Just say, I'm kind of tired I had a long day, thanks. Don't elaborate - it's just a waste of time & energy!

Was the date bad because he was offensive, or bad because you were just totally uninterested?
If it's the first, you don't owe him a nice explanation.
If it's the second, try "I'm sorry. The chemistry just wasn't there." No more explanations necessary; don't get sucked into a conversation about why you don't suit. Definitely don't give a fake number or invent some weird excuse; that's lame and insulting.
Somewhat related point: I had a gorgeous female friend who went to Italy. She said guys were constantly saying things in the street, hitting on her, etc. At first she was annoyed & tried to ignore it, then she starting telling them to get lost. That just escalated things. Finally she started saying, "Sorry, you're not my type." Oddly enough, she says they all responded the same way: Oh, okay.

Just tell them nicely that you don't think there was any chemistry and you don't want to waste your time or waste theirs....You know my best friend had the worst first date ever with this "moron"!! She was a single mom living off of $1000.00 a month!! Daycare was 300, rent was 400....so anyway, he invited her to a nice expensive restaurant and at the end he asked her to pay her part! She had money but it was to buy her daughter a pair of shoes and money for food that week, so she told him there, "Ok I'm paying for this but just remember you invited me here, I don't ever want you to call me or look for me, I don't ever want to see you again"....anyway, he looked for her, apologized, she kept on ignoring him, it was the worst first impression she had of him! Anyway, he showed up at her house with bags full of groceries and told her she didn't have to worry about not having what to eat ever again....they are now married and have a daughter together, and he treats her daughter from a previous marriage like she was his own child! So I don't know, maybe you might find the love of your life this way!! lol!!

Be honest and don't say "See ya!" or anything related, because that'll give him a mixed signal. Tell him honestly that you don't plan on staying in touch.
Don't skirt by not calling him. It's more considerate to do it in person instead of by phone or email.
Don't give him the "Let's be friends" speech, that'll just give him the impression of a second chance.
There is no easy way to call it off, but the more mature you handle the situation the better off you'll be.

You have 2 choices - there is the direct and mean way - or the indirect and even meaner way - you either come right out and say - hey I'm not interested in spending more time with you - end of story. You don't need to give him any more information or details. The other option - keeps them dangling and really hurts their feelings but not telling them and just trying to give them hints such as "sorry but I'm washing my hair tonight" or "I really like you but............." Be emotionally strong - I'm sure he's a big boy and can handle it. He'll find another date for crying in the sink. Just be direct and tactful - "I'm not interested in spending more time with you - but it was great meeting you and hanging out."

Just tell them nicely... I would send them a card and say your sorry, you had a really nice time with them but he or she just is not your type of dating material. And if your willing to get to know the person but not date them, then tell them they can call you to hang out but no dates as you arent interested in them like that.. but you think they would make a great friend

Give them a fake phone number! And why don't you wanna be rude, you're not planning to go out with them again anyways, right?

It's likely that I'll sense how poorly our time together went !! & I might be the first to apollogize !! & say something like maybe it just was'nt meant for use to go on a date on certain day,or night !?! .. & perhaps we'll have better luck under different circumstances !?!

I personally have a hard time rejecting people cuz I know it hurts feelings, so I will make soemthing up, like...My ex and I have decided to get back together, or I thought I was ready to start dating again, but I feel now that I'm not. Something along those lines! lol

say this was fun (even though it wasn't) but I don't think I want to go out again, I'm going to take a break from dating for a while. If I change my mind I'll call you.
