How can I say I confused the dates...?
Hi guys!

So here's the deal: Last Friday I went to a theater to watch a musical play, but when I arrived there I realized that my ticket was to next Friday. I got confused.

Is it OK to say "I got confused" or "I confused the dates"? Or even "I was confused about the date"?

Thank you in advance.

Answer

I would say, 'I mixed up the dates', or 'I got the dates mixed up'.
As Ella mentioned, 'I got the dates confused'/'I must've confused the dates' is good too.

Answer

Thank you girls!

Answer

Hi Renata :)

All of the options you wrote would be fine.

But, in my opinion, the most natural way would probably be "I must've confused the dates" - (using a past modal of deduction)

I hope this helps!

Answer

I confused the dates.

Alternatively, you could say ,  "I mixed up the dates."
