Girls, Have you ever felt bad when rejecting a guy?

[Anonymous]

I am going to reject a guy. We were pretty close. We kissed, went on a date and clearly liked each other. But I decided to let him go. I am feeling pretty bad about it and scared to tell him. I feel a bit sorry for him and I don’t know what his reaction will be like. Have you ever felt bad in this situation?

It's completely normal to feel bad about it, it's a natural human response if you've got empathy. You're thinking about how you rejecting him is going to affect him and that's compassion. Just be honest with him as to your reasons why, and try not to be too blunt about it. Rejection happens to all of us, the rejector should just always be mindful of the other person.

Yeah. I’ve been in that situation but I usually cut it off before it gets too serious. I don’t want to lead people on or give them mixed signals.
May I ask why you are going to reject him if you like him?

If the guy is nice I've always felt bad.
