i would have to say to you question NEVER LEAD A GUY ON it will only hurt worse. you got to tell him how you feel. you need to tell that yuou like him only as a friend nothing else. dont try telling him that you like or even you want to go out with him unless you want to hurt him worse. hope this helps you out.

Under NO circumstances should you tell him you like him if you don't, or date him out of pity. Even if he is unimaginably depressed and is upset, you cannot lie to him just to make him feel better cuz in the longrun you will only be hurting him more and ruining the friendship you two have together. If he is your BEST friend he'll understand when you tell him you just enjoy him being there as a best friend rather than a boyfriend. Guys don't usually like hearing the horrible words: "LETS JUST BE FRIENDS". its like nails on a chalkboard to them, but in this situation, he's your best friend. It would be 100 times better to tell him how you feel and explain things to him. If he's really your friend, he'll understand and let it go, and appreciate having you as, at least, a friend!

Goodluck, hope i helped :)

You should say your truly sorry but you can't correspond to him and just prefer to be friends.But if he doesn't except this then you shouldn't be friends and just so he won't get hurt anymore.Or try to cheer him up find him a girl that will bring joy to his life if you still want his friendship and tell him that there are several girls out there waiting for him.Not only that he should find one who will have the same feelings for him.Be honest to him and tell him what I told you if he is nice he'll be able to accept this.Your friend needs some counseling to help cope with his stress.

Just be honest with him.

Tell him that he's your best friend & that you don't want anything to ever happen to mess that up & if you went out & ended up breaking up, things might change & you don't want that.

Since he gets depressed easily, tell him that there are plenty of girls who would be happy to go out with him to make him feel better. Then hang out with him not too long after telling him. That way he knows that nothing has changed with your friendship.

Hope I helped!
