Well the easiest thing you can do is LIE. Make up excuses not to hang out with them. Stuff like that. But what you SHOULD do is just tell the truth. Yes, you may come off as a jerk. But you wouldn't hesitate being his/her friend if he/she is nice as well, right? You get me? There must be a reason that you won't like to be that person's friend.

She doesn't have any friends? Wow, something must really be wrong with her. Why don't you start with that? Tell her why you find it hard to be her friend. Maybe then will she realize that she has to change a few things to gain friends.

If there is a reason then tell them what that reason is. Be honest.
"I have a hard time being friends with someone who mistreats me," for example.
