Vomit Politely

Let's say you're on a date, but you have to vomit, or barf in other terms. It can be gross to watch and unpleasant to do! Here's how to do it politely.

Steps

 * 1)  When you have to vomit, say you have to use the restroom, and go vomit in the toilet. Then flush the toilet and wipe your mouth. If there is a water fountain nearby, you would probably want to get a drink.
 * 2)  If no restroom is available, ask to be excused. Then, leave to find a bush, tree, rock or anything big that you can hide behind.
 * 3)  If you have advance warning, remove your shirt/dress to avoid a vomit spill mark. The embarrassment of being seen without covering is less than having a "vomit vee" down your front.
 * 4)  When you are done, wipe your mouth with tissues. If you have none, an UNUSED sanitary pad would work.
 * 5)  If you have water, swish some in your mouth then spit it in an inconspicuous place.
 * 6)  Try to use a breath mint, because the acid from vomit can reek.
 * 7)  If your date asks what happened, say you had to take a moment or make a phone call, then change the subject.
 * 8) If you need to vomit take a napkin and cover your mouth and vomit. If it sinks through say excuse me and escape to a restroom. If your friend follows you run into a stall and begin vomiting freely.

Tips

 * Try to carry tissues in your purse to wipe your mouth if you have to.
 * If vomit gets on your shirt it can be gross, so LEAN OVER FAR when vomiting.
 * If you lean too far, vomit can exit from your nose.
 * Put your hair up or have a friend hold it back.
 * If you feel you are going to vomit at that SPLIT second while talking to someone, just run out of the room, then make up an excuse or come clean and tell them.
 * Tell the person you're with that you need to vomit. Even though it is embarrassing and gross, it's not nearly as bad as vomiting on your friends.
 * Try not to vomit in a restaurant unless there's a restroom. Leave and go vomit outside, and try not to let other people see you.
 * If you're sick on a ride most of these tips won't help much. You can try to yell "Stop the ride!" and hopefully there's a nearby trash can for you to vomit in.
 * To avoid getting vomit on your clothes or shoes, try vomiting over a brick wall of appropriate height.
 * If all else fails, just laugh it off.

Warnings

 * Try not to vomit in a sink. It might clog it.
 * If you find yourself vomiting on a regular basis, you might have health issues that need medical attention. It is possible you suffer from an eating disorder that deserves prompt medical attention.
 * If you are in a moving vehicle, DO NOT just open the door when you need to vomit... It is a bad idea, and potentially dangerous. Get the driver to pull over (you shouldn't be behind the wheel) and then when safe, open the door. Also, Never vomit inside a motorcyle helmet either - really not cool... Especially if it's not yours. Dangerous too.
 * Don't try to hold it in your mouth. This can cause more and more vomiting.
