Oh Lord, more teen drama Options

[R i O T *]

Our favorite topic, I know, right . Anyway, there's this guy named David. I don't like him (except for as a friend), but he really likes me. It's pretty lame, but we always go to this Thursday night church service together and afterwards, his mom drives me home. Well tonight on the ride home, his sister and her friends tried getting me to go out with him, but I just want to stay friends and all. After a while, his sister and her friends started to leave us alone and we just sat there and talked. A little bit later, his mom made a sharp turn and I leaned into him and stayed there because he was confortable . And then later we started holing hands, which isn't really too bad, but now I'm worried that he might think we're going out because I've been leading him on. Any ideas on how I should tell him that I only like his as a friend without being too mean or cliche? Blah, so confusing

Say it to his face and be COMPLETELY honest, and as detailed as you can.

If he doesn't want to be friends after it, he's either 1. shallow, 2. only friends cuz he wanted to get in your pants or 3. unable to deal with the truth and reality...in which case(s) you're better off without him.

Of course, you can ignore this advice, and more drama shall surely ensue.
