My friend Steve* asked me out about three weeks ago. we've known each other since last year and my friends tell me that he has liked me since. I went to a concert with him and other things like ice skating and movies. I never really had feelings for him and when he asked me out, it was so sudden and surprising that I couldn't say no..I should have though; it would have made this situation a lot easier! We already kissed and held hands outside of school but I just can't do that in school. I don't think it's because I'm not comfortable with the whole boyfriend thing, but if I really had feelings for him I would act different. And everyone asks me if we're dating and my friends seem happier than I am. When I see him in the hallways I get that nervous feelings. Not the butterflies head over heels thing, the awkwardness. And Whenever i hear about a couple in school only lasting a week or two, it's really annoying. But know I understand why. I want it to last longer than a month but it's Obviously not good if I keep worrying about this every night. I'm happy when I'm with him, but it's totally different. I don't know what to say that will let him down easy and when to do it. I know this is long and probably boring for most of you but I really need the help. Please and thank you!!!

The main thing is to be honest with him and also yourself. If you have no romantic feelings for him, tell him so. You may also tell him that you can remain friends, if you want. The main thing is to be honest. You will feel much better about yourself. Good luck and God Bless............

Thanks so much guys for the advice. It helps to hear the truth instead of what i want to hear.

You need to let him know NOW that theres nothing there. It's not fair to you or him to let this relationship keep going on as a lie.
It may hurt him now but not as much as it will if you keep waiting and letting him get more attached.
Good luck, breaking up can be hard to do.

I think that if you don't really like him, you should probably let him know that. It seems that he really likes you, so you should probably let him down very easy. It doesnt seem fair for you to keep dating him when you dont like him though.
