How would say it was a pleasure with the context being you are it a conversation on a good note.

  1. Era un placer * I believe this to be the answer since present tense es un placer

  2. Fue un placer

  3. Es un placer * would you use this as long as we

Example

Brian: Hola!

Lisa: Hola Brian!

Lisa: Como estás

Brian: Estoy muy Bien

Lisa; discupleme voy a ir!

Brian: Bueno, mucho gusto

Lisa: " ... un placer"

I usually say ''Fue un placer charlar contigo''' = It was a pleasure to chat with you when concluding a conversation with friendly native speakers.

You should say: tengo que irme = I have to leave

Irme is from the verb ''irse'' and means to leave You do not need to state a destination when using this verb.

Tengo que ir means I have to go and is incorrect without stating a destination eg Tengo que ir a la estación de ferrocaril para coger un tren = I have to go to the railway station to catch a train.

I hope this helps grin

I often say:

Ha sido un placer. (It's been a pleasure).

Also, I agree you need "Tengo que irme" to say you need to leave.

I would say "fue un placer," but that is what comes out without really thinking. Wait for more responses.
