I am very not use to having to friend zone or tell women I am not interested. I rarely even get the opportunity to do so. Anyway, one woman on a dating app messaged me. She is very kind. I almost never get messaged first and I was incredibly happy to get one. So I messaged back and we started chatting pretty quickly. However, I never checked her location until after exchanging many messages. She lives about 4 hours from me. I told myself to never engage with anyone on the dating apps who is more than an hour away from me. So realistically I should have never messaged her back. She is cool and a nice person but I couldn't see myself driving 4 hours to meet her frequently. What is the "correct" way to sort of tell a woman that you aren't interested? Like I said, she is nice so I don't want to ghost her. I really pride myself on not ghosting people. However, I never really have to ghost any women because I rarely get dates. And when I do, its the woman that ghosts me. Which is fine. I just don't want to do the ghosting. Any advice would be helpful. I'd hate to basically just say "Lmao, not interested." or something.
>>34271232why don't you tell her what you've just told us?
>>34271236That probably is a good idea. Should I say it in a nicer way? What I really want to say is "I like you, but I didn't look at the distance first. I am not interested in dating someone so far from me. Sorry."
>>34271245the honesty is to make you feel betterif you led her on for a while, she probably won't be too understanding, no matter how you say it
