You're not obligated to return anyone's affections. It doesn't make you a jerk to simply say no.
How do I spurn a girl's advances?
- Thread starter Ethros
- Start date
Hell, entire forums owe their long term success to late-night drinking and posting.
You mean TNZ?
I don't think you're a jerk either as you are being thoughtful about things.
If you politely decline 2 or 3 times, she'll get the hint. Unless she's crazy and you wind up in a bathtub full of ice without your kidneys, but that hasn't happened to me too often.
You really only get two chances at that, don't you?
Just 3 times for me. One time the girl was a little drunk and took the gall bladder instead.
This thread needs more tales of spurning.
Do you ever wonder how Fred got a hottie like Ethel without knocking her up?

"... and that's where the term galling came from..."
*rimshot*
Really want to spurn a girl's advances? Just come right out and say you were born with both sets of genitalia. And that you once killed a guy with a hammer. If one doesn't get the job done the other almost certainly will.
Some women like danger. Others like experimentation. But none of them like hermaphroditic homicide.

"What's your favorite episode of Star Trek?"
Agreed. He should show her enormous quantities of spurn! Its really the only way.
i think she'd probably appreciate it if you just said you weren't interested.
It took me a long time to learn how to say that--to just turn someone down in a positive, pleasant way. "I'm not really interested, but thanks for the offer," is probably the best way to go. That way you're not leaving any doors open.
If you're not into her, you're not into her. The most ethical thing to do in my opinion is to stay true to your feelings and be the decent person by turning her down with the (nicely-stated and reasonably vague-as-to-be-not-unkind) truth.
No! No!
It's..."What's your favorite Pauly Shore film? I have so many I can't narrow them down to just one!"
Right. You’re asking for advice on how to turn down a girl who’s interested in you? I’m afraid you just lost your geek cred.
Totally, I did it the Patrick Bateman way

"...you're just not terribly important to me."
I had to spurn someone once. I'm afraid I was so concerned with making sure the answer was absolutely clear that I over spurned.
"Absolutely not. I would never EVER even consider.."
