    How to turn a good guy down
    I haven't known this guy for long but he seemed sweet so I let him take me on a date. I had a good time but the attraction just wasn't there. I have a feeling he really is into me, however I don't feel the same for him. I know I could just be straightforward with him and tell him in not interested or don't want to be friends... but there hasn't been a situation where that would seem appropriate to say it...

    How do I not lead him on without having to ignore him... AND I have to see him every Monday nights for a class...

    Thanks for any advice

    Simple- you tell him the truth. Stop waiting for the 'appropriate' time, because the longer you wait the more this guy might think your into him. Especially if you have been responsive to his actions, even if it's just you being 'nice'. Being single myself, I have to start dating again, and I would SO much rather a girl just tell me "Hey, your a great guy, but I just don't think it would work between us." My response? "Thanks for being honest, take care". And I would respect that girl completely for telling the truth, and not leading me on. If we continue to be friends, that is up to the both of us/ you two.

    Better to be honest. The longer you wait, yes the harder it will get and be for him to deal with it.
