It sounds like you don’t like him. That’s honestly fine. You aren’t required to keep seeing every person you go on a first date with. Doesn’t make you a bad person. My advice would be honest; tell him that you’re not interested in him that way. And if he wants to, you’d like to stay in contact. Seriously, don’t draw this out or hide the truth, it’ll hurt you both later.

it wasn't anything he did wrong, he's really kind and sweet. im physically attracted to him and everything but we don't have much in common. he's really into video games and anime and im into like pop culture and young adult novels, stuff like that. today he spent half the date talking about anime and i understand he's into it but im just not. im just not feeling what he's feeling and i feel like he has to be forcing it bc im not joking when i say we have nothing in common

by pop culture i meant more along the lines of music, television, film. not like keeping up with the kardashions. 💀 and also there were just a lot of awkward moments and when we kissed it was fine. im not sure why im the bad guy here. it's perfectly normal to not feel a spark, we had two dates.

i didn't say that. i said we had nothing in common, he said he wanted to take me to anime convention when i told him i'm not interested in something like that, and when i suggested we find something to watch together he rejected all of my suggestions. he wasn't a very good listener, and i felt like he wasn't interested in me, more of the idea of having a girlfriend. i barely was able to express my interest bc he kept talking abt his.

i guess i didn't really understand why i didn't like him until i unpacked it, it wasn't so much of a difference in hobbies but his disregard for me

Bruh two dates? You def don’t know everything about him, I’d say go on one more,then if you don’t feel it still then tell him that

I disagree with everyone saying you should go on another date when you’re not feeling it, or saying that you’re a bad person for not wanting to go on another date. Your feelings are valid. I agree with #1’s initial point on giving the specific, actionable feedback on what went wrong that you’ve unpacked in this thread to him though. Being candid with him about what went wrong and why you aren’t feeling it will make you different than the other women, and can help him in the future.
