Theres this guy that I think likes me, but I don't like him that way. What should I do if he asks me out or something? I don't want to hurt him (emotionally) because he is a nice guy, but I also don't want to be caught off guard and end up saying yes because I can't think of a nice way to say no.

Rejection is a part of life that nobody can avoid and pity dating can end up badly. Tell him that you think he's cool and everything, but add that you don't feel like getting into a relationship.

I suggest not telling him, if this is the case, that you are interested in someone else.
Perhaps say you don't know him well enough.
If this hasn't helped, you can leave a message in my inbox and I will reply right away as long as you provide more information as to why you don't like him.
