What do I owe him?

If I've gone on 4 dates with someone, is it ok to email him to let him know that I'm not interested in seeing him anymore? Or do you think I owe him a phone call?

Yes, I'd say email is acceptable after just 4 dates--I personally would prefer getting an email if I were in his shoes rather than a phone call so that's how I would approach it.

Has he actually asked you out again, though (or called at least)? If not, I wouldn't write anything until that happens.

I know that email is all the rage these days, but I still feel that the guy deserves a phone call.

I think an email is fine. Especially if you communicate that way quite a bit.

Send him a breezy e-mail or call him and say that you enjoyed going out with him, but that you feel that you two don't have enough things in common to date. Wishi him good luck in his search. That should do it.

Why don't you wait til he contacts you to ask you out again? If he doesn't, then clearly he's not interested either and no conversation is necessary
