… you mind about someone.

What’s the best way to let them know?

Should you tell them the reason(s) or is that pointless?

It depends in the context. After forty years of marriage you probably should. After two messages on fab, probably not.

Adjust for circumstances in between.

Depends if it’s a negative to positive or a positive to negative.

Also depends what they currently know/think about your views

Context….

.

It's very, very situational.

People change their minds, it happens. Depending on the relationship I have with another, I'd change how I respond. I'd try and do it with as much respect and tact as the situation needs.

I think this is the right way to go about it.

Ah right. I would just say the chatting is not going in the direction you hoped.....

I think that gets embroiled in issues. I recently decided against meeting a guy from here and said why as diplomatically as I could. He argued the toss for ages. Next time I am just saying no. I'm not feeling it. I don't want to meet you

Clearly it depends on the situation/context... assuming that this about chatting then just be honest and considerate, but brief.

From good to bad. Ghosting is the usual way isn’t it? From bad to good? The person probably knows you’ve started warming to them, so I wouldn’t worry about it.

I think it's like saying no in the first place - the more info you give, the more the other person can work with. It's easier on both parties to keep it short and sweet.

I’ve never understood why people try to argue this. I’d be beyond embarrassed to keep on pestering someone who isn’t interested in me for whatever reason.

But then, there are quite a lot of behaviours people try on me that I would never dream of replicating. So maybe it’s not important for me to understand.

It depends, especially if you have committed to informing them. If, previously, there's significant interaction between you, then it could be supportive to let them know that you are pursuing a different agenda.

Via Fab, for limited engagement chats, it's probably superfluous.

I think people can tell when the energy has gone from messages.

We’d tell people or let the conversation naturally die.
