turning down guys
I'm really picky about the kind of guys I date, so when a guy asks me out, there's a good chance I'm going to turn him down. The thing is, I'm so bad at it! I either 1) panic and say yes, even though I don't mean it or 2) make up an excuse and hope he doesn't find out the truth or 3) ignore him and try to act like it never happened. It's so awkward & embarrassing! What are some good ways of telling a guy "thanks, but no thanks" in a straightforward but not rude way?

There are lots of things to say...
*I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
*My parents have to meet everyone I date, so I'd rather not go through that process.
*No, I have other plans.
*That's sweet of you to ask, but I'll have to say no right now.

Being straightforward is as good as you can do. no matter what, if they like you, they will be upset. but its better to be upfront then to lead him on. a simple 'sorry i dont see you that way' will do fine. good luck mate!

Just say, "Im flattered you like me and I like you a lot, but I can really only see us being friends and nothing more. Sorry." or along those lines.
