A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I was going to meet up with this guy i know and my female friend at first tomorrow for a coffee, but my friend has decided that she wants to go to see her boyfriend. I dont really want to meet this guy alone. Some things happened that now make it uncomfortable for me to be alone with him. They werent really bad things, but i only want to be his friend, and i think he likes me as more than a friend. How can i tell him i'm not going to meet him tomorrow without hurting his feelings ?. My female friend has also asked me if i'm going to meet him on my own tomorrow. What should i say to her ?.

Trust your gut. If you feel so uncomfortable, don't go. Just tell him you're ill and can't go. Tell your friend the truth and tell her that if there's going to be a next time, you'd prefer her not to bail out on you. Caution is good when it comes to these things!

Thanks for your reply. It would be best if i tell them both the same thing though, preferably the truth. As it's better to be honest, dont you think ?. And they are friends so they might tell each other what i said.

fi_the_tree agony auntIf you're not comfortable meeting him on your own, just tell him something came up, and can you meet another time.

Tell your friend the truth, maybe next time she won't ditch you for a fella...
