I met a guy a little over two weeks ago. He is really nice and attractive and he likes me A LOT. However I dont feel like there is enough in common for our relationship to grow together and I really dont want to hurt him or become the "bad" one in the end for knowing this now and ignoring it. Moreover I have a "sense" he may have emotional issues.
So we have seen eachother about 6 or so times. We have NOT been intimate besides for kissing. He is supposed to come over tonight but I dont think I should sustain this anymore with him. I've already met his dad - we went out on his family's boat last weekend.
My birthday is coming up in the next couple of days and Im afraid he is gonna do something for me and if I dont break it off now and Im going to feel soooooooooo bad, as if I'm using him for compoany KNOWING that our thing wont go anywhere.
HELP HELP HELP!!!

You sound pretty definitive that you want out and yes, do it before your birthday. Just tell him he's a great guy and you enjoy each other's company but you've seen each other often enough to know that yo u don't feel you have a dynamic together that would work long term so you feel you should end things before the two of you get in too deep. If he asks for reasons give him some diplomatic ones(i.e: different goals)
