xluvinux answered Thursday December 30 2004, 8:21 pm: Try the classic "I just want to be friends." It's true, and make sure he knows how you feel about this. He might be hurt, but with time he'll get over it. Just remember to be there for him. =)
MakalahLea answered Thursday December 30 2004, 8:14 pm: Give him a call and ask him to meet you at a local eatery or mall so that you can talk (always do this in person, over the phone is just too cold) in an open place. Tell him the truth, that you made a hasty decision when he asked you out and after consideration you feel that you guys are just really good friends and to make it into anything more than that will complicate the friendship and possibly ruin the good thing that you two have going. Give it to him straight and he will respect the decision and you much more. Best Wishes! [ MakalahLea's advice column | Ask MakalahLea A Question ]
college101 answered Thursday December 30 2004, 8:12 pm: you already said the you would so you at least own him one date, just make sure that you are open with him and tell him that you did give it a chance but you would just rather be friends [ college101's advice column | Ask college101 A Question ]
