have you watched that movie how to lose a guy in ten days? well similarly, i have this office mate. a guy friend. and i only want him as a friend, but suddenly he has been acting strange lately, taking me out to dinner, and even texting me sweet messages. last night, he actually admitted that he has something for me.. a special feeling of love.. uggh! i hate it! i like him but i dont want him as a boy friend i dont want to lose our friendship because he is like a brother to me. what should i do? how will i say no to him by not hurting him? im afraid if i said no, or if i avoid his invitations, he will change and not be my friend any more... :(

Definitely don't avoid him. That may make him think you don't even value the friendship. The next time an opportunity arises, tell him that you are only interested in him as a friend. This will hurt him, so also let him know how much you value your friendship with him, and would not want to jeopardize that. But you have to be completely direct. Do not beat around the bush or he may get confused. I hope this helps!

It's better to tell him the truth that you don't want to be in a relationship with him as a boyfriend type thing because it could hurt your friendship.
