Recently met someone, thing is I dont really want anything serious/long-term with them. Think I may have led them on a little bit. They are nice, but not right for me I can tell already. Whats the best way to let them down if they contact me? There is someone else who I could imagine being better relationship material for myself. Guess I have that bus problem going on at the moment lol

Enjoy the attention until that one comes along!
Yes it is, I'm hoping that when I meet the right guy I will know and it'll all just fall into place, even with my stupid quirks. Fingers crossed
Well good luck with that Im not looking for the 'one' or anything, but definately want to find someone that I feel I click with in every sense if Im going to have something more serious with them. Im playing the dating game at the moment...guess I dont want to commit to going out with someone unless Im completely sure about them. Plus the fact that Im very independent and have become very used to being single now. Strange dating again. Can never decide what I want really. Probably give a lot of mixed vibes off to people. Guess I should just go for it and make a move on the person I have a crush on! And not spend so much time on people who I can tell already would not last long with me.
Hmm, that's pretty much the way I feel too at the moment, or generally maybe.
I think if you don't hear that elusive click loud and clear and from the get-go, then it often is a case of spending your time on the wrong person and pursuing the wrong relationships. You seem to know your mind on this, so just trust your instincts... I'm sure you will anyway
As for the possibility of their contacting you looking to see you again in a romantic sense, I can only echo the sentiments already expressed - be honest and don't beat around the bush, as far as is possible anyway. While they might be a little hurt, I'm sure they'd appreciate your propensity for honesty in the long run... even if they do feel that they've been led down the garden path a little way. G'luck
