Thing is, you shouldn't have to justify why you don't like someone.

I mean, when you fall in love, you tend to try to justify why that person is awesome to you, but odds are those are all second thoughts after you started liking them. Another person could have the same exact set of characteristics and generate nothing from you because you didn't meet them at the right time or the right way.

Same goes for not seeing someone romantically. You sometimes just don't. You don't need to excuse yourself for not liking someone back.

There is, however, not liking someone back... and labelling someone's feelings as insincere based on prejudice. You have no obligation to like back and are in your total right to cut the other short (actually, please do, don't play with people's feelings) but you have no right to make the other feel unnecessarily miserable or humiliated about their feelings for you.
