friendship coming to an end?


Question Posted Wednesday November 21 2007, 10:21 am

the otehr day one of my best guy friends brother told me that he liked me, not the brother. my friend. we get along really good, and we easily talk to eachother. but, he doesnt come off to me as a guy i would date. i mean, we get along great but i like our friendship and i dont want that to get ruined but i also dont want to hurt his feelings.
don't answer this by saying, "tell him you admire our friendship and dont want to ruin it by going out" i've heard that too many times and don't need to hear it again. i just need things to do or say to make him relize that were better off friends.
thanks in advance.

Honestly, the advice other people gave you is the probably the safest bet that you'll still be friends. However, if the friend hasn't told you himself that he likes you I wouldn't even worry about it right now. Now, when the guy tells you himself that he likes you then try telling him that he's like a brother to you because you're such good friends and you don't want to ruin it by dating him.

Well, that answer is the true answer. You don't want to beat around the bush about it, for certain.
Tell him the easiest way to lose a friend is to date one.
I mean, the truth is all you can say. He is your friend so he deserves your honesty.
No matter how you say it, he will have hurt feelings, but he will get over it. Better he has hurt feelings now than you date him and he ends up heartbroken.
