    Long story short, four dates into a budding relationship, I'm just not down anymore.
    It's time to end it.
    She lives about an hour away, and while I don't want to be a jerk, I don't particularly want to drive an hour to tell this girl I don't want to see her anymore.

    Any suggestions?

    Call her, then. But for the love of Tebow, don't text her.

    Um. yeah. Don't text her, e-mail her, IM her or do it any other way than on the phone. She deserves at least that courtesy. All women do.

    That's how I found out for sure that my marriage was over.

    I'm not kidding.

    I can and do laugh about it now, though......I actually wish I had thought of it. :D

    Drive over, have sex with her and break up with her via a note left on the pillow after you sneak out in the middle of the night.

    Four dates? Is it that big an issue?
    "Yo, ain't happening. Later."

    So, uh, I should be concerned because The Queen's Facebook relationship line now says "single?"

    I wouldn't worry about it. If you stopped going down after four dates, she was probably going to break up with you anyway.

    Are things that serious after 4 dates? I would think in person or phone would be fine.

    But, whatever you decide to do, please don't say you want to be "friends." Hate that.
