I think telling someone you are not interested in them is really difficult. In my personal experience, I didn't necessarily dislike the person with whom I was breaking up, but I just didn't feel 'it' -- that spark of excitement that makes another person appealing. I just wanted to break up -- not hurt them, hence the 'breaking it to him easy' method. Which, I agree, is not as good as saying it straight out. But doesn't necessarily qualify as lying manipulation, either. (Although it could be a form of cowardice.) If you sense you're getting the brush off, you could try saying -- without anger -- 'Be honest with me. I would rather hear it in plain terms: do you want to date or not?' Be encouraging. Don't act defensive. And then see what she says.
