Just Firends
There is this really nice guy who likes me and wants to go to the movies with me (he thinks I like him because I used to), but I don't really like him in that way, so how do I tell him I don't want to go to the movies and that I just want to be firends???
Thanks!!

ok so ive been in this situation wht u need to do is talk to him straight forward and say that you arent looking for aserious relationship right now. Thats a perfect thing to say because you arent being rude or mean but you are also getting you point across.

well i think you should tell him the truth and don't hold back if you do he will go farther

hey - okay, if i were in your situation, which i actually have been - this is what i`d do. go to the movies with him, have a nice time, but DO NOT let him get too close. Afterwards, you can tell him you had a great night, and that the two of you are going to be GREAT friends. If he looks confused or asks what you`re talking about, politely tell him you want to be friends first. If he totally slams you, then you have the right to tell everyone you know that there was never a relationship. - when i was in this situation i actually found myself falling for him. . .again. so you never know.
i hope this helps!

I think you should just come out of your shell, and tell him you only see him as a friend. Say it in a friendly way. Also, why don't you go to the movies with him, and make it a group trip, bring other friends, too! It would be fun. But don't go on pretending you like him, just tell him, face-to-face, that you only like him as a friend!
Hope I helped you, hugs and kisses

I think that you should just tell him, that you are sorry, but you just don't feel the same way he does about you! Also, tell him that you just want to be friends.

just tell him that your simply not interested.
and if you can go to the movies as "friends"
it would be more of a comfertable situation for you.

By all means, tell him you want to be friends if that's what you want. However, I frequently go to the movies with my friends, so it seems to me that you aren't actually seeking friendship here. I may be off-base, but I think you may be using "just friends" as a euphamism for "I don't want to hang out with you at all."
You can't sugar-coat a rejection. He deserves honesty. Instead of saying you want to be "friends", say something like this:
"I get the idea that you want a dating relationship. I'm afraid I just don't feel the same way, and I can't give you what you want from me."
That is really all the explanation you owe. It's honest and a decent guy will respect that. If he can't respect it, then he's not as nice a guy as you're giving him credit for, and you can tell him more directly that you don't care to spend time with him.
