I need your help!

I need mostly girls help with something, but guys can tell me what they think too.

So there has been this girl who has liked me pretty much forever. I have/had no interest in her ever. I hadn't talked to her in a long time, but yesterday she texted my phone. The bad part is that I had lent one of my friends my phone for the day because he didnt have one and needed one. Apparently, he responded to her and led her on a ton. I had no idea until today when I got a text from her today saying "I am excited for Saturday!"

Now, my question is, what do i do? I don't like to lie to girls, but i only have a few options. I could tell her what happened, but I am afraid this would get her way sad. Second, I could make up something about a reason why I can't go out with her. I think this would be a gentler let down, but i don't like to lie. Third, I could go with the worst, but probably most effective route and go out with her once and act annoying so she doesn't like me at all anymore. Or fourth, I could go out with her once, get through it, then tell her I just didnt feel anything.

Let me know what you think, or if you have any other options. Thanks

 

First or fourth are your only real options. I would go with the first option if I couldn't stand her (telling the truth) ... but I would say combine the first and fourth option. Tell her the truth, and if she takes it too hard, say you can keep the plans for Saturday, and promise yourself it won't develop into anything

 

Trust me, she bothers me so much. I am open to saying I am somewhat of an elitist when it comes to intelligence and to be honest, her lack of intelligence bothers me to the highest degree because she is ignorant on top of it.

So far, 2 votes for be honest.

 

That being the case, go with honesty
And Junior, congrats on level III

 

I am bumping my board since it is in spam corner haha

 

:lol: elitist of intelligence.. that cracked me up. Well if she bothers you that much, I say be honest. And this is coming from a female perspective. I've had guys "go along with it" just because they didn't want to hurt my feelings, but in the end it hurt WAY more knowing that whatever's happened has been a lie and they don't actually feel the same way. I'd cut it off before it goes too far. If you haven't really talked or seen her in awhile, I'd keep it that way. Explain to her what happened and that you're sorry your friend did that, but you don't feel comfortable going out on Saturday. I'm sure she'll get her feelings hurt, but not nearly as much as if you go along with the plan and then just dump her afterwards. Just save her the time and anticipation.

 

Thanks, that is really what I wanted to hear, especially from a female perspective

 

You're very welcome! Glad my failed past love life can be of some assistance XD
