You just had an It's Just Lunch DC date that was really nice, but he/she just
isn’t right for you. At the end of the date they ask for your number. What do
you do?
1)
Consider the friend option. If you just
spent 3 hours in Washington DC with him but know it’s not going to develop into a love
connection, you might want to consider friendship. You can tell him “I really
had a great time, I can see us becoming friends. Would you like to come to my
party this Saturday?” or if he seems like your co-worker’s type, tell him! “You
know, I actually have a friend you might like, can I give her your number?”
2)
Be straightforward. She would much rather
find out at the end of your first DC date than wait for your call that never
comes. Say, “I feel the chemistry just isn’t quite right between us.”
3)
Wish them luck. Although this is not ideal...If you’re not as
comfortable being straightforward. You can just say, “Good luck with your
future dates. Thanks again.” they should get the hint. If it seems they don't get it, a more direct approach is always effective.
So how have you handled this situation? Any fun stories?
