This shouldn’t even be a question girls have to ask but the patriarchy has society all fucked up so I’m gunna give it to you straight. Just say no. You don’t owe him anything. You don’t owe him your kindness. You don’t owe him an excuse as to why you’re not interested. Teach him the meaning of no. Teach MEN the meaning of no. If he asks why, say, “because I don’t want too” or “because I’m not interested.” Leave it at that. Watch how fast that shuts him up. Remember: YOU DO NOT OWE MEN YOUR BODY, YOUR TIME, OR YOUR ATTENTION. You do not need to beat around the bush or tip toe around a “no” because you don’t want to hurt his feelings. He is not a child. You are not depriving him or taking away something that was his. You are yours. Masculinity is fragile these days but that doesn’t mean you have to cater to it. Just say “no.” Say “I’ll pass.” Say “I’m not interested.”
