I know this is probably the silliest thing to be needing advice about. I have absolutely no idea how to say I am not interested without sounding like a total [profanity deleted by moderator]. I have this dilemma because I know people, including myself, join this website to meet people but rejection is still just as hard. Please help me!

"I appreciate your time but I'm not interested" "I don't see this progressing" "I don't think we're a good match" blah blah blah.

I really appreciate variaties of the following two, not much negativity in either of them :

Via e-mail : I had a lot of fun, and it was nice talking to you, unfortunately I do not think we are a good match, I wish you best of luck in your search.

At the end of the date : I had a lot of fun and it was nice meeting you, I wish you good luck in your search.

I think it is really kind to just be up front. I just went out on a first date with a really nice man, but really wasn't into it. He called me the next day and I just told him that I did not feel a romantic connection but knew he'd find someone amazing. I had no trouble telling him what a great guy he was and wish him luck. That is so much kinder than avoiding him. I prefer a man who is direct in the same way cause who wants to be with someone who doesn't want to be with them, right?

"You remind me of my sister/brother."

"We are just not suited, I'm sure you can find someone who is".

"Adios, amigo".
