writes: If you think you would like to be friends with someone and you can see think they are angling for a date/sex, do you make it clear to them you aren't looking for anything? or do you hang out with them and then just be distant. Sometimes I say to guys I'm not looking for anything romantic and they then say they just want to have sex...meaning I have to awkwardly be like I dont want sex either (read sex with you).If a very close friend keep coming on to you pretending its a joke and they keep doing it even though you don't respond. They never explicitly ask you out, and you don't want to hurt their feelings; how do you make boundaries clear?If someone keeps explicitly flirting with you, telling you that you're hot etc, then when you start to flirt with them or show them attention they flirt for a while then act very distant and ignore you.Then in those situations are they playing games, preying on attention, as when they are offered opportunity to follow through they suddenly dont show interest.

Be open and honest, being distant and fading away only leaves people left feeling confused and asking themselves what happened. If these advances make you feel uncomfortable, then tell your friend that, if he is your friend he should understand. Tell him you want him as a friend but that is all.

Yes you should make it clear that you aren't interested instead of leading someone on (in a way) only to let them down later on
