If the arrangement has run its course, say so in one message. I have liked this, and I want to stop. You do not need a speech about their character. Clarity is the respectful version.
Send it in the channel you already use, rather than arriving for a final night that contradicts the message. If you share friends, tell them something dull and kind. Then remove the easy path back if you know you will take it at midnight. Muting counts. So does being honest that a lonely Tuesday is still a Tuesday, and the ending still stands.
If what you wanted was a clearer agreement about other partners, have that talk instead. When you want a new start, join free and say the shape of the evening in the first message.

Do not arrive for a final night that contradicts the message you are about to send, or have just sent.
If you share friends, tell them something dull and kind. Then make the easy path back a little harder if you know you will take it at midnight.

Reading the reply needs a plan.
