First date follow-up

So the guy from last night, who I guess I will call Sincere Guy, wrote me this morning saying it was nice to meet me and he hopes we can "do something again sometime." It's a very sweet note but I'm not sure what to say. I don't think romance is in our future but I think he'd make a lovely friend, but is this something I send him over the dating web site? Or should I meet him and talk to him in person? So conflicted! When I opened his note, I thought it was going to be a "we should just be friends" thing and I was looking forward to it. Now I am confused. I wish there's was an online dating etiquette guide.

Actually, I just checked and there are several. But they're not very useful.

if you are not into him then don't "just be friends" to be polite.

unless you **genuinely** like him as a friend

Agreed.

What? The Internet couldn't give you a good answer to your problem? ;)

I agree with Matt.

That said, do I have any advice?

Nope.

My advice is, no need to tell him this in person.
