Saying you're not interested nicely (42)
Oh my...if you are lucky...maybe he does read the forums...
I know it's hard, I can't hurt peoples feelings either...
however maybe you could say somethign like you are flattered by his interest but you are currently chatting to someone and are waiting to see where that might go ...

I do the same, find something in their profile and say thank you but I don't think I am what you are looking for, good luck.

I feel like I am being rude if I don't mail back. If someone mails me they at least deserve a response. Then I go from there.

Again, I do try to respond and what is wrong with being honest?
In other threads, I posted the same thing....just tell them you are not interested and if they continue to persist, block them.

There is a flower you can send that says, "thank You For Your Interest but I Wish No Further Contact"...

i think thats the only thing you can do realy,ive only realy come on this site to make friends and i always tell people first that i only want friends,but if this guy only wanted to be friends would you still block them, or has he made it clear that he wants moor?

Thank you for all of your suggestions. I may use them all in the future but in this case I think I am going to go with this one since it is the honest truth.

Honesty is always the best course of action.
If I asked out a women I liked and she told me frankly - "It's kind of you to ask me out, but you are really not my type", Personally, I would respect her for that and leave her alone. After all we can't help who we are attracted to.
However, do nothing, or make out you are currently seeing someone else etc, will suggest to this chap that perhaps he is in with a chance, if he hangs on in there.
This situation is no good for either of you.
Nip it in the bud!

Tell you'll date him after you rash goes away.

Take my word on it. Just block them. It's not "hurting" anyone's feelings. It's not being rude. It's getting rid of additional uncomfort, and allowing yourself not to worry about it.

You say he sends you several msgs a day. Do you read them? If he's sending them to you via CS email he can tell whether or not you are opening them. If he sees that you are opening them he may think that you're at least listening to what he's saying. If you aren't even opening them and he continues to send more then he just can't take a hint. Block him!
I also agree with Lené, that flower that say's "Thanks but I wish no future contact" is great because it's less personal than an email, and doesn't beg for a reply, and it gets the msg across.
If he repsonds with an email after that, I'd read it and hope to see like a final "Thanks & goodbye". If it is a continuation of advances then blocking him is totally justified at that point.
In fact, you don't need any justification for blocking anyone at any time.
But now that I know you're so easy and you can't say no I think I'll start sending you love letters.
You do know that I'm crazy about you do you not?

Good one George, I would have never thought of that.That's a good one to use on women I want to get rid of! I'll just say my test for HIV came back positive but as soon as I get some meds I'll be right over!

Block him....and i would report him to the moderator of this site if he has harrassed you.

Actually, your thread title already says everything you need to tell him: "I am a lady and I try to be nice to everyone, but frankly, I am not interested in pursuing a relationship with you." If that fails then PM me with his ID and I'll do a 3rd degree "Kansas redneck" on him. ("Nobody dates my little sister, but ME!
)
Good luck, Kiddo!

Obviously ignoring him is not going to work. I know I can block him but I am just not that kind of person. Should I have to explain to somebody that I have never spoken to that I am not interested? How do some of you handle these situations? Do you just not answer people that you know aren't right for you or do you tell them you're not interested at the start.
