How does one tell a nice guy who you are not compatible with on many levels in terms of long term cmmitment that you aren’t interested, where as he continues to feel that it’s all going well???
yeh kya hua?
bas mats some things aren't meant to be. call it the FOB factor or whatever.
Yeah..I hear ya.. Well get back on that horse and ride again..I say!!
sure intend to. thanks.
and I thought that you and that doc were a match made in ER.. 
moona ki bachi, I warned you to go easy on this FOB. He wasn't ready for a wink and you dragged him into the rose petal hot tub. ufff larki, tum nai kisi ki baat nahee sun-nee.
Abb kia hoga.
Fungus 
Well, it was an eventuality considering recent events; that’s all I will comment on that. FOBs and American-born/raised folks are as different as black and white, night and day, hot and cold. Trust me on that.
So what happened?
Quit returning phone calls, that oughta work.
moona, don't give me the eye-roll. I told you about the differences the first time you told me about him. I just don't see you fit with a FOB.
pie, he wasn't kinky enough for you?
Urgh!!!! :o
Mats, typical stuff happened. I got insight into his thinking on pertinent life matters/topics. Now I'm stuck trying to figure out how to let him down easy in a non-hurtful way. Suggestions?
Do you want second opinions on what you feel are pertinent issues of discontent.
sweetpie, don't worry too much about his feelings. They don't have feelings. FOBs always base their feelings on ulterior motives.
I am more worried about your feelings because you built too many expectation too soon.
Just stop talking to him and break it up abruptly. That is the ONLY FOB way of doing this. Just pretend it never happened. FOBs are very good in living their lives in denial.
Mats, I've seen his behavior. I see signs of control and have discussed pertinent matters in detail. Although he seems to want to agree with everything I say, I clearly see that the reason is just so he can feel content in perhaps pleasing me, not because he necessarily means it. What does this mean? He'll fooling himself and me in the process as well. He is a typical new comer from Pakistan, I hate to say it that way. Typical stereotypes apply.
well I guess you have done your due diligence. Tell him that while you were speaking to him, you were also speaking to another guy who you find more compatible. That should screw him really nice for years to come.
Why don't you give him a chance .. do u allways find fault in your guys ... he sounds like a nice one and u dont want that .. let me tell you for long term, nice & caring guys are great, because after a while physical attraction fads away, if the other partner doesn't have a nice and gentle personality then I am afraid marriage with machos isn't a piece of cake... sweetpie
tell him he's like a brother to u now, that always works. unless u've gone a bit to far.
Saadia, you could not be more wrong. Physical attraction and niceness are not mutually incompatible.
