Rejecting a guy? No problem!
Sure, attention from a suitor can be flattering but you’re just not seeing yourself committed to him.
Be honest and direct to him; leave no room for misinterpretation, because apparently, guys tend to misread a friendly gesture. Here are some tips to reject a guy BUT NOT break his heart:
1) Apologize if you've given him the wrong impression or led him on in any way. Let him know that you appreciate the attention but you aren’t available for a romantic relationship yet.
2) He should not feel like trash at your rejection. Instead of giving out personal comments about him, tell him you’ve enjoyed meeting him BUT you’re just not interested in seeing anyone right now. Explain that you're busy with work, school, or extracurricular activities and that you won't have time to talk.
3) If he still pursues you, display subtle clues. If you’re both employed in the same company and work in the same department, allow him to overhear you tell a colleague about a new guy you met or a rekindling romance with your ex. If he’s in your social circle, make sure he sees you flirting with another guy.
4) When all else fails, set him up with an acquaintance or a friend. Assure him he would probably match with someone else instead of you.
If he persists in asking you out, just be firm and clear. Sooner or later, you'll get the message across.
