A guy told me through an email that I'm attractive, smart, and that he thinks we have a lot in common. This means he may be interested in something more than friendship, right? But I have no interest in him whatsoever. I am not attracted to him and I think what he said to me was pretty presumptuous because he barely knows me. He seems to be a pretty arrogant person also. However, his mom is a good friend and I don't want her to get angry at me over him. How do I nip this in the bud before it does damage to our relationship?

Actually, there is something to nip in the bud. He outright flirts with me and attacks me as soon as I come online. I think I know the nature of this situation, thanks. I asked because the guy lies and uses arrogance as a shield for insecurity. If I were to flat out tell him I'm not interested, he would probably turn it around on me to protect himself.

Actually what it means is that he thinks you are attractive, smart, and that the two of you have a lot in common. So there isn't a realtionship with him, there isn't anything to "nip in the bud".

When it comes to something like this...you have to just about think of yourself. His mother might get upset but that is not her place to be. It is your life. You should be able to make a choice and she will just have to accept it. If she is really a good friend then she will not be upset. You should just tell him that you are not interested in anything more then a friend with him. Dont tell him that there might be something in the future though, that will only make him think that you like him...ok?

He's obviously not presuming, he's stalking you..lol
just tell his mom that you only like him as a friend, or tell him whatever..either way..that should get him off yer back, but he'll still stalk ya....lol

Tell him thanks for the nice compliments, and that if he knows any hot friends, tell them you'd like to meet them. Nothing sends the "I'm not interested" signal like asking the guy to set you up with someone else.

Just ignore it and if he comes no stronger, claim you didn't take him seriously and that you don't see him like that. Do it seriously, but with some light-heartedness.

look you just have to tell him. and you should also talk to his mom, aswell. just let her know that you dont want to be with him right now. if she is such a good friend, she'll understand.
