When you have met over the internet and finally meet for a cup of coffee, and you like him but don't want to continue dating,
what's the best way to tell a guy thanks but no thanks?

ok well, first of all, thank him for having time to meet up with u. then tell him how romantic or how nice he sounded(well if he was) on the internet. tell him that u have decided to not go on because u r afraid ur relationship wouldn't really last long and that u aren't ready. AND also tell him that u really liked him.
ok, well that's my opinion. and i wish u best of luck telling him how u feel! :P

I've been in this situation and it is indeed awkward. If you've only met once or twice I would say you're not obligated to tell him face-to-face unless you feel comfortable. I would just send a quick email and say "hey, I really like you but I don't feel like we're clicking romantically" and not get into too many details over the reasons why unless he asks. It's tricky if you would like to remain friends; hopefully he won't feel hurt. Good luck!

it's not clear whether you want to end things completely with him, or if you want to change the relationship to a friendship. anyway, be honest but gentle, and don't talk about who you're dating in glowing terms (i.e. effectively, "this guy is so much better than you", that sort of thing).

Delete his myspace, change your phone number, and praay he doesn't know where you live.
