if someone likes you but you have no interest?

To me....
Honesty is the BEST policy. You should let them know.... |

Quick and honest is best.

are you interested in being their friend? Express your intent so they understand, that seems to work for me. And never mislead them, thats a killer. Whatever you do be honest... its the best!!
good luck!! |

Be honest but polite...
Honesty is the best policy. Tell her you don't feel compatable with her- and thank her for her time. |

Hi,
What I usually say, and it's true, is that I don't think we have that much in common. I find common interests and world views so much more important than great looks (although they're icing on the cake!) Karen |

"haha i just said "im sorry i dont like you" and said dont take it wrong"
OUCH! How can she take that wrong? "I don't like you" is TOO honest and quite hurtful. How about a more gentle approach? People's feelings are tender, you know. Nobody likes rejection. "I'm sorry, but I don't think we have much in common" keeps you both on the same level, not a put-down. Karen |

Ok I can take the hint......you don't like me

she was actually a douche about it and got all defensive "i never liked you" when she told me she wanted to go out with me yesterday. i hate how people become mean just because of rejection. i've liked this girl like 4 months and she said no to me and i'm still nice to her and friends

Just a bit of constructive criticism, but that wasn't very nice. You could have simply said, "I don't think this is going to work out, good luck to you" I agree with Karen, there are ways to handle a difficult situation, without hurting someones feelings. As for her reply, it's human nature to defend oneself. just my humble opinion.

yeah i am kinda inclined to agree with the other posters on this one..that was harsh dude. there are ways to tell someone that well for lack of a better way to explain it without saying it like that...kind of in an effort to cushion the blow so to speak...but i guess to each their own.

oh well it's not like it really mattered if she mattered to me i would have worded and made it easier.

i would say:
thanxs for the interest, but i'm not interested. good luck though but most of the people know that i'm not interested as soon as they read my profile, that saves me a lot of time. |

be honest, but nice about it. you could say something like: "I enjoy talking to you, or you seem to be a nice person, but I just don't think we have enough things in common, I'm sorry."
It's rude to be mean to the person or to just stop talking to them all together. |

be gentle, but...ALWAYS honest

"oh well it's not like it really mattered if she mattered to me i would have worded and made it easier."
Everything is not always about you.....you don't need to go through life damaging peoples feelings. Have you ever heard of putting yourself in someone elses shoes?.....or karma? So what if you never see her again .....do you feel good knowing that you hurt her? I think that is just a really selfish and shiotty statment!! Shame on you!
