"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

So my friend told me that one of his friends thought that i was hot, and i agreed to meet up with them for coffee.

but i got to thinking, if im not interested in her, how could i let her know. i ask this because i dont want my friend to get upset at me for rejecting her, and dont want to mess up my friendship with him for that.
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You are asking how to let her know you are not interested!?

That is one thing that all of us here have at least done it once (or twice, or even several times) in the past.

:crazy:

Yep, just say, well it was nice to meet you, see you around. And leave it at that. Hopefully your friend is mature enough not to let something like this mess up your friendship. But who knows, maybe you'll end up liking her!
