well, give the truth a shot. say thank you, i appreciate your interest, but i do not like you! and then illustrate the reasons: you're *beep*, you're annoying, you're phoney, shallow and vapid, or whatever happens to be the case. honesty, ekulu.

ekulu #1.1 ekuluOG 2002

but what if she's great? just not exactly the person you expected to feel that way about you?

fivezero #1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

refer to my above post. perhaps tailor your answer. implement kindness and tact if needed..

ekulu #1.1.1.1 ekuluOG 2002

hahaha

thefunkyfresh #1.1.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

so i guess beggers CAN be choosers!

fivezero #1.1.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

so, that also means that LOSERS, in fact, CAN be CHOOSERS as well

It usually never hurts to let the truth out. I say just tell them, as long as you can manage it in a nice way, because sometimes you might not want to alienate them.....

walkngplaygrnd walkngplaygrndOG 2003

I actually agree with you . . . by the way . . . I don't think this is going to work . . .

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

That's such a lie! The truth hurts, it just doesn't hurt as much as lying and then finding out later.

bozo #1.2 bozoFounder

*beep*.... i love it. .... and i am it.

bozo #1.2.1 bozoFounder

oops. *beeb* sorry

walkngplaygrnd #1.3 walkngplaygrndOG 2003

I'm going to have to go with 5-0 on this one . . . honesty is always the best policy . . . and though I've also been down the road of using girls . . . those are not my proudest days, especially if the girl is great . . . you especially don't want to ruin a good friendship with a lie . . . if you two are indeed friends . . .

thefunkyfresh #2 thefunkyfreshFounder

i could tell you what they tell me

bozo #2.1 bozoFounder

matt don't tell them what i said, that was said in confidence. ;)

Avoid all confrontation, move to another state.

reaf #3.1 reafOG 2002

ha ha, These comments are funny

bozo #4 bozoFounder

are you seriously going to break my heart again... i'm too fragile for this.

bozo #5 bozoFounder

Dispite all the excellent ideas, heres another one. Use Her. you can get her to do things for you, rub your feet, take out the garbage, mow the yard, and when your done say, "honey, i don't know if this is going to work out." and then laugh all the way to the bank

reaf #5.1 reafOG 2002

ha ha, if she's dumb enough to fall for it, go for it!

fivezero #5.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

man-o-man, guys! using girls is so...underrated..

reaf #5.1.1.1 reafOG 2002

ha ha, who are you , i dont beleive you use girls as much as you think you do , & that your so vocal about it!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Yeaahh, no. I'm joking. I don't use girls ever. It's a pretty heartless practice--to use girls and know it and talk about it. I'm not down with that, Reaf. I'm Brian. What's your name?

reaf reafOG 2002

Stef

bozo bozoFounder

and for the record, this all a joke.

skaorsk8 #6 skaorsk8OG 2002

you know what i think?? make a sidekick out of her. every guy needs a sidekick. someone to chip in for gas and tolls, someone to bring to parties so you dont' walk in by yourself. someone to buy the cds that that you're too poor to pick up, so you can copy them. if you get tired of her, just upgrade to a better model sidekick.

Adam, I've been in situations where I ended up not liking a girl that originally, I was the one to get the whole thing moving. I lost interest as soon as I gained hers. I never meant to be that way, but that's what used to happen. So I've had experiences similar to yours--where the girl liked me, and I didn't like them like that (any more). When I was a lot younger, I handled it completely wrong--I just avoided her, and stopped calling her back. BIG BAD MISTAKE! That's not how anyone should ever be treated. Talk to her. Be Honest. Besides, you never know, because things might change between you later on, and you might want to be with her.

ilikebirds #8 ilikebirdsOG 2002

punch her in the face. she should get the point. if not. you'll be in prison and you'll make new, bigger, and better girlfriends. but at least she'll be off your back.

esprit15d #8.1 esprit15dOG 2003

Or you could try to get her in jail.

reaf #8.1.1 reafOG 2002

ha ha ha ha ha

yoda #9 yodaOG 2003

what you could do is go with the old reliable...ya know... the christian politically correct answer...." Your very nice..." that right there is a clear indication that you don't like them... and if she needs more... tell her that your really not interested in dating anyone at this time..you dont feel its the right time...

hunkpapap #9.1 hunkpapapOG 2003

so let me get this straight, your opinion is not to lead them on and use them for attention? Ok, just checking...

yoda #9.1.1 yodaOG 2003

it called getting to know them .....................................................................(HI my name is Pat... nice to meet you.... i love you wanna go out with me and add to my psycho ex girlfriend legacy)

ballyhoo #10 ballyhooOG 2001

Take her out to an expensive restaurant. Order everything on the menu and say the world is our oyster baby. She orders lots. you eat, drink, have a good time. Then when the bill comes, take a dump on her plate and make a run for it. All the time screaming " I can't believe you fell for that, you stupid smelly gorilla!!"

