feeling the same and just hope for the best, you never know you might meet a good person....and maybe enjoy yourself..!! If you don't you'll have a good story to tell your future life partner!!

Be honest about how you feel about the way the date is going be polite and don't put her down, Be yourself and have fun. She is a human after all and she may not like u. If she really is that bad the person who set u up isn't a friend, but she made need one.

When I used to do the blind dating thing I would always schedule lunch during the work day so that I would only have an hour to spend with the person.
It isn't hard to be nice to a person that you aren't attracted to, is it?

I went on one years ago, it was fun! The guy i met wasn't my type but he was nice all the same.
It doesn't matter what you think of her, if you really think about it, it's only for the one night, not for a life time...just enjoy yourself and have fun, the night is how you make it!.....If you find you don't like her at the end (or even the start) no one is forcing you to see her again..

I married my blind date! I was 16 he was 21 when we first met. We've been married now for nearly 28 years and happily too! So you never know....I would say, don't go on first impressions...get to know them a bit!
Have a great time! This COULD be the one!

Ive had one, but I did it cuz it was my friend's brother and I felt I couldn't say no! You should surely have some idea of what she looks like by whoever set it up. But, if she isn't what u expect, you should still continue with the date out of respect and to give her a chance. However, if you aren't attracted to her, just be honest if she asks, and just tell her that you didn't get that spark.

Don't look at it as a date as such but meeting a new friend.You'll
both get times when you want to say something,for the sake of
speaking.Don't.When she (assuming it's she)speaks listen.If she
interrupts you when you speak.Well you have to decide if she's nervous or bossy.Nothing to lose so enjoy.
