Guys, here it what's going on.

There is this guy in my university who seems to like me. I figured out he payed attention on everything I've said in class since the first day there, he remember whatever i have asked the professor. He is a really nice guy, i would like him as a friend only. I'm not interested about anything else, in fact i like somebody else. He is few months younger than me, i like guys who are 4-5 years older. Today when in the class, he told me he was worried i did not frequented the two last days. After the lection, he asked me if i have time to drink a coffee, I asked him if we could take my friend with us. I did not wanted to be alone with him, don't want to give him the impression I would consider him as a boyfriend. He was flirting during all the conversation, I tried to be nice and behave friendly.



What should be done in such situations? I tell him right away I'm not interested or be just friends?

You can be friends as long as he stops hitting on you. If he makes you uncomfortable then best to stay away. Maybe start talking to him about this guy you like, that will put him right in the friendzone!
Right or even say, "I'm glad we're such good friends, dude. You're like the brother or male blood related relative I never had. I'm glad I have someone who can talk to me about my guy troubles. There are just all of these guys who I like, I'm so glad I have someone who is different from them. If you ever need a wing-woman to help you find a nice girl, let me know. It's SO amazing how platonic we are, I wouldn't change our friendship for the WORLD! Right, bestie?!"

If he doesn't get that, he's an idiot.