Then call her the next day, apologize, and ask if she wants to start over. Repeat this process every night.

yoda #10.1 yodaOG 2003

i might be crazy... but that probably isnt the way to go..

ilikebirds #10.2 ilikebirdsOG 2002

dude.. you are definately NOT a stinking tree huggin hippie. that is the first comment on ezabel that had me laugh hard in awhile. i thank you sir.

ballyhoo #10.2.1 ballyhooOG 2001

you certainly are granted a kind welcome!

thefunkyfresh #10.3 thefunkyfreshFounder

i really like this idea. and believe me it works!

esprit15d #11 esprit15dOG 2003

I'm not sure if this has ever been used before, but you could say "Its not you its me."

skaorsk8 #11.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

hey, did you make that up???

esprit15d #11.1.1 esprit15dOG 2003

yeah, it came to me in a conversation...er...dream

walkngplaygrnd #11.2 walkngplaygrndOG 2003

somebody once said to me, "Its not me, its YOU" . . . needless to say, the emotional scars from THAT still haven't healed . . .

esprit15d #11.2.1 esprit15dOG 2003

LOL

reaf #12 reafOG 2002

Just say ( While your looking at her funny) "Umm No thanks, thats okay, but I hope we can still be friends" Then give that great big, how ya doing kid, smile!

ilikebirds #13 ilikebirdsOG 2002

or say " boo.. look at you.. and look at me.. i'm upp here.. you're down here.. you feelin' me ? it's just not gonna work boo. peace "

reaf #13.1 reafOG 2002

You come up with the weirdest things

starshiptrooper #13.1.1 starshiptrooperOG 2003

i love his sense of humor....he can get away with saying things in which i would get flambayed (spelled phoneticly) for.

ilikebirds #13.1.1.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

you kidding me.. i get "flambayed" everyday. just ask ian how many comments of mine he just shutters even thinking about.

ilikebirds #13.1.1.2 ilikebirdsOG 2002

and i'm glad you like my humor. not too many people do.

sugabluejennnie #13.2 sugabluejennnieOG 2002

And then you were beat senseless for calling her "boo"

ilikebirds #13.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

hey boo. relax.

sugabluejennnie #13.2.1.1 sugabluejennnieOG 2002

oh no dont call me boo... i am no one boo, baby girl, hot legs or any other cat call/ pet name you could think of...

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

ekulu ekuluOG 2002

this is a budding relationship. the warmth is just bubbling over

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

yea i can tell, wait till you say honey or sweetcheeks.... your gonna be in for it THEN!

rocksupastar #14 rocksupastarFounder

its never happened to me either, buuut, i can say, if you want to get outta it without a confrontation... you would probably stray away from anything that tai says...

ilikebirds #15 ilikebirdsOG 2002

ohh man i got censored again. once, shame on me. twice, shame on you. three times, nothing but a bunch of tree hugging hippies

ilikebirds #16 ilikebirdsOG 2002

well i know it might be hard to communicate back to the doll...it may seem that it's just staring at you and not listening. but... just try to tell it. " NO MORE !"

sugabluejennnie #17 sugabluejennnieOG 2002

eww someone likes you adam
who is it so i can slap some
sense into her... :-P

ok4now #17.1 ok4nowOG 2002

thatdarngirl #17.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

hahahaha that was so amazing! And even though I don't know your voice inflections or gestures or even know what you look like BUT i can just hear it being said and it sounded awesome.

thatdarngirl #18 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Adam, explain to her that you just don't feel the same way and you know that it may hurt to hear that but you didn't want to lie with her and just go along with it because that would be even worse.

thefunkyfresh #19 thefunkyfreshFounder

so adam howd this work out?

skaorsk8 #19.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

ilikebirds #19.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

skaorsk8 #19.2.1.1 skaorsk8OG 2002
