How to make a reasonable excuse to miss a date
Explain the feelings that are preventing you from coming.
If you are trying to make an excuse, you must have a reason. If it's a reason the person you are supposed to meet will understand, offer it.
If your reason is about you, it might not offend. If you are too tired, too sick, too overworked, or too depressed to meet up, say so.
