He'll hopefully get the hint (if he hasn't already) with an easy, "It was nice to meet you," as you head in a different direction. What not to do Don't keep chatting or scoring drinks off him if you'd rather not give him your number.  Also, don't lie and say you have a boyfriend if you don't -- especially if you plan on chit-chatting or dancing with the next guy. Lier also tells us not to give him anything more than casual eye contact. "Don't casually touch him -- guys interpret that as you want more," he says.
