When someone says they like you or they love you, but you don’t feel the same. How do you respond or what do you say? (Page 2)

My now newly added cousin of 7 or 8yrs old apparently has that awkward crush thing for me I found out by her sister. Anyway been dreading this situation ever coming up through the holidays. Then there's been plenty of times I had to decline or avoid attention towards known crushes. All could've been better handled upfront.

[letuswaltzforthedead]

The last time that happened I just said "cool". It was awkward.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

"Thank you. I hope that's a brotherly/sisterly kind of love."

[PamelaRivers]

Not had it happen yet so not sure how I'd respond.

[OBubblesO]

I love you.

[exitseven]

I would say that I lie them but maybe not the way i was supposed to. One time i told this girl I loved her, she said i was crazy.

[mohammed93alaa]

I will say " ok , but i don't ! "

Of course it hurts, but it will be fast and once , its better than going around for days, and make the people hanging for while!!

[AddylynnNightingale]

I'll say "thank you" or "I know"

[Jamie05rhs]

I guess I would just tell them that I don't think of them in that way.

[Avatar74]

I would have to tell them the truth that I didn't feel the same. Although it may hurt them, I couldn't lead someone down the garden path and pretend I had strong feelings for them.

[JustiReno]

Set them up on a date with a police to serve then a restraining order 😒

[DancingQueen16]

I'd tell them I'm flattered but I just don't like them in that way

[andreasderjuengere]

My standard response is: ''Me, too''

I haven't gotten slapped for it until now :)

[Havthrills]

Kind of like the meme. Lol. Or "thank you," "aww that's sweet"

[AsaKyo]

I'd probably be flattered, but tell them I don't like them that way

[smilelots]

there is only one way to respond that is with the truth always be honest and sincere.

[TrillXHippy]

I don’t know how to respond or what to say to something that I rarely ever hear from a girl lol

[Smartman5]

I don't know, it's very difficult for me. I don't want to upset her, but if I don't like her, there's nothing me can do

[altaboy]

"I know."

Hey, it worked for Han Solo.

[Izza101]

My guy friend liked me and I told them “I’m sorry I don’t.”

[MrCage]

I would tell them the truth. I would never go with it cause that would cause way more pain to them.
