exuses to not go swimming

say you have a bad skin condition and it will get worse if you go in that kind of water

allergic to chlorine… it makes your eyes hurt and your skin itch

You could use the period excuse if no one else knows you’ve already had it. Other than that you could say you that your sick with an upset stomach, or that you have a cut and you don’t want pool water in it. You could make a fake cut look real very eaisly… or you could fake another injury sprained ankle, etc…. If you like those ideas, I can teach you how to make your injury look real.

wow nice, you know all those ways work, but the only way to get better is to go. have fun and joke around well “making a fool of yourself” and you will have a good time. everyone is bad at something, and trying not to improve is what gives people the bad impression

say that you have a sprained ankle, and get a wrap thing and put it on there… or you could say that you are allergic to chlorine and that you get all itchy and stuffy and your eyes puff up… thats what happens when I smell oranges… uhm… say that you have a rash/cut that burns when it is in chlorine, the teachers will tell you its cleaning it, and then you say that you still dont feel comfortable swimming with the injury…have your mom/dad/guardian write a note saying you dont have to swim because -then enter excuse-… or forge one. good luck

just give it a go you shouldnt be embarassed about learning to swim, everyone who can swim had to learn how to do it at some point plus the people in your class wont be important once you finish school and there out of your life I cant swim myself and I wish I spent more time learing rather than worried about how stupid id look now im trying to learn and its a lot harder when your older
