I owe you a proper explanation and instead you're getting this paragraph. I met someone at my friend's thing and it turned into something and I didn't plan it and I feel awful and you were never anything less than great.

So this is awkward to type out but I matched with my coworker by accident and now things are Complicated with a capital C. I don't think I can give you what you're looking for. Please still recommend that ramen place though.

You're genuinely one of the most interesting people I've matched with, which is exactly why I feel I owe you honesty: I've decided to give things another go with someone from before. I hope that's not too jarring to read at 11pm on a Tuesday.

Thank you for the three lovely dates and for being patient with my terrible parallel parking. I've decided to step back from dating entirely for a while. Not a soft no. A logistical no. My life is held together with tape.

Okay, full honesty because you've earned it: the spark wasn't there for me. I really wanted it to be. I even tried to talk myself into it on the train. But I'd rather be honest now than lukewarm for three months.

This is going to sound dramatic but I had a small epiphany in the cereal aisle and realised I'm not ready to be someone's person yet. I needed to tell you before another nice dinner made it harder.

I had such a lovely time on Saturday. You're funny and kind and you held the door in a way that felt sincere rather than performative. I just don't think I'm in the right headspace to date right now. It's not you. It's my entire life.

You're the kind of person I'd want to be friends with for thirty years, which is a beautiful thing and also, I've learned the hard way, a romantic death sentence. I think we're better as the friends version. I'm sorry.

You did nothing wrong. You were attentive and thoughtful and you remembered my sister's name. I think that's what scared me, honestly. I'm going to need some time, and I don't want to make you wait inside a maybe.

I have to be honest: I'm still not over the last one. It wouldn't be fair to start something with you while I'm carrying someone else around. You deserve to be the main character, not the rebound chapter.

Hey — I've been sitting with this for a few days. I think you're wonderful, but I realised on the walk home that I felt more relief than excitement when it ended. You deserve someone whose first feeling is excitement.

I think you're going to make someone incredibly happy. I also think, with a clarity that arrived around 2am, that the someone isn't me. Sending this with real warmth and a small amount of cowardice.

I want to be a person who can date a kind, stable, emotionally available human. I am, unfortunately, not yet that person. I'm telling you this over text because telling you in person would require an emotional availability I have just admitted to not having.

You are objectively a catch and I am subjectively a disaster, and I think for once in my life I'm choosing not to inflict the disaster on the catch. Take that as the compliment it genuinely is.
