How to turn him down (without crushing his heart)

This kinda geeky guy is obsessed with me. He gives me compliments and presents, and tells me how much I mean to him. It’s flattering but sort of creepy. I don’t like him, but I don’t want to hurt his feelings.


Dear Someone Get This Guy A Hobby,

I admire you for not wanting to hurt him, but your feelings are important too. If you think you’re being stalked, tell an adult. But if his attentions are more bothersome than threatening, be a little less friendly and avoid running into him. He offers you another gift? Say, “I don’t feel comfortable accepting this because I don’t want to give you the wrong idea.” Be sure you aren’t giving him confusing signals. It might ultimately be kinder to act lukewarm or aloof rather than polite and friendly. Age-old trick: Tell him about a new crush or boyfriend.

SORT: OLDEST FIRST | NEWEST FIRST
 

i found out my best guy friend likes me, hes in 8th grade and im in 7th. I sorta like him a little to. But i also like a guy whose in my grade, i like him alot. For my best guy friend its easy for me to be around him, and hes very funny and social (i dont like him because hes 'cute') But on the other hand, since im VERY VERY shy, around my other crush i can hardly say anything, i get butterflies, and for some reason i get this feeling in my chest whenever i look at him, hes also very shy, but hes also considerate, nice, silly, an AMAZING soccer player, and a straight A student. my friend says she's herd him talking about me to his best friend(aka: "lily looks pretty in blue" and "lily has a really beautiful voice") and i catch him looking at me alot. i like them both but idk which one to choose, who should i choose!

Okay so me and thisguy have been through everything together...he has liked me for five years aka since we met. I only lime him as a friend. And every year we are really hood friends at the beginning then he asks me out and we are awkward the rest of the year. I want him in my life, but not as a boyfriend. Any help? I have tried everything Frown thank you!

 

Hey girlie, tell him that. If you've been trying for five years and it isn't working out, it may not be a possibility. But be upfront with him this year and tell him that you don't like him in that way but you really want to continue to be good friends.

MOD MOD!
SO there is this new guy at my school this year; he is in two of my classes (same grade) and he is really cute! He seems really shy but at the same time really funny and outgoing.. if that makes sense! He takes my bus to. What should I do to introduce myself to him?? And strike up a good convo but show interest in him...?
Thanks! xoxox




Hey girlie,

Sit next to him on the bus one afternoon! Just introduce yourself and ask him how he's liking school so far; you can probably find a ton of other things to talk about once you start the conversation!

Last year I became friends with this guy and then like a month or so later he asked me out, but I so didn't like him that way so I told him I just wanted to be friends. Then he asked later if I was sure and I said I just wanted to be friends again he still liked me but he stopped asking

Thank you so much for this article!
This weird guy in my life is majorly crushing on me but I don't like him. I tried giving him a try, we went to the movies, but when he kissed me, we weren't caught up in any romantic moments. He literally asked me "Can we kiss? please?"
hahaha, that isn't going to work, dude. This really helped! (:
