So OKCupid turned out to be pretty...I don't know what word to use here...lucrative? I got a lot of positive feedback after signing up a few days ago, ended up whittling it down to two very likely candidates.

 

So with one, we started texting and talking on the phone, arranged for dinner and drinks last night. Nice enough time, but zero click on my end. Unfortunately not the case for her. Not only does she blow my phone up today, but she's done everything but come right out and say the actual words regarding coming by and spending the night after I get out of work. This was my first date in almost 9 years, and I am at a complete loss here. I'm talking to someone else and i'm becoming more and more attracted to that one, but I can't figure out how to let the first down gently.

 

I'm really trying not to be a dick here, but after one date do I really need to 'break up' with someone? It's obvious from the messages she's been sending that she thinks this is the start of something big, I just never thought i'd be in this position like four days after I re-entered the dating pool.

Tell her that you are a really great girl but I am too far away from you.

 

If your not far away then idk what to tell you.

No she is just a nut. Ignore her. Send her a text stating that you had a nice time but you have decided to go forward with another women you have been speaking with and you choose not to multidate. Then let all calls go to voice mail. She will find another dude soon enough.

Better yet, a phone call. Texting your way out is nor the right way. If you can't do it eye to eye then use the phone and tell her that your not in the right frame of mind to take it to another level and your not ready for a relationship yet.

 

As far as the next girl your interested in, make sure that your ready because a 9 year gap in dating is a new thing to you and I know this from experience.
