Dear S.Q. I'm a quiet soul, dating again after 20 years. I miss a woman's touch and the companionship. I've had a few dates with a bit of a live wire. She's fun, and there's really nothing about her I don't like, except that she's just too much. I've gotten caught up in texting her a ton, like she does me, but I can't keep this up much longer. I'm exhausted. I've read about this ghosting thing the kids do, but I don't know.
Dear Exhausted, You're not too exhausted to be a gentleman. Ghosting in the old days was when you "dropped" someone and was rude then, as it is now. Make the good-bye short (with a plausible reason like it's too much), make it clear (that it's over and final), make it in person or by phone (never text). We all make mistakes; don't feel bad. Just move on. -SQ
