For me, leading one on or keeping them in a state of confusion is a much worse kind of hurt.
"I am flattered, however, I do not have that sort of vibe with you." At this point, one can not approach her again but one can wave and behave in a way in which she does not feel like a pyorrhea. And, if she approaches you again then recognize you might have a crushing friend for awhile.

Honesty. It may hurt in the moment, but at least it shows you're respecting that person. I would probably be able to tell if it was an excuse, and just feel pathetic.
Excuses lol saying I’m busy, already have plans or something of that sort.

Saw that she's the sister of a friend and I guess you can use the bro code excuse, unless you're not into her but would totally date another sister of another friend. Then just say you're not interested.
politely tell them that you’re not looking to go on any dates with them. If its just a friend wanting to go out socially tell them you’re not in the mood to go out and feel you need a night to yourself?
How well do they know you? In any case be kind.
Just say no Thank-you, like they offered you a glass of water.
Tell them you're not interested and don't see them that way as respectfully as possible.
Just be honest about it and tell the truth in a polite way.
Just say your not interested. Unless someone else is on your mind. Then its better to lie.
I'm sorry but I'm not interested.
Not interested. That's it.
