Hey guys, long time no talk. Hope you're all doing well.
I've got a bit of a unique problem, and I'm interested in your thoughts. Some of you might remember I asked about what to do about the fact I got roped into going to prom with someone I did not want to go with. I ended up just going with her, and even though I think I made it pretty clear that I wasn't interested in her, she's now pestering me to hang out with her. She's not attractive, she's annoying and awkward, and I'm not really interested in spending a lot of time with her. However, not only is she LSE enough that I'm worried about seriously hurting her feelings, but we also have a bunch of mutual friends. In other words, I don't want to pull the typical HB act and have her end up angry and brooding like an AFC would. She just sent me a message asking me if I wanted to hang out with her at some point during the next week. How should I respond to this?
In other news, I'm done with my junior year of high school, so I can finally start sinking back into pick-up.

Hey Man, lets look at your options.
You can be flaky and just say that your busy next week and avoid the hell out of her.
You can call her and be completely honest, say that your just not interested.
Another option is to tell her indirectly that your not interested. Yes...use the art of indirection and you wont have to tell her directly and risk hurting her feelings too much. Just make up some story that is very similar to the situation you are in with her and end it with the fact that you are not the kind of person that would date someone you have been friends with for a while. Tell her you believe in that love at first sight thing. Convince her that when friends date friends it is like brothers dating sisters. Do whatever you can to get the point across. Be stern and quick about this whole ordeal. Be very convincing. Make yourself believe this before you tell her. Think of every possible response she could have and plan for it. Hopefully, she wont have much of a response at all and you can move on and not dwell on this too long. Remember, its just some story about some friend she will never meet.
Personally, i would just tell her directly. However if you are worried about her LSE then maybe indirection is your best choice. Let me know how it goes!

Hey, welcome back man.
I would go with two options. Tell her directly or just go crazy flaky on her. I had one girl back in super AFC days that to get rid of her I just constantly flaked. She never got mad and eventually just went off.
The other option, tell her flat out like I-Man's suggesting.
Ultimately I think you'll judge the best. Keep us posted.
