3. Make it About You, Not Them

Okay, so I know I just said don’t use clichés like “It’s me, not you”…but don’t make it about them either. Don’t say to someone, “I don’t like you because you smoke weed” or “I’m just not attracted to you” – even if those things are true. Pointing out someone’s faults will only hurt them more, so unless your goal is to hurt them, just be polite and say something like “I think we’d be better off as friends” or “We have different interests or goals that I think would make a relationship unlikely.” There’s no need to add tension to an already sticky situation by pointing fingers and making the other person feel like the bottom of your shoe.
