Nice way of saying 'no'

This guy ben who is 3 inches shorter than me always wants to hangout and do stuff but im not really into guys that are shorter than me, but at the same time hes sweet and VERY attractive. haha. He doesnt care that im tall but I dont know I think it'd be...

weird. So whats a nice way of saying no to him when he asks me to go out and all that.

just tell him that you do not want to ruin the friendship and it is better just to stay friends because once you cross that boundary you might not think it was what you thought it would be and than your friendship will never be the same

u are still attracted to him, but his shortness just kills it a litte for you. It seems like you kinda like him. now I understand that three inches shorter can be awkward, but what if he does grow and you want him then, what if you lose all your chances. Just give him one chance I say, and if your not missing anything, tell him you think of him like a brother, and it would just be too weird for you.
