Things You'll Need:
-
Step 1
Turn off all sound on your phone. This includes ring tones, text message alerts, alarm clocks and appointment notifications. You can still answer an incoming cell phone call, since most cell phones have a vibrate option. Because of this, you can just pretend to notice that your cell phone is vibrating.
-
Step 2
Have several different practiced fake conversations ready. Many people use a fake cell phone call as an excuse to leave the company of someone they don't wish to talk with. Therefore, a fake conversation with someone who urgently needs your help can be very helpful.
-
Step 3
Respect the person you want to avoid. Nod your head toward them and mouth the word "Sorry." Make a facial expression that communicates you really wish you could talk to them instead, but you just have too much to do. Quickly make your escape.
-
Step 4
Address the pretend person on the other end of the line if it is necessary. For example, many women use the fake phone call when they feel though could be in danger, such as a dark parking lot. In this case, address the person in such a way you make it obvious you are speaking with a man. Referring to them as "Honey" or "Dad" are some options.
-
Step 5
Arrange for a computer to dial your phone at a certain time if you know you will be in a situation later you will want to leave. A few websites offer this service.
