It happens that a guy is good to everyone: he is cute, looks after beautifully, is smart, etc. But you cannot order your heart - butterflies do not flutter in the chest, there is no tremor in the body. How to gently tell a guy that he does not evoke a reciprocal feeling? In order not to offend a person, you should be as delicate as possible.
Many girls hope that feelings will wake up a little later, and continue the relationship. However, in the event of unjustified expectations, parting will be doubly painful.
If you are not in a state of reciprocal love, say it directly, without hints, but carefully choosing your words. For example: “I am flattered by your attention, but I have only friendly feelings for you. We can continue to communicate at this level or leave before it's too late."
It's worth noting that guys hate being held as a fallback. If you are 100% sure that this is not your person, let him go in search of new love. It is also not worth mentioning which guy is good, and for some reason you do not like him. Such behavior is regarded as a manifestation of hypocrisy or pity.
How do you tell a guy you don't like him? Top 5 phrases that you definitely shouldn't say:
1. "Let's stay friends." You offer only one option for the development of events, and then it is convenient only for you. According to polls, 53% of guys between the ages of 19 and 27 hate this phrase.
2. “You chomp when you eat,” etc. Listing the shortcomings, however, as well as the imaginary advantages, is unacceptable, because you do not know each other well enough to judge categorically.
3. "I love another guy." And, in fact, why then all this farce, if there is someone else on the horizon? 34% of guys note that this phrase characterizes the girl as frivolous, flirting with everyone.
4. "My mom is against our relationship." A ridiculous excuse, which in most cases is perceived as a lie.
5. "I'm not ready for a serious relationship yet." Again, the girl's superficiality is evident, her unwillingness to perceive the world in real colors.
The best way to tell a guy that he is not loved is to tactfully express all your feelings out loud and give him the opportunity to decide what to do next.
