I have a guyfriend that wants to start a relationship with me but I dont like him in that way. How do I say no nicely and still be his friend? Is this even possible?

Tell him you are both on seperate paths and probably looking for different things. But make sure you let him know that you value his friendship and that you hope he will be there for you, as a good friend. Tell him you wish him the best and that you'll always be there for him, as a friend.

In my opinion i think that it is possible but it depends on how long you have been friends and what your friendship has involved and stuff like that. How long has the friendship been... how long has he liked you. If you don't think that a relationship would work than just say i don't think that we should be more than just friends because imagine what would happen if the relationship didn't work out what would happen to the friendship. Explain to him, maybe in the end you'll realize that maybe it could work out or maybe he'll realize that your right. You don't know you just have to take the next step hoping that everything will work for the best. All i can say. hope i helped. Anna

I have a guyfriend that wants more, but I turned him down because I didn't like him taht way. If he wants more, then let him down slowly, saying: I'm sorry, but I don't want a relationship with you, only friends. And if he gets depressed, then say: Well I'm sorry, but if you stay avalible, we might be able to have a relationship. If he buys that...he probably is kind of stupid. (lol j/k)

THis is what I did. I told him that I didn't deserve him and think we work best as friends. I don't want to ruin the friendship and I do adore him and maybe someday we could make that leap but as for now I'll just hurt him. I'm sorry, but definatly ask again later! If I'm smart I'll change my mind someday. *akward giggle to lighten the mood*Leave it at that. Totally works. See you can still be friends after that.

If he's rather your pal you will desire to no longer have humiliated him in front of the college via being so against the rumor. what's the large deal ? Play it off and have exciting with it, those close to to you comprehend if he's relationship you're no longer, purely consult from him and permit him comprehend to no longer unfold rumors and you like him as a pal. submit to in techniques you do no longer would desire to function stress in your self approximately what human beings think of, maximum folk do no longer think of.

It's hard to be friends with someone, when one of them have feelings for the other person.....Just be honest with him, I'm sure that with time he will thank you for your honesty.....Tell him how you feel, and tell him that you don't want to hurt him, but you would prefer to just be his friend......Just be as honest as possible and if he truly cares for you he'll understand you....And if he doesn't want to be your friend after that......Don't feel bad, probably it will be cause it would hurt to be around you with the feelings that he has for you!!

So just give him some space until he falls for someone else, or until he realizes that it is possible to be friends.....Good Luck

It happened to me, and I just told him straight out, your my friend and I want to keep it that way. It got to the point where i started to avoid him because he made me feel uncomfortable
when ever he was around. It hurt his feelings but he got over it
and started liking someone else.By me telling him he knew he
was just wasting his time with me,we are still friends.

i know EXACTLY how you feel i am in the same exact position as you right now...first try sitting down with him and telling him exactly how you feel. tell him that you like him but not the way he wants you to and you just want to be friends and no more than that..if that doesnt work, its probably best to distance yourself from him let him get over you...good luck

Maybe... "I dont feel tat i am ready for a relationship just yet." Or you could lie and say you are in love with someone else...bt dont do tat, unless you are reli desperate!
