help me find a realistic excuse

so basically my prom is next friday and me and two other girls had planned to get our nails done together at the same place (the place is owned by a family friend of one of the girls), but i find that the prices are outrageous and the quality of the nails aren’t great. how can i tell them i’m not able to go, even though i’m going to get my nails done somewhere else ?

An extended family member’s birthday meal usually works for me.

tysm honestly that helps i’m just worried that they’ll suggest a different day 🥲

No problem, if all else fails you could always “come down with a cold” and be really considerate about not wanting to infect them!

that’s true!! when i see them at prom i’ll have to tell them that i got over it quickly though, but it sounds believable enough ☺️

im sorry but this is too funny to read lmao

What about your mum booked you an appointment as a surprise as a reward for working hard in your exams?

omg maybe, that’s actually pretty believable but i’m not sure if it would mean that id have to cancel with my friends on the day itself ? wont that look bad ?

Just say someone else is going to do them for you now? Maybe your mum or jus straight up say it’s too expensive😭

You could say that she just told you about the surprise appointment, that way you can still give them notice!

Tell them now she's booked it

Obviously your mum needs to know so she doesn't drop you in it

ye i guess, a sudden change of plan or smth, then they can’t try and change the day or anything

umm r u serious, just say ur auntie or someone wants to practice doing nails and shes gonna do ur nails as a test

Yeah I think just say that ur mum already booked you one as a suprise and u didn’t know that’s pretty believable tbf

fair enough hahaha everyone has to start somewhere i guess, will be a bit embarrassing for my friends if my nails end up looking better than theirs though 🤭

ur aunt is just that girl
