This is brilliant! It's so simple but I never would've thought of it myself.
Thank you everyone for all of your advice! I have decided to use the super vague approach for now

and if that doesn't work and/or I start getting a lot of questions about why I never want to go out anymore, I'll consider opening up to one or two people in my group of friends that I do trust and hopefully they can help cover for me if I need them to.
Thanks again for the help!

It's so nice to feel so welcomed here even with my very first post.
