Has anyone ever seen the 2003 romantic comedy, How to Lose a Guy in 10 days? It is a cute, fun movie, starring Kate Hudson & Matthew McConaughey. I enjoyed the film when I first saw it, but I had one question at the end – does it really take 10 days to lose a guy? I am pretty sure I could lose someone in 10 minutes, if I put my mind to it.
Gather around and listen (read) closely! There are two situations where the information that I am about to impart could be invaluable to you:
Scenario no. 1: Your mother/ grandmother/ Aunty fixes you up on a blind date with some random dude. After spending 15 minutes in his company, you realize that he is as boring as sliced bread, and want to ditch him immediately. But you don’t want to be too obvious about ditching him, because then your mother/ grandmother/ Aunty might get offended. So here’s how you let him down easy.
Scenario no. 2: You meet a guy you really like, and you want to make sure that he’s attracted to you too. Then don’t make any of these mistakes when he’s around.
Without further ado, let me present the ways in which you can lose a guy in 10 minutes:
Pull a Salman Khan
Remember when Ash dumped Sallu back in the day, and he called her 75 times in one night? I want you to give a performance that rivals his. Call your boyfriend incessantly to talk about boring, mundane things, and if he doesn’t answer your call even once, then leave nagging messages on his voicemail.
I guarantee that he will change his number sooner rather than later to stop you from contacting him, and you won’t have to worry about him ever again.

Pull a Ajay Devgn
You know the way Ajay Devgn always looks? Like it’s been a century since he has had a bath or a shave? That is the look I want you to emulate.
Don’t bother taking a bath more than once in a week, and when you two go out for a date, wear ratty old pyjamas, no deodorant & don’t comb your hair. In short, do everything possible to look like a hobo.
He will get the message sooner or later and dump you.
Pull a Manyata Dutt
You know the way Manyata Dutt married a man old enough to be her father so she could her hands on his money? That is what I want you to act like – a gold digger.
No one likes to date someone who’s is interested only in their money. So keep asking your guy about how much money he has in his bank account, and ask him to take you shopping. Make it clear that you find his wallet more interesting than you find him.
Can you think of any other cool ways to lose a guy in 10 minutes? If you can, then share!
