When to “break up”?

I’m on a phone so pardon the grammatical mistakes.

So I’ve been seeing this woman for almost a month now. We’re both parents getting out of long term relationships, both divorced years ago. Our kid free schedules line up perfectly and we both work in education so our work schedules also line up. At first I thought there might be a spark between us, we both are having fun and we’ve slept together and I was hoping that a spark would develop the more I get to know her. However, that hasn’t happened on my end. I’ve realized that I don’t want to be in a relationship not just with her but I’d rather be single for a while. I’ve never really been single, going from one long term relationship to another. I don’t want to sleep with other woman, I would just rather be alone and enjoy that. Maybe try solo traveling this summer and not think about a relationship. It’s not that I don’t know how to be by myself. I haven’t lived with anyone since my ex-wife. I just want to live my life right now without thinking about or looking for a relationship which I’ve never done.

The problem I’m having is that her life isn’t complicated but she does have a lot going on right now between her work and she’s just finishing a class. I don’t want to hurt her but I just can’t find the right time to break it off. Obviously, by now I’m thinking she deserves more than a text. We’re supposed to have dinner tomorrow night after her class at a restaurant and I’m sure that either I would sleep at her place or she at mine but that would lead to sex and I don’t want that. Should I say something at dinner, after dinner, call her tonight, wait until the weekend for a phone call? If I chose to call her tonight it wouldn’t be until late since she has a work thing until 8-9 then has an hour commute and I think that would suck for her dealing with that phone call right before bedtime. Basically, what do you guys think would be the best way for me to break things off with her. I’m leaning towards saying something at dinner but it feels like an asshole move. Thanks
