A female , *iffy_lou22 writes:

This boy asked me out. I'm 17, he's 18. I'm really sorta close with his brother, and this boy, my friend's brother, really likes me, and I got home last night and I had an offline, where he asked me out. I feel so horrible, but I don't like him that way what-so-ever, but, I mean, he's not mentally retarded or anything, but he is a slow learner, and I mean he's really nice and sweet, but he doesn't talk, especially to girls. Anyways, I need a nice way to let him down, without breaking his heart, because he has wanted to go out with me ever since he moved here. Please! Help me?!

There is no really easy way to do this cos what you are going to tell him is a negative, so even if you wrap it up in ribbons he still is not going to want to accept it. For his sake don't gift wrap your "No, Thank you!" In a case like this the shorter the better.

Tell him that you're not interested in going out with him but you might like to be friends. It's better for you to tell him that you don't want to go out with him than go out with him for a few days and then tell him that you don't want to go out with him anymore and never have done. Does your friend know about this? If not why don't you tell her and maybe she could help you too.
