How do I get through to an extremely thick skinned bloke that I am NOT INTERESTED! I have been as plain as I can without actually screaming 'BOG OFF!' in his face- I don't want to be quite that rude, as he is actually pleasant enough. Anyone got any foolproof lines that will get him to twig- please?!

I wouldn't bother with 'fool proof' lines. It sounds as if nothing but the truth that you aren't interested in him will filter through. As long as you do it in a sensitive manner then just tell him you don't have those sorts of feeling for him. It isin't your fault you don't like him in that way and they sooner you let him down gently the sooner he can move on.

Just tell him.

no lines, no hints.

Just "I am not interested in you"

If he tries again tell him he is harrasing you and you will go to the police.

Just tell him "I am not interested in you, and never will be.

Don't wait for him to twig, unless you tell him straight he will keep trying, in the hope that you will change your mind.
