I'm an idiot, have done something stupid, and now need to solve the problem...

So you decided that since your best friend liked her, it would be a good idea for you to take her, just because. Great thinking jackass. You are a ******. That is all.

500 odd posts and one green gem.. i really can't imagine why..

A while back I found out a girl liked me a lot and had turned down my best mate in the hope of getting with me. I didn't really like her in that way, but when I heard about how much she liked me, I decided to make a move and we've been going out ever since.

But I don't like her like that. At all.

And it's getting serious; we're really close now, and she's my best mate now and we spend loads of time together, but I just don't fancy her. And I don't know what to do. I should have let her down gently in the first place, but now it's too late and now I'm going to leave her upset one way or another.

How the hell do I end it now?

Who gives a crap about rep?

Am I the only one who thinks that going up to her and saying "Honestly, I lied all along and I never really liked you like that" will be unnecessarily painful? Find a way of avoiding her for now and she'll probably cool off on you, making it a lot easier to break up later.

Sigh.

"Is your relationship stuck in a rut? Why not slowly drive your unwanted partner to the brink of white-haired, nail-gnashing insanity by treating them in an increasingly half-hearted fashion, occasionally punctuating your steady indifference with vaguely convincing declarations of love, just so they'll hang around long enough for you to make up your mind whether to jump ship or not? Why not stand back and watch as they gradually devolve into a nervous, servile automaton, a jittering zombie, desperate to make you smile again? And at the point where it all finally snaps, and those hot pitiful tears start dripping from their red-raw eyeholes, and their nose leaks demeaning snotjuice down their jumper, and their gulps and sobs arrive with such shuddering force and frequency as to render them dumb... why not start feeling sorry for yourself? Go on. After all, you're suffering too, right? Yeah! I mean, look how guilty they're making you feel... Hardly fair is it? Jesus, why can't they just pull themselves together? It's almost as though they're trying to upset you on purpose. ****, that's pathetic. Listen to those pleas, those spluttered pleas for reconsideration - don't they get on your tits? What did you see in this **** loser in the first place? Time to split, that's what it is. Woo hoo! Yeah man - run. Run like the wind. Set sail for new horizons. Bye bye depressionville. Stick a peck on their cheek and jump the **** out the door. And you're free. You're free! You scrubbed off the **** and you're free! Smile, damn you, smile! Pat yourself on the back! You deserve it! You won! You're the BEST!"
