You know I said to myself "Hey, you're a happenning kind of guy, why don't you answer this girls question?"
Since there are so many different types of guys, who are more than willing to give you a varity of presistent responses to your rejection of them, you may need to develope a variety of techniques for turning them down.
Anything from the nicest way to the more firm way to perhaps a more rude way. It may be different strokes. And be honest, truthful about why you are saying no.
Should all else fail, "Get lost creep" is tried and true and ready for you.
If you can hone in on a concrete reason why not just be direct: "...you know, this isn't working for me because I think you and I have very different ideas about XYZ, for example, the other night when you....." etc.
Good points, thanks. Most of the time guys aren't too pushy but lately I've had some that are just intrusive/obsessive & I'm trying to maintain my cool. I'm finding that sometimes it doesn't pay to be nice.
What's wrong with being supportively honest? "I appreciate and am flattered that you've expressed interest in me; but my preference is to keep things just as they are."
You don't have to explain yourself. You don't have to keep in contact with the individual.
Just flatly set the boundary. It's a good life skill to have.
What's the best way for a woman to turn a guy down without coming off as a bit@h?
Always have a hard time with this; any suggestions?
Are you turning him down because you're not interested, or are you turning him down because you're interested but not available when he wants to get together?
If it's the latter, say you can't get together then, and then propose something else or another time. And be specific as to the day/time, otherwise it sounds like a blowoff.
If it's the former, thank him for asking, and say you're not interested in him romantically, and hang firm with the decision. And don't make it ambiguous; if he thinks he has a shot, he'll try again, which ust prolongs the agony for both of you.
You don't owe him anything but respect and common courtesy.
