vocabulary 890 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I like him as a friend. He seems like a really nice dude. We're in the process of getting to know each other. We're nearly friends, but not friends yet. The thing is I know he's interested in me as a potential girlfriend but I only want him as a friend. He's very sweet and puts in the effort for me. He's honestly really nice, but I do think he's interested in me for superficial reasons... What should I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

localshadyhoe 352 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Been there done that, hunny don't. At some point he will try to openly flirt with you and it's gonna be a pain in the ass you will feel uncomfortable but by then you guys will be friends so you won't know what to do....ect ect save yourself the pain plus if you become friends he might think you are leading him on which is also not fair to him.

B612 22,399 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 better not start anything when you know he wants more than friendship, it can get awkward later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CamCam 1,874 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Nope nope nope. You will only be setting yourself up for heartbreak, and potential jealousy. Save yourself the hurt, and go hang out with friends that already care about you for YOU, and not just your looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grape Soda 12,004 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 let him know you dont like him straight up. If you like someone else try to slide that into a conversation so he really gets it. but honestly if thats his intention thats going to stay his intention, so its best you let this go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyeonandOnly 385 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I think it's best if you don't...cos you acting friendly with him would make him think that you're interested in him just not completely certain yet even after you made it clear that you want to be friends only..not to mention, other people would think you're leading him on and taking advantage of him..been there done that...

taigemei 1,375 Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 i've been in both sides of this story and tbh it's better not to at least for now maybe in the future, when he's over this crush, you can be good friends but for now it'll be awkward for you and probably painful for him :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's honestly really nice, but I do think he's interested in me for superficial reasons... What should I do? No, just don't entertain him. Don't make any effort in telling him his sweet with his gestures or just ignore the fuck out of him. If you don't like him then just say so. As a guy, i have been there and been done that. It is much better to know it earlier in the game that you are just friends rather than just wasting time and emotion on something that doesn't really like you. Don't make it messier than it already is for the both of you. Cut it off early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93_L 75 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 If you think that he'll make a good friend, I suppose why not. But do make it clear that you just want to stay as friends, nothing more. If he's still persistent in wanting more than that, leave asap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been in this situation back then xD It was really awkward and complicated at some point >_> He gives me the looks and lots of embarrassing moments happened.

noctua 1,866 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Went under the same situation, now four years later we're bestfriends. I just told him I wasn't interested in having a relationship with him, but regarded him as good friend and hoped we could still talk to each other. He said that it was ok, he also enjoyed talking to me so he wanted to keep doing so, but he needed some time for himself. He came back a few months later and we kept talking, went out a few times and we ended up as BFFs. One year later he found a GF (they broke up, but whatever) and now I help him with the girls he flirts with, lol. So, just tell him. Be honest. After doing that, there's not much you can do, it's gonna be up to him to accept being just your friend, or preferring to stay away from you.

리�윤 2,648 Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 just be friend with him is okay because you don't know what happen next. eventually he will ask you out, n if you still want him as a friend only, then tell him that. if he go away than he do not deserve to be your friend, if he stay, then he will be one of your precious friend. there's a few girl which asked me out ended up as my friend. n a girl that i asked out ended up as my best. no one knows what will happen in this world tho.
