I was invited to a large party that takes place this weekend. I said that I'd go, because of the occasion and the person who is throwing it, but I really do not want to stay for a long time. First of all, I am not much of a party person. I usually just sit there by myself while being bored out of my mind. Second of all, I'm not much of a people person. There are going to be a LOT of people there. I really don't want to have to be around that many people for too long, especially since I hate most of them. Normally I leave parties with the excuse of not feeling well or something like that, but certain people (although not everyone) are starting to catch on. I need some good excuses to leave a party that do not involve being sick. (link)

Yeah I hear ya on this. Being in a small room with a bunch of people you hate is never fun. A good excuse is that you're supposed to babysit at, say 9. That way it's only an hour you have to stay and you'll only be there at the start when people still haven't all arrived.
If not babysitting then just make sure it fits the following criteria:
-A prior engagement you tell the host(ess) about before the party so it doesn't look so fake
-Something going on that evening. That way people won't try to persuade you to stay later as they might if you said you had to get up early next day.
So relatives coming over or a shift at a work if you have a job work too.
Funny but if you know you only have to be there an hour you'll probably end up having more fun thn you usually would.
