Obsession...with me?!
I feel positively idiotic asking a question about "love" but anyway. There is a guy at my middle school who I recently found out has a crush on me...a freakishly huge crush. We're friends, and I used to think he was just teasing when he make jokes about his "undying love" for me. To tell you the truth, it's kind of creepy. He's a great kid, but I don't like him the same way. How should I tell him without destroying a friendship?~ insanity_will_dominate

Tell him that you don't like him in that way, just as a friend, and maybe you could tell it creeps you out in a way if you want, but at least go out with him once to make him happy if you want.

Certain types of friendships are worth destroying. If he's weirding you out, maybe this is one of them.
Just remember that he feels differently about you than how you feel about him. So technically, it's not a friendship to him. It's trying to get you to date him. If he knows you don't want to date him, sure he'll be crushed temporarily, but it's a lot better than the permanent scar you can give him by leading him on... Even though you think it's a platonic friendship, he is secretly wanting it to be more. And, if he's creeping you out, I suggest maybe you let him know flat out that you're not interested. Hopefully he'll get the hint and move on without destroying the wonderful bond the two of you hold. Ahem.
