I have this ex-girlfriend, ok? And see what happened is she just broke up with the guy that she broke up with me for. And I'm kinda worried that she might try to go back out with me just because I'm their and I'm familiar. Plus we also were lightly flirting last time we were together, which was about a month ago so I think I'm safe. What should I do to let her know, without a doubt, that I won't get back with her now, but do it lightly so it's not really noticeable?

way #1) "you speaking," _________ , i think we are just better off as friends then bf/gf, do uk what i mean?
Way # 2) Leave her a note saying that even though she is a great person, that you two would be better off as friends than a couple.
MELiixMARiiE answered Thursday July 7 2005, 11:42 pm: Well the one thing is: Don't flirt with her at all. Even lightly flirting. Cause she might take that as a hint that you ARE interested in her. And if she does try to make a move on you or something just be like," Look, I'm sorry.. but all I want to be is friends..". Or maybe try asking another girl out ( that you like of course!! ), cause then she'll definetley know then that you don't like her like that ( otherwise you'd ask her out..) and that she can't really flirt with you or anything because you're taken. Hope I helped!!

eLiSe answered Thursday July 7 2005, 4:37 pm: You could ask about her ex-boyfriend and if she's ok and everything and ask her why she broke up w/ him. Maybe she did it for her own reasons, not bc of you...but if it was bc of you she prolly wont admit it but if she does you could just tell her that it really means a lot to you but you think it would be awkward for the friendship to get back together again! ok well hope I helped!

karenR answered Thursday July 7 2005, 3:58 pm: She can't go out with you so long as you say no. I think you just tell her that your glad your still friends (if you are!) and how you wouldn't want to go through a break up like that with her again. You could ask some other girl out on a date. Or, if she just isn't the type to take a hint, you just tell her straight. Sorry, but I like you as a friend only and don't want dating to mess things up. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
Anthony_d answered Thursday July 7 2005, 3:18 pm: The best thiong to do? Back off. Don't get involved with her as much and don't like make an effort to see her. Like if she calls you say you're busy. If you want it to be the most down to earth way to make sure she understands. Tell her straight.
Hope i've helped,

Sammerz619 answered Thursday July 7 2005, 3:16 pm: Well next time you talk to her try not flirting and acting buddy-buddy. Act like you guys are friends and what not. If she does ask you back be like * im really sorry but i dont care about you that way anymore, i was hoping we could stil try to be friends.* If she keeps bugging you just tell her you really only wanna be friends and shes not helping! Well i hope i helped a little...Sammerz [ Sammerz619's advice column | Ask Sammerz619 A Question ]
