a2000 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 I went out twice with a guy and have realised that he is not right for me. How can I tell him this? I see him everyday and he keeps asking me out but I can only say i'm busy.. and maybe hope he gets the message? I'm shy! Anyone got any tips? Link to comment
Magic_Monkey Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Personally I think you've just got to be straight with him. Do you like him as a friend? If so tell him you like him as a friend but not in any other way. If not say you don't think it'd work out between you and say straight you don't want to see him again. Sure, it might hurt him but it's better than stringing him along. When you say you're busy he may have slight suspicions that you're just putting him off but if he likes you he'll convince himself that you really are busy and he'll be clinging on to the hope that the next time he asks you you'll say yes.

AlwaysNeedHelp Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 If he told you that he likes you.. Tell him i like you as a friend.. The most important thing that your actions shows that.. I mean dont say i like you as a friend and be so friendly with him.. Be nice but not soo friendly..Some girls say i like u as a friend then act soo nice to guys till they get hurt.. Link to comment
a2000 Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 He told me that he likes me and the second time we went out I said I can go as friends. But now he keeps asking and I don't know how to approach the subject. If he says 'Do you want to go out this weekend?' I wouldn't know how to start. I'd be like 'erm.. i don't know.. i think im doing something else' How should I start telling him without him getting upset? I think I am too nice. Link to comment
AlwaysNeedHelp Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 are you sure your actions doesnt show that you like him ? If he asks you to go out, tell him you can go with him as friends.. Make sure your actions are not so friendly but still be nice.. Link to comment
annie24 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Just tell him straight out - "we can be friends, but I don't feel the chemistry towards you that is necessary for a romantic relationship." Link to comment
Kyoshiro Ogari Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Either way you do it, it's going to hurt him. But the sooner you do it, the better because his "hope" meter and his "like" meter are rising and rising and rising. And the higher his hopes are as well as the high of him liking you, the harder his fall will be. Do it now to minimize the damage. Good luck. Link to comment
