Just say "I'm flattered but I have no interest being anything other than an acquaintance with you. I hope you respect that decision."
Although I doubt this is the problem....
I probably didn’t explain myself properly, the OP was just an example.. but this ^^^
Being more direct and to the point rather than thinking too much about not trying to hurt someone else’s feelings, as it clearly doesn’t work. They do always come back with answers and flattery like it’s a debate when you’ve made a statement though. I’m going to open the message and answer it.
Tbh, I really like going to that store, I’m always fixing up something and it’s conveniently close 😂click to expand

Why do you want to sleep with your Mumma??
FFS
And I need advice on how I handle this. I have zero interest in anyone that is more than 10 years younger than me. As I get older, I feel I don’t have any more time to be playing around I’ve had my fun and now I am only looking for serious long term.
Now my approach or rather my response probably needs work. I’m Libra and always try to be considerate of others feelings.
Example: A week ago, I was in the local hardware store (Bunnings)which I frequently visit (not anymore.. I’m now going 10ks out of my way to another)
Young guy from my home country I’ve chatted to several times over the years asking for help finding things. He’s always waves out when I’m in (once a month or more frequent if I have a home project happening) haven’t seen him in a while so as he was helping me locate something again, he asks if I’m single and when I said yes asked if I’m on fb… I tried to say Instagram because there’s too much personal info on fb. So feeling put on the spot I give him my fb name. He adds me right there and then… I didn’t pull out my phone and didn’t excepted it or open it.. today I get notification he’s trying to message me 🤦🏼♀️ now I can never go back to that store again 😂
I’ve said before in other circumstances, you’re too young. There’s always a come back.
Is the best approach to lie and say, I have someone? I’ve said it before to a friend of a friend but I’m not good handling lies.
Am I manifesting all wrong?
The stupid tarot cards always say keep your mind open but seriously, I have no interest in entertaining anyone I feel is too young.

From what I have been able to perceive and gather about sweetheart's personality over many years of DXP-interactions is that to me, she carries this youthful and kind of child-like energy and enthusiasm, which to me is the best way to live life. It's obvious then that she would attract "younger" people.
Having said that, I think in general Libra's do need to learn to say "no" more often in all kinds of situations, once they've mastered this, their energy will change and then they will start attracting more of what/who they really need in their lives.

You clearly have issues with holding your ground. There is absolutely no need to lie. Who cares if they want to come back with a million reasons why your should give them a chance, if you tell someone "you're ass is too young" then mean it and keep it movin' with a polite "thank you very much for the compliment, you just made my day, however it's still gonna be a NO for me". Say it with the sweetest smile if that makes your Leeb bits feel better, just say what you mean and mean what you say.
Manifesting all wrong? I don't think so. Seems like you need to be okay with the "uncomfortable" feeling of rejecting someone flat out. I mean you didn't even want to give this man your FB info, yet felt pressured to do so? Un huh. Work that out. You don't owe anyone anything. No explanation beyond "sorry it's a pass" and most certainly don't owe anyone a web of lies to make them feel nice and "loved" inside because God forbid they get rejected by someone.click to expand

No you’re exactly right. I do have a problem with being direct and holding my ground. It’s not the first time I’ve put myself into this type of situation and it goes from what should end there to dragging on and me having to work a way out.click to expand

Older the berry the sweeter the juice or something like that. I don't know. I've never been into older women.

I think the younger man wanting to shag his mum because he prefers older women is such a generalization
Men of all ages want a “mummy” figure to look after them. Its not age related ... its down to how needy or mature the man is
The younger men I’ve been with say it’s because older women are sexier, more confident, calmer and self assured.
That's just a generalization too, Men of all ages want a Woman for her tenderness, care and devotion. Life's hard af and it's nice to have some of that goodness in it. If human nature is needy and immature then so be it, if you've got a problem with that then that's your problem.click to expand

This is very endearing to me. Having to drive 10 miles further now because you are avoiding a guy whose facebook message is haunting you with it's notification that it's sitting there unread 🤣
I love this about Libras. They're all calm and composed on the outside and then when you see inside their minds they're worried about something seemingly inconsequential because they don't want anything upsetting their balance - it's so sweetclick to expand
