Have you gone through such experiences? How did you end up avoiding their approach?
If it's some guy looking for time pass, then girls are too familiar with how to avoid them. But what if its a serious guy? One with the personality you like but can't accept because it'll complicate too many things. How would you tell them the news without hurting them much?
If a guy is serious and you want to avoid him for personal reason, you can talk to him about your situation. Actually you will feel bad for hurting him, but it is far better than giving a false hope. He will be hurt by your decision but with time he manages to be okay with the rejection. It is important that your rejection will not make him feel like a looser. You should ensure that your rejection doesn't meant to hurt his self respect or personality, but only because of your situation. If you are not sure, better you convey your rejection as earlier as possible, it can avoid him having further hopes on you.
