I call him a kid but he's 20, and anyway, he's kind of mentally challenged and stuff, but I don't particularly like him, but he calls me ALL THE TIME! I seriously regret giving him my number, but he was new and looked kinda lonely so I thought hey give him someone to talk to, but apparently even though we have only seen each other once, he calls me all the freaking time and talks only about himself never lets me get a word in. And now I find out he likes me "more than a friend" and is sending me his love and care, and apparently all of his heart so he wrote in a message. Help?

Tell him he got the wrong impression. I'd be honest and tell him I'm not interested.

i have a mentally handicapped friend and he is aggrevating sometimes but im still his friend...have a heart man

Just do your best to let him down easy

Tell him upfront whats going on in your mind... thats the only way.

A car with a big trunk, a shovel, and about 4 hours of your time, that's all you need.

Yea tell him your not intrested, your bouncing like a bad check

I have! I even told him I had a bf thinking that would scare him away but he just called me later! gah! >.< It's just so irritating.

Honesty is always the best policy

Be straight forward with him. You put yourself in the situation because you felt bad for him. Now you are feeling bad for yourself. Don't pretend you are something you are not. If you don't particularly like him then you should have never played "nice girl" and gave him your number. I know guys that are like that without the handicap. Take better judgement in giving your number out.

you going to help me with that?

If the price is right.

That is really difficult...especially if he is really mentally challenged. They are so use to people just being mean to them that they often mistake kindness for love. It happens all the time. They are a couple of different ways you can deal with it, it really depends on how mentally challenged he is though. You can start talking about a certian guy your intrested in....even if there isn't any and maybe it will give him the impression that you no longer 'available'. Or you can just be honest and tell him you respect him as a friend but you like to be independent and need spaceand that he is coming off as needy...again it depends on how mentally challenged he may be. JMHO.

You should let him know what's up.

Just tell him "sorry I really do think you're a nice person, but my boyfriend doesn't appreciate me getting calls from random guys all the time"

ok update, he just called me and I told him I had a bf and he said ok, I thought I'd give it a shot, can we still be friends? then are you sure you don't want to? and I'm like yeah james I have a boyfriend and he's like so? ugh!

honesty is the best policy, and it saves you from an ugly meltdown when you are rude and mean to a person and just totally blow them off. Been there done that cried a little and moved on.

BREAK IT TO HIM GENTLY - Heart crusher... hehehehe!

No, I agree. I think people resepect honesty. They may not always like it, but just be honest. I admire anyone who doesn't just lead someone on. Good luck to you. He'll bounce back and will be fine.

Tell him if he doesn't stop calling your boyfriend is gonna call him or that he will break up with you because he thinks you're cheating and that you'll never talk to him again.

Let him know that if he doesn't back off that you are not going to be friends with him anymore or go change your number
