How do you tell someone you don't like them back?

I was recently asked to prom by one of my guy friends, and assumed it was one of my other friends setting me up, as they had joked about doing so.

As it turns out, he asked me to prom because he really likes me, but I don't feel the same way about him; my accepting the invitation to prom convinced him that I like him too.

Being around him now is really awkward for me, and if I try to avoid him, he shows up wherever I go.

What the heck am I supposed to do? I really don't want to hurt him, but I don't want to get into a relationship that wasn't meant to be and have us both hurt. Please help.

    tell him that your not ready for a relationship at the moment.

    or tell him that you just want to stay friends.

    You Make Sure That You Speak To Him Privately About It An Calmly Whatever You Do Make Sure It Doesn't Sound Like Your Trying To Treat Him( Talk About Him Wrongly) Try Saying Some thing Like " You Know We Have Been Friends For A While But I Just See You More As My Rock, My Best friend, My Go To Guy. I Wouldn't Want To Screw It Up By Getting To Serious "
