I went on a few first dates with people I met online, mostly through a now defunct dating site.
For me, if I knew after one cup of coffee that I wouldn't want to see my date again,
I told them directly, and
Because I had met them online, and
Because we had only gone out once,
I would send an email.
I would say, You are an awesome person, but
I didn't feel any chemistry between us. <-- Yes, I really did this.
Several dates might require a telephone call, but
Even if one is shy, I think an email is better than nothing.
I enjoyed getting to know you, but I don't think we have much in common, or
I liked meeting you. Maybe our paths will cross again some time.
<-- Is that too vague?
