[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I can't imagine a positive outcome for the other party coming from telling them that you don't want to be friends anymore.
This is my thinking, but I'd be open to an alternative.
Anything I can think of fails 2 of 3 in the 'is it kind, is it true, is it necessary' test.
Eeeeeeeee! I just sent my husband a sexy love note! From work! I feel 16! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Go you!
Holy shit. I got into that tutoring seminar.
Now I have to decide if I'm going to take it. I'm e-mailing the professor to see if I can meet with her to ask her some questions, before I make my final decision.
Break things off obviously and cleanly, though, don't wait for her to take the hint. And do it sooner than later. Have an answer you can defend if she asks why and wants to know if there's a way to fix things. And if there isn't a way, say so. Yes, it means you've got to deal with angst and hurt feelings, but as the person who was supposed to have gotten the hint that my company was no longer desired, it's kinder.
Wow vw. I guess it didn't go as poorly as you thought.
No. It did go poorly. Maybe she read my writing and liked my work. Or talked to some of my professors or something.
Although, she's back in town and is making overtures to hang out which I, while wishing to be friendly and civil, am dreading
you can be friend and civil while saying no. if she pushes, just say "our friendship ended really badly, and I'm not interested in going through that again. let sleeping dogs lie" (or something less southern)

Yeah, see that's why I think it depends. I've done both letting things just drift off and telling someone I couldn't be friends with them. Mostly it's a "While I can't force you to be the person I wish you were, I absolutely have the right to recognize that you aren't what I need and therefore will end the relationship." thing.

wow, that's GREAT.
