I've come on here because some of you are very 'eloquent', shall we say.

I have been contacted, after a year, by someone who I liked very much. He asked me out for a meal, which I agreed to, and then said he'd book a hotel for us. Stupidly I agreed and then he went silent. He's now contacted me a week later saying he's checked his diary and he's free on * March. Total cunt. He can't contact me after a year, for sex, when his diary is free. I know I won't hear from him again after our 'night out'. I want to write a scathing yet witty email. Over to you.

Why not send a reply saying 'I'm so sorry, I mixed you up with someone else. I'm very embarrassed about this Blush Blush...but no, sorry, I don't want to see you. Hope you understand.'

Every single millimetre of me is smiling at Wordfactory's suggestion and at LeQueen's second one! Smile

Thanks everyone, some great ideas! It was a fluke I saw his first email as it was sent to an old account. I'll just pretend that after 6 days of checking, I just gave up and didn't bother looking again - until June :)

I like the response by rubyroouk

"Can my mum come too? She's very broadminded"

RubyrooUK · 17/02/2012 18:55

I've changed my mind. Do what talc says. Grin

Hah, what a prick.
Best one is Ruby's - ooooh, kill him with kindness, i.e.:

I'd just say "Sorry to take a while to get back to you, was busy and missed your email. I've checked my diary too but I've actually got a lot going on in March now and won't have time to see you - thanks very much for the offer anyway."

Which is a polite version of Peter Cook's, gawd rest his soul.

Dear ArseWipe

Thank you for your e mail. You seem to have mistaken me for the two bit prostitute whose card is clearly on top of mine in your wallet. No matter. I have been meaning to cancel our tentative date since I saw that graffiti in the City Centre shit-house about the lack of eminence of both your appendage and sexual prowess. Have a nice life.
I remain, thankfully, not yours

Ruby's is the best. Thanks but no thanks, in the most carefree, I couldn't be bothered way.
