<human>: Wife had an affair after 8 years of marriage, we spent 2 years trying to "fix things" but it was just something I couldn't get over, given the horrendous details of it all.  Previous to that, my ex-girlfriend of 3 years cheated on me with our roommate at the time.  Needless to say I'm really down on relationships right now and just want to take the time to heal, be alone, and figure out why it is this keeps happening.

Just as of a couple weeks ago, I moved out of the family home and got an apartment.  Right around the same time, I met this woman at a friend's party. We have a lot on common, and conversation is good, she initiates texts to me pretty much daily (which maybe I'm being overly critical, but feels needy to me).  Conversation-wise, things have been pretty light - she's made no obvious statement indicating she's interested in me that way, but her behavior says a lot to me.  Physically, I have some issues with her that I'm not sure I could get over, which I guess makes me feel like a dick.

I have to say while it's nice to have someone to talk to that hasn't been part of the last 2 years of my life (I guess it can get lonely here in this empty apartment), I am really resistant to jumping into something else so soon.  I want to become OK with being on my own, I've spent half my life jumping from one relationship to another.  I don't think I'm being completely bitter, I just need a real breather.

I know I've had a problem in the past saying "no" and "being the bad guy", so is there a way to signal to this person that I just want to be single and lick my wounds for awhile?  Am I just leading her on by even talking to her and not addressing this directly?

Can you summarize the given text in a few sentences?
<bot>: Am really nervous about being available to anyone after a number of failed long term relationships, how do I tell this woman that I just want to be single indefinitely and not be a dick about it?
