We only went out once and I didn't really think we had that great of chemistry but the other person did. Any help would be great!!

This person lives an hour and a half away from me. Should I still drive there?

If you went out once, think it's fine.

Even if you didn't feel the chemistry, the other person is still a human being. It would be quite impersonnal for you to send them an email. If you don't feel comfortable doing it face to face, a phone call will do. You don't even have to make any moves at all until that person contacts you but when they do, don't lead them on. Just say something like "it was really nice going out with you, you are a great person but just not what I'm looking for". Plain and simple. Not cruel but honest.
Also, don't say something like "I don't think we are looking for the same thing" because you really don't know what that person is looking for, and since you already said they feel the chemistry with you, then you are trying to speak for them. I know for me, that infuriates the hell out of me, when someone else tries to justify their actions based on what they "think" I do or don't want. Just be upfront. The bottom line is be kind. There will be a time when the tables are turned and you are feeling someone and they aren't feeling you. How will you like to be told?
Good luck.

It's always better to do it in person. Breaking off a relationship through mail, email, or by voice message is considered rude. Be strong and confront the issue don't be weak.

Don't do that thru e-mail. Just call the person or go see them to dump them. I got dumped through e-mail 7 weeks ago & it sucked. My b/f ended a 2 year relationship with a "lets be friends" e-mail. Be nice about it & do it face to face.

personally ithink using email to break up is a cowadly act. if you and the person your breaking up with are not in the same town and you have a phone number for the person your going to break up with use it and talk to them on the phone.
however it is always better to break up face to face.
Just explain why you don't think the relationship will work and just be honest. thats all you can do.
there is no way to stop a person from being hurt by a break up.
just my opinion.
