Kuebiko Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 step 1: drop hints that i'm not interested in people sexually or romantically. usually as a joke. any hints at romantic/sexual interest will be deflected with a joke or offhand comment that i'm not interested in people that way, or feigned ignorance. step 2: tell them that i'm not interested in them that way, and will never be. this step is usually taken after a confession has been made, or if their hints are becoming too pressing to ignore. usually starts with a "i realise that you're interested in me but...". it's not easy, but i'd rather tell them explicitly and in no uncertain terms, so that if they still continue to press interest, i can be sure that it's not my fault for making myself clear enough. step 3: avoidance. if they still want to approach me with sexual or romantic interest despite what i've said, or even convince me that i hold some suppressed interest in them, them i'll go out of my way to avoid them.

Nylocke Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Gotta either come out and tell them or just fall back completely. I find that I end up having to cut a person loose for such things because for some people its unhealthy to maintain a friendship with someone you'll never have a romantic chance with.
