"Take off", "head off", "leave". What else can be used to politely indicate that I am leaving [closed]

Solution 1:

There's nothing rude about the word "leave". What might be impolite about saying

I'm leaving now,

is not the word "leave", but the fact that you're leaving abruptly in the middle of something without apologizing for it. You could say

I'm really sorry, but I need to leave now,

or

I wish I could stick around, but I have to go,

or something similar.

You can be much, much ruder than "I'm leaving". For example,

I'm bored with this stupid game. I'm gonna cut and run.

Given that the answer to the question has nothing to do with the English language in particular, this probably belongs on Interpersonal.Stackexchange.
