Everyone goes through rejection, heck even you will, probably more than once, it's just the way things go.

Tell her how you feel, but don't be ignorant. Basically I'd use the "I'm not looking for a relationship right now" excuse, and go on from there. I think she'll fall for that

I'm sure since time has passed since the initial thread that you've already done some work on this situation, but you can still use this and other posts as "future reference"

If your not attracted to someone then theres no way that you can even try and give them a chance. Being attracted to someone makes a huge difference so just tell her shes a nice girl but you don't see a point in trying to date her when you cant see yourself with her.

I'm clearly form another generation , much older than yourself and female. I say if you'd like to see a movie and let her down lightly then accept the invitation with the very huge "just as friends" My daughter had an issue in high school where she was flattered by a young guy's attention, but decided that she liked him as a friend only.She came to me for advice. I asked her do you have anyone else that you like as a boyfriend, and once she said no I suggested that she tell the guy the momentary truth that you do not want a boyfriend right now. I advised her that she was under no obligation to take someone on as a love interest just because they felt that way about her. As long as she did not embarrass the person with such a statement then immediately begin hooking up with someone then all will be well,and it was for her.The young man took the news in stride

TELL HER STRAIGHT OUT that shes not your type don't be nasty about but just make sure shes clear of this

Letting Someone (\\\"friend\\\") you don\\
Telling Somone You Dont Like Them

There's this girl that is a part of my circle of friends at school that I've come to dislike immensely. I find that I have to either not hang out with my friends or tolerate her derogatory comments toward me.

I think she believes that we're friends, but I can't stand her. Is there a way to let her know that I don't consider her my friend?

How Do I Handle This??
Telling Somone You Don\'t Like Them

Replying to callumwell how do you tell someone that you don't like them cause I know a girl I really don't like and I cant tell her and its hard cause she is popular and she will probably make fun of me and I don't want to be made fun of! And I also thought that maybe if I was nice to her and she may like me and tell people a good comment about me. And how do you ask a guy to be truthful if they are cheating on you because I know someone who's boyfriend may be cheating on her and she is one of my best friends and I REALLY don't want him to be cheating on her!!:D:D:D:D And 1 more thing I promise my last thing how do you handle a person cheating off your paper in a class when you aren't around! thank you please answer all my questions!

I suggest getting to know her. Try to do it without her thinking you're leading her on. It can End disastrously. Trust me, it's happened before.
I've had girls like me and at the time didn't feel the same way and I closed the door by telling them they weren't right for me and such. Later as I got to know them I started liking them for who they were, I was too afraid to tell her how I felt, and she has become one of those 'What if?' girls that I think about sometimes.

Look past her imperfections and be a bit deeper. Some girls might not be 'classically beautiful' but they are great people who you would want to be with once you get to know them.
