We are friends so when he asked for I my number I thought nothing of it, he misinterpreted this that I liked him too. I feel bad cus he looks so sad but this still hasn't put him off. A friend said maybe I should just go on one date with him to make him happy but also it would make me look more available. He's a nice guy but I'm not sure if I like him, he's lovely but when I think of the way I felt with other guys I've dated it just doesn't feel right. I'm not sure if I should give him a shot or not cus I keep remembering what my friend said but then I think it might hurt him more if I go out with him then just drop it Reply to this Question

 I wouldn't do it. If you don't have the same feelings for him, a "date" is not going to change it.

 Well you definitely shouldn't lead him on. Therefore I believe that you shouldn't go on a date with him. Why continue to provide false hope for him if the feelings are not mutual?
I think you should let him know honestly that the interest on your part is not there. You could also mention that you'll be open to having a friendship with him, if he's open to that idea as well.

 Going out with him on one date is not going to please him, in fact in it just going to hurt him even more. If you don't have any feelings for him and cannot see yourself dating him well then sometimes it is better to be cruel to be kind so just be honest with him and turn him down. Maybe in the future you may feel different but for now don't lead him on just be honest with him. It is the best option.
