We get on extremely well, and he asked to hang out yesterday, so I said yes. I think he likes me, as he kept poking me and hugging me, and laughed at most things I said. Eventually we found a quiet little bench and sat on it together, he kept hugging me and I admite, it was nice, but the problem is I don't LIKE him. I like another boy who is a close friend, but that isn't the problem. The problem is that I feel as if I am leading him on, he is one of the nicest guys on the planet, but I feel guilty when I hug him and smile at him. Am I leading him on? Should I stop hanging around with him? Thanks :)

If you do not like him don't make him suffer. Scowl if you have to or better yet, since you are just getting together, tell him you are not attracted to him in the way he is attracted to you.

 Your not leading him on, your being friendly. But, he may think of it as something completely different.My best advice for you, would be to talk to him. Ask him if he has feelings for you.. or tell him you have feelings for someone else. If he does have feelings for you, tell him you want nothing more then his friendship.But you never know, maybe he thinks he's leading you on.. by hugging you all the time. It could be the other way around!!You never know until you talk to him about it.

If you think he's unsure of your feelings toward him then draw a line with the teasing and hugging. He may notice your change in behaviour if you do stop, and only if he asks, you should explain that you don't want to give him the wrong impression.
