Now what do I do?

I've been out with a friend a few times. He's really very nice guy. And we have always had a good time. But he just doesn't light my fire, if you know what I mean. But last weekend we were out and had a couple too many drinks and did the deed. I know, you don't have to tell me.
Now, he has called me everyday. I can tell he wants more out of this relationship than I do. How can I let him down nicely and tell him to back off. I was recently divorced and this dating thing has me overwhelmed right now. Thank you

Well,,, from a man............You owe it to him to explain your feelings that he just isn't the ONE for you..You said he doesn't "light your fire"....So say it just like that and sooner rather than later or he will get really hurt...............I know because I got mixed messages and it sucks and hurts...........be honest tell him" you had too many drinks and the fog has cleared....sorry dude but that's the situation" and any other realtionship is just a fantasy............hard,,, but you gotta do it my dear....save his heart!!

Thank you. I talked to him last night. It went well. I'm so new to this dating stuff. I was married for 30 years and now I'm starting over. Maybe I should go buy "Dating for Dummies". LOL
