Your neighbor doesn't appear to want to leave after dropping by for a chat, but you need to go to school. What are at least three ways to politely end the conversation?

What will be an ideal response?

You might try summarizing the conversation, end with a compliment or
positive statement, make future plans, or use an exit line. Nonverbal behaviors used to
conclude a conversation may include decreasing eye contact, positioning your body to
face an exit, looking at the clock or watch, grabbing your backpack for class, or placing
both hands on top of your thighs if seated.
