I generally just subscribe to the "ignore him til he goes away" school of thought when it comes to ill-matched suitors. Not the nicest, but we all know how to play that game.
Why didn't you like him?
Went out on a date. Nice enough guy but I'm not interested in him romantically.
He's already sniffing around for date #2. Should I just blow him off or be direct?
I feel bad because he is nice, but . . . yeah. It ain't happenin.

Why aren't you interested in him? Are you SURE you're not interested in him?
Yeah, after #1 I would have been ready to roll out too I've had a date with a nice guy, really cute but when I asked him what the last book he read was, he said 'I don't read books. Magazines sometimes.' We didn't have a second date. When he asked me why not, I told him that I love reading and can't see myself with someone who didn't like to read. If higher education is important to you and he thinks it's a waste of time, then maybe for you being with him is a waste of YOUR time.
How old was he? And was he at least cute?
Are those enough reasons? Nice guy, though. Really . . . he took me on a nice little date . . . but I was read' to go after an hour.
- He didn't go to college and disdains college and thinks people who did go to college are chumps. (Dual-degreed sister over here who works in higher education )
- He's older than me but acts younger. (Seriously, he sounds like a 13 year old except instead of talking about video games and manga he talks about cars and computeres.)
- He's broke. (Y'all shoulda seen the car he picked me up in. I'm not saying a dude has to have a luxury automobile, but damn. I didn't feel safe at all. I half expected the door to fall off into the road.)
- I'm not attracted to him. (He's tall and thin. I'm short and round. We would be lookin' like the dish and the spoon )
- He does not know how to carry on a conversation. (See points #1 and #2 . . . I think those directly impact #5.)

Why did you go on a date with him in the first place? Did you know all this about him before hand?

Okay I'll be upfront . . .
He keeps texting me. How do I do this? Do I come out and say "Look dawg, we ain't a love match. Keep it moving." I guess I'll wait until he brings up going again?

whoa you re a meanie lol.I'm not interested in seeing you again. Please stop texting me.
I know it's harsh but it seems like kind and subtle struck out so it's harsh's turn. If he's still texting you after that, I'd just stop responding
