    It's really hard to say bluntly that you have no interest in him.

    Anyway, I know in the past a lady who said she would rather hit her head with a stone rather than becoming a gf of a certain guy but later on they eventually got married and living happily.

    Why not say you can just be a friend to him for the time being and later on say "No" when you meet your dream boy.

    I had a moment where I stared at your question and wondered "did I write that?" (I'm really tired) because that's exactly what just happened to me! A close guy friend of mine came right out in a long, elegantly written email and explained all of his feelings for me, which came from out of nowhere in my mind! Apparently he's been feeling this way for months and months...I'm in the same boat. I'm scared because I don't want to ruin our friendship, but I also know that I wouldn't be being a good friend at all if I didn't tell him the truth (I don't have those feelings for him). I'm going to give myself time to think things through and write my thoughts out, then I'm going to give him the scoop in a very gentle way. Sure, he'll probably be dissapointed, but if I'm careful, he shouldn't be hurt. Hope it works out for you too!

    Say it nicely. The truth hurts enough..but better to know the truth then get back at you later and have him say something stupid like you led him on which is deffinately not true.

    It may hurt him, but its better in the long run.

    Is it a random guy? If it is- say "sorry" and walk away. But if your question is in all seriousness, meaning you KNOW the guy:

    "I'm sorry but I don't want a boyfriend as of now."

    "Sorry, but I don't feel the same way about you."

    "Is it okay just to be friends?"

    "I like someone else"

    Good luck!
