This happens often , either someone approches/proposes us, or we do it, how would you say no in a innovative way, making it less hard hitting and blunt.
Tell me how to say no in a innovative manner.

I usually say things like "I like you, I'm just not feeling the chemistry between us" or (a white lie if you never have to see them again) "I've fallen for another guy, and we just made it official so I can't see you any more" or the all time classic "I like you as a friend" or "I like you, but I don't think we have very much in common. It doesn't look like it's going to work between us and I don't want give you the wrong idea" I've used all of those and they worked pretty good. Make sure you do it early on, or they get mad because they feel you've strung them along. That's why it's a good idea to let them know you're telling them for their own good, so they don't waste their time when there's just no chemistry between you two. I hope this helps. Good luck :)

act dumb.
its worked with me several times. the guy proably thinks im a complete idiot because he's made very hinty hints and ive been like.. huh? lol.. just act like u dont know whats going on and also like ur not really into it..
there was once a guy who kept flirting with me and telling me i was sweet and blah and i'd just reply with a "haha" and it wasnt a flattered one either.. more of a pffftthh.. oh thats funny sorta thing.. worked on my boyfriend for 3 months until i gave into him hehehe but yeah..
i geuss it they propose u it makes it alot harder.. and with that, its alittle more serious so i think u have to be honest there.. it'll be hard depending on who the person is and how they'll take it but its the best way without hurting them or urself even more than u need to...

You must be straightforward. Tell that person something like, "hey, no offense, I like you and all, but I'm not looking for a relationship right now." Or, if you just want to be more blunt, say, "Hey, I'm really not interested in being anything more than your friend." Better off being honest, than leading someon on.

Let's see, heeeeeree we go-- Baby the time we spent together is great but I feel like something is not right in me. I need some time to find myself. Let's take some time apart and see what happens after a couple of weeks.
Then never call again.

Simply say Sorry , Sir. But why should I reject one , if he is more than 4th on that particular day, except the days I have periods. I enjoy it. I let others enjoy.

tell that person that you don't know them well and your not that ready yet. of course everyone wouldn't go out w/just any random person. it's is like saying no is a nice way.

Honesty is harsh sometimes but best. It is much better that leading someone on.

if you are not interested in this person you can express him or her in an polite manner and softly approach by saying no .
