| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 5:31:54 PM | | Don't you do dare tell her the truth! You don't want a woman to think she is versus your football. All the ladies here are telling you not to lie because they hate being lied to or whatever... but how many of them want to hear that some footie is better than their company?? Tell her an emergency came up and you have to have to have to cancel... and this way you are not lying either... and as she is an ex, you owe her no interrogation.. I mean explanation. | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 5:43:19 PM | Seeing Farve play with the Jets would be a good enough excuse in my book...
You're alright in my books....
And wiz; some ladies paint their nails, do their makeup and perhaps, waxes their lip fuzz while the game is on...now pass me a beer, would ya?

PS: I just missed Jason Bay score cos I was posting this!!!

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 5:47:39 PM | | How about just telling her you changed your mind...I have said yes to invitations before and then later changed my mind...You really dont need an excuse...Just let her know you wont be going with her...It is your life, after all...Pretty simple if you ask me. | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 5:58:46 PM | A couple of posters have commented that your commitment to football games may have been the reason you're now "exes." In my opinion, that's irrelevant to the question posted. However ...
Reach down the front of your pants. There should be a bag dangling down between your legs with a couple firm, oval shaped, sensitive lumps in that sack. If there is nothing there, check your last girlfriend's purse, your balls may be in there at the bottom with the lint and Extra gum .
... I find this answer hilarious! And, I'm not a sports fan, so I'm not defending it on that basis.
Hey, everyone makes mistakes. You inadvertently overcommitted yourself. The kindest thing to do is to let her know you've re-evaluated your preferences and have decided to take in the game. Apologize graciously, explain, and she should be able to find someone else to go to the wedding with her. Orrrrrr, go alone. It happens. | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:00:17 PM |
Let me just add that she is actually dating other people. I don't know why she hasn't ask them. She always calls me with her guy problems, which is quite sad.
Geezus, man!
She thinks you are one of her GIRLFRIENDS, for gawd's sake. If she's dating other guys, tell her to take one of those guys.
Do you even KNOW the people getting married? If not, WHY would you go? Why go somewhere you don't know anyone while your EX girlfriend abandons you to darling Uncle Albert and Auntie Mary while she goes and parties with her friends???!!!
Go watch the game! You owe her NOTHING!
Yikes.... | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:00:31 PM | IMO, you did the right thing by telling her so now you can confirm that she needs to get another date to go to the wedding. You said you're planning on telling her Wednesday so I'm assuming it's because you'll be busy until then right?
If she sent you an invite by text, why not send her your regrets by text and be done with it? | |
|
| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:00:36 PM | She's your EX, so tell her the truth. Whats she gonna do, break up with you again?
Look sweetheart, I know I said I would go, but there is a game on that same night and football on t.v. is way more important to me then going to a wedding with you!
Besides, I've seen you dressed up before and it's not much of a reward for missing my game ya know.... Yes guys running around in tights is way more meaningful to me at this point in my life then spending one evening with you and a lot of other beautiful single women! | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:05:27 PM | | Anybody in here want to go with her? She's a very pretty girl, nice body, nice everything, but very stuck on herself....Oh by the way, she'll talk ear off, guaranteed. | |

Yeeeeeeeeeha!

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:10:26 PM | | Forget excuses and find some balls, do her a favour make it clear that you were telling her the truth, it wasn't just a joke, she's you're ex, you obviously prefer the game to her and she should expect you to be yourself, maybe that's why you are ex's you obviously don't have feeling for her but you need to learn to make it clear to her she can't come running to you, unless of course you need her to do that cos in spite of what you say you can't let go and neither can she, sort it out and end it properly! | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:14:20 PM | Exactly, since she is his ex, tell her the truth. She will need the time to find someone else, if he say's there is an emergency she still is going to want a reason. TELL HER THE TRUTH...... | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:20:11 PM | | Bull S---, Man up & go to the wedding. A game over someones feelings My A-- ! Unless you are in the game, no excuses, be a man. There will be a lot of other games to watch. Why take a chance on hurting someones feelings. | |
|
| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:24:04 PM | | I agree with #15 totally.... tape the damn game, and get a life.... this involves lots of women who are getting drunk, dancing and feeling romantic. Weddings are the best place in the world to find a lady. You can't tape that while the game is on! Personally I would love to take your place there. I may even go crash some weddings for the opportunity to get what you are missing! At least a lot of the women who are attending weddings know what commitment is! | |
|
| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:33:13 PM | I agree, GROW A SET. And tell her NOW! Why the &V<# are you waiting until Wednesday?
Try putting yourself in her shoes. She still thinks you are a decent guy apparently. So, prove her right by being a man and telling her the truth, or, try a little EMPATHY. Personally, I believe that organized sports suck. It's a bunch of spoiled people getting paid a phenomenal amount of money who have egos the size of Neptune who behave badly.
If a freaking GAME is more important than a woman's feeling, then TELL HER. Today, so she can make other plans. But don't be a nutless wimp who has to lie about it. Own up to whatever you believe in, ignore anything you don't like here, and be your own person. Sheesh... | |

| I need an excuse to get out of it.... Posted: 9/1/2008 6:33:16 PM | You made a commmittment. Honoring it would be the right thing to do. There will always be another football game.
However, if you are hell bent on watching the game..........tell her. I'm sure if you do that she will say........".of course watch your game..........now I remember why we are ex's".. Problem solved.........You watch the game,......the ex is forever out of your life......
Now some people could made a committent and break it and really enjoy that game.......others would be feeling guilty the whole time their watching it. It doesnt matter if shes an ex........the point being you made THE committment. Saying she has broken plans with you doesnt excuse YOUR bad behavior.
REPEAT AFTER ME...........On the 14th I will NOT ENJOY the game.......repeat that to yourself every night for the next two weeks before bedtime
When someone needs an excuse they know they are wrong.
PEACE | |

To the ones that are posting insults towards me....You have never changed your mind about a situation and lied about it? You're going straight to heaven because you have been soooo honest to everybody in your life.
Ummm? We are not the ones on the internet scheming and plotting how to dodge an X
You could just be a man and keep the commitment and catch the game next year.
I'm just sayin is all.

Have you been around really drunk women? Sure the romantic part's great, but they tend to pass out before Tab A gets inserted into Slot B.
Even WAY before you even get close to THAT point, there is all that screeching and falling down and crying and stuff that goes on... after a while they look like live, poofy Pinatas with makeup all over their faces running around trying to pick up the 15 year old usher with the nice ass....
... gimme the football game any day.....
