How do I say thanks but no thanks to someone after a date?

I've spent the last 3 weeks texting with someone a few states away who I met on a dating app. Recently we got together in a park to chat and drink wine. I don't feel romantically interested. How do I handle this?

We have texted virtually every day for a bit, laughing and joking a lot, sharing personal info, sending occasional photos and having a couple chats on the phone.

It started to get a little weird so I made sure to say we should meet up in person soon. She looked pretty different than her photos and wasn't really what I imagined. But we've kind of built up a friendship also.

I don't have much experience with this and it's especially unique in a time of covid where you're not necessarily meeting in person.

How do I handle this diplomatically without hurting them?
