What do you do when a close guy-friend likes you but you don't feel the same way (Be guilty of friend-zoning? )

We've only been close friends for about 1 year and he is making it super obvious that he's interested and I just don't see him that way. I am terrible at rejecting friends and I have no idea what to do/say to keep the friendship.

Is This A Good Question? (3)

    My guy friend like that called me last night and asked me to go on a date with him to the movies. I said of course we will go but it won't be a date. He knows how I feel and knows when he persists that I distance myself. We remain friends and he cooperates for the most part. Sometimes I think of dropping our friendship because he can't keep his comments and behavior under control. I don't want to lose him as a friend. We are the best karaoke team too. So when it gets strained I take a break. In time, things smooth over and we're back to buddies again. It's a bit of a roller coaster but life is about compromise.

    dear, if you do not like a person `that way` tail him directly. for the sake of friendship do not loose u r self. if he is your great friend he will understand and respect your say. that`s it. if he is going to break fs than no matter. because this type of friendship does not have any meaning.

    just don`t give him many signs to approach u . keep a distance between u two and let him know his place in ur heart as just a friend not a lover and u can set him up with one of ur friends or coworkers then he will know that u only think of him as a friend and telling the truth only comes when u r out of options because if u did it will be uncomfortable u two being in the same room

    Friend zoning is a new expression for me. What does it mean?

    You need to tell him that, while you love him lots, you don't see him as anything more than a good friend. That puts the ball in his court, and he can do what he wants about it.
