-"I think we're not good together": starting with 'I think' always sounds like you're being nicer, because you've been thinking about it not just quickly reacting. Avoiding using 'you' can also be good, but this sounds like you're breaking up wth someone.
-"I really dislike you": a bit more firm, 'dislike' less intense than 'hate'.
-"You aren't my cup of tea": British expression, 'not my cup of tea' means that something doesn't suit you. You're being nice since you're saying there isn't anything wrong with them, you just don't like them.

-"I can't stand you" this would be as close as you can get to "I hate you" without sounding mean. It implied that you just can't tolerate being around them.
