You Wanted to Like Him… But You Don’t
He’s polite.
He’s consistent.
He says all the right things.
And yet—every time his name pops up on your phone, you sigh instead of smile.
You feel guilty, but deep down you know:
It’s just not there.
So now you’re stuck. Do you keep responding out of politeness? Or do you disappear quietly and hope he gets the hint?
Connection Can’t Be Forced—And You Shouldn’t Try
So many women feel pressured to “give it more time” just because someone seems nice.
But kindness alone isn’t chemistry.
You don’t owe anyone your romantic energy just because they weren’t rude.
A respectful match doesn’t automatically become your match.
Honesty Doesn’t Have to Hurt
There’s a way to be kind without ghosting—and clear without being cruel.
You can say something like:
“I’ve enjoyed getting to know you, but I’m not feeling the connection I’m looking for. Wishing you all the best out there!”
It’s short.
It’s honest.
And it’s enough.
You don’t need to overexplain, justify, or soften your truth into something it’s not.
Trust the Energy You Feel
If you feel drained instead of excited, if the conversation feels like a chore instead of a choice—it’s okay to step back.
Letting go of what’s not quite right is what opens the door for something that is.
You’re not cold. You’re clear.
And clarity is a beautiful kind of kindness.
Letting Go Is Part of the Process
Online dating isn’t just about finding someone—it’s about finding the right one.
That means you’ll have conversations that don’t lead anywhere.
That’s not failure. That’s refinement.
So walk away when you need to. With grace. With strength. And without guilt.
Because when it’s truly right—you won’t feel like you’re trying to convince yourself.
You’ll just know.
