How to get him to stop texting me so much?

I went on 2 dates with this guy, but it turns out that I only like him as a friend. I told him that I want to be friends with him, but it will never be more then that. He is a really nice guy, but there is no chemistry there. The problem is that he continues to text me all the time and its starting to really annoy me. I don't want to be mean and tell him to stop, 1 or 2 texts a day is cool, but sometimes he sends me 20 texts a day.How to get him to stop texting me so much?
You could be sly and block his number, or you could just tell him to cool it on the texting a bit, you don't have to be mean you could say it in a jokey way, he should get the message,How to get him to stop texting me so much?
Kindly ask him to not send so many texts. ex.


';I love that we can text and be friends, but can you not send me so many texts?';


Try this out. If it doesn't work, turn off your phone for a while and when he sees you arn't answering, he may send you less texts. Hope I helped
