We've only been on 2 dates but I know the spark isn't there. I know I SHOULD be a 'man' and tell him in person or on the phone but its much easier to do in email. Is that so wrong?

Not wrong at all. Spare all the awkward moment meeting face to face. It's only been 2 dates afterall. To break up a relationship however, would require the curtesy to meet in person.

Yes, it's wrong. How would you like to get an email like that?
If you've only been on 2 dates, it's not like you're breaking up with someone after 5 years and it's going to be terribly hard to do. Take the guy out to lunch and just tell him that he's a really nice person and you think the two of you could be better friends than anything else. There's no one else, you just don't think it's fair to continue to see each other in a romantic way if you're not feeling that way.
Email is over used in many instances, and this would be one of them.

it's only 2 dates, so i don't see anything wrong with an email - if you had been together longer telling a person over the phone or in person would be the right thing to do.

Yes, that is wrong. You should be honest with him. That is almost as bad as breaking up with someone on a Post-it (Burger & Carrie on an eposide of Sex & the City) and rumor has it that Jessica broke up with Nick the same way. Need I say more. You should tell him although you are not attracted to him, your opinions may help him find out what he needs to correct. Even if he's not your type he still deserves to have an companion and so do you. I hope you find someone!!

man, honestly, if it's easier for u to express urself that way, and be completely honest without slip'n into pity mode where u'll put it off another day cuz u dont want to hurt him, yes..but at the same time, it might be better to say it in person...i did the email thing i felt hella bad...i got over it but still....if u didnt do it already, really think about it before u press send...good luck

Yes it is wrong. You need to muster up the courage and do the right thing by talking to him personally. It's not the end of the world for either of you and he will respect you a lot more talking to him face to face and being honest.

I think email is okay. That way if he is really hurt/angry then he doesn't have to let you see it and you can both deal with your feelings without being face to face. After all, it's only been 2 dates.

Ask yourself how you would feel if someone dumped you in an email. Me personally, I would much rather the person have enough respect for me to have the guts to tell me to my face.

No not at all. Only 2 dates. I'm sure he will understand. Be nice and thoughtful in your letter to him. Stay friends, just wasn't the time for you both together..Good Luck :):):)

It's not wrong, but don't make a phone or e-mail a substitute for communication as a whole.
