The word "no" should always enter into the conversation. Clearly, politely, gently, maturely.

Say no, give no reason and move on!

"Thank you! I AM quite flattered. But I'm afraid I'm NOT interested!"

I would say 'I'm very flattered but I just don't love you'

My mother did this the first time my dad proposed... she laughed and said that it was too early in the relationship (not a quote by any means). Needless to say (or maybe not, what with all the teen pregnancies nowadays), she accepted a later proposal from him. There's definitely a difference between declaring the proposal premature and breaking up in response to the proposal...

Say "NO!"with a bullhorn.It's good to be clear.
-
say no, tell them why, and run as fast as you can before they have a chance to do something crazy or stupid.
-
A man that is denied, shouldn't have asked in the first place. . So a polite "no" is enough.
-
Let them know you have thought about it and give them a specific reason why to give them some sort of closure and then move on.

Honesty is the best policy. However, you need to be tactful, understanding and polite. I would sit down with the person and explain honestly why you are denying the proposal. Some people bs the other person by saying "it's not you it's me". That is not a good enough answer. That person needs to know exacty why you don't feel for them in that way. They deserve the truth. Obviously, they have invested feelings for you so the least you can do is give them that one time courtesy talk. :) +6
