Generally something such as "Thanks, you're a really nice guy, but I don't feel a connection"
Simple. Polite. Clear.
It rarely happens though as I can read people, and most people respect and appreciate the non game playing of me making my intentions clear. I can't recall ever having someone say yes to a second date and not following through.
I am sorry but I do not believe for one second most older women would say that.
The point is that he said he'd text her later in the week. Why read into something we are reading about secondhand? The OP needs to follow through and then he will have his answer. As far as her not texting back, that means nothing. She may have thought that was the end of the conversation and is waiting for a text. Maybe not. There really isn't enough info to know.

Saying something like that is distasteful.
There are some instances where you leave some things unsaid.
The appropriate response to that questions is
" Let's see how the night goes"
Or something along those lines.
No, if they decided that they don't want to see you again, that would be rude and distasteful for them to say. That is leading someone on. Very inappropriate. Childish. (Especially since it would be at the end of the date, it also wouldn't make sense).
A person being honest and saying they're not feeling the chemistry, which is almost always what happens when you decide you don't want to see the other person, is the right way to go. Honesty, generally is.

That is not leading someone on. As you have not said yes or no.
Leading someone on is saying this
Yes, id love to see you again
When you have no intentions of doing such.
No there are many instances when honesty is not the appropriate response. This is one of them.
Yeah, don't be sorry for me. I'm not the one with the issue.
Saying "lets see how the night goes" is not lying. To lie you would need to say yes or no without being sincere. That reply doesnt give an answer to the question asked.
