  • Treat them as though you would like to be treated is the best advice here.
  • Empathize, don't sympathize.
  • Be honest yet not derogatory.
  • Make it quick and simple but not without a clearly defined reason (not my type, don't see you that way, too old/young).
  • Make sure you don't try to lessen the blow by giving him/her a glimmer of hope that you may be interested in the future if you don't plan on it ever happening.
  • Avoid doing it in public if possible (no one wants to be rejected in front of a group, but sometimes people ask you out in front of one and it can't be helped)
  • Although this would be in the aftermath, don't talk about it with your friends (i.e. "you would not believe who just asked me out"). Speaking from a dude's perspective, I ask girls out on a fairly regular basis or at least have to initiate on a regular basis and rejection just happens to us all the time and it's understandable, but getting talked about is never fun.
  • If you were asked out over text, respond. Being left hanging is also never cool.
  • If you feel that someone you know is going to ask you out that you don't want to date, try to stop it before it happens. (personal note: I once did this to a girl who literally had my exact schedule in college. All of our classes everyday were identical. It took me about 4 days of hanging out with her to realize that I could not continue this but everyone we saw [friends, even the cashier's at the cafeteria] would talk to us like a couple even though I was just trying to not be rude by ignoring this girl who was going to be with me all day everyday all semester. I didn't realize that she took these comments seriously until she started to really cozy up. It ended badly and publicly.)
  • Like everything in life, it may seem easier at first to avoid the problem or not tell the whole truth when breaking bad news to someone but also like everything in life it ends a lot better and goes smoother when you tackle it head on and give the situation the respect it deserves.
  • I would also advise against commentating on the future (lets be friends, I like how things are now so let's not change that). It's not for you to decide at the moment as it's not you that is being hurt but they are. If you don't want to be friends, then the rejection should be enough reason for you to not see them. If you do want to remain friends then the next time you see him/her give them space but don't avoid them either. Just treat them as you normally would but understand if they are not ready to accept that just yet.

What is an indentatation??​
aniked [119]

Answer:

An indentation is used in paragraphs for more formal type essays.

Here's an example:

(paragraph 1)

This is the beginning paragraph where you hook the reader. Adding good use of words and a pretty sarcastic tone could grab one's attention.

(at the beginning of the paragraph try pressing space five times at most)

The best answer is the first option: 
<span>For seven nights, he sneaks into the old man’s room and watches the sleeping man.

A good  way to select the right answer is to read all of the options out loud. Which combination of the sentences sounds the most fluid and logical when you read it, and best preserves the meaning of the sentence? The first option does this best. </span>

"Do you think there is any relationship between sanity and intelligence or cleverness? Why or why not?"
elixir [45]
If this is asking for a personal opinion, then no. I do not believe there is any relationship or connection between sanity and intelligence because someone’s mental state or background doesn’t define their intelligence or thinking patterns. Some studies done over mental disorders such as BPD (borderline personality disorder) have found sufferers to be more intelligent and, ironically speaking, happier than the average person.
