  Literally all you have to do is say "Hey I'm gonna head out, nice to see everyone!"
  People who are passive like OP piss me off.

  For many people, shitting while standing is a problem. >
  
  You would like my family. We never really did the formal thing. >
  
  everyone stays at the table? My extended family just wander everywhere unless they're drinking. >
  
  Same, but I have been to dinner where everyone sits. >
  
  Why do so many people on Reddit have problems setting boundaries? Just get the fuck up, no one is going to physically stop you. >
  
  Seriously. 
  I'm a 28 year old adult.  I have a job.  I own a home.  I have a life and hobbies. 
  No one is going to "force" me to sit at the table after I'm done.  I'm not a child. 
  I know staying to chat is a social norm and a societal thing, but anyone who's ever been around me knows it isn't my thing. 
  I've never even had someone bad an eye when I've gotten up from the table to get some space. 
  On the rare occasion, I've had someone who doesn't know ask if I was okay, but it was out of concern, because getting up and leaving like that isn't normal, but I get that and I appreciate the misplaced concern.
