  there's this particular guy who takes the initiative to message me quite a number of times everyday.. asking about my well-being... eg. have i eaten, how's my day.. stuff like that... and as a friend, i should be replying his messages right..? (cauz usually i reply others who msg me) so i always reply each time he sms-es... chat with him like normal loh.. i think now he thinks i'm interested in him too (through his messages) because i always reply his messages... fact is, im not.. (as in i do not have any romantic feeling towards him..)
  
  so how am i supposed "hint" a little bit to him that i only want to be friends before he starts to assume even more? i feel tht its kinda rude to not reply the other party when he / she messages you... so yah.. what m i supposed to do?

  thanks for ur advices guys.. some of them i dun really think can work leh... for eg some of u guys told me nt to beat abt the bush n juz tell him tht im not interested blah blah.. d reason why i cant do that is becoz he hasnt officially popped that question yet (though he did drop alot of hints).. plus... he's my friend too, i dont want him to hate me for saying such blunt stuff.. yapz.. so... what im tryin to do now is to delay the sms time like the others said.. thks again!

  What kinda hints???
