You need to let him down lightly. Don't lead him on anymore than you already have. Just gently tell him that you love him, but only as a friend. Don't do it over the phone or through e-mail. It has to be done straight to him. After you break up, then continue, or at least try to continue, being his friend and being there for him. He probably will be hurt, and I understand that's something that will be hard to deal with. Just tell him you still love him, just not in that way.

Why do you have to tell him? Why not just be his friend to see how he responds to you that way? Then if it goes well you can slowly work into being more. Why does it have to be a hurry up deal? This way is a lot less scarier and you wont be risking making a fool of yourself.

Give him points for stepping up and telling you how he feels.Everybody can't do that,next feel flattered that you have someone who thinks that you're special.He has to be a decent guy or else you wouldn't be friends with him right? Consider the possiblity of what it would be like...Good Luck and no matter what happens try to remain friends.

Well, tell him you'll always be a friend but ask him if he's willing to try the next step and if it doesn't work, be friends again.

Simple. Walk up to him and say 'Look, I know we are not together anymore. I just want say that you are my friend and I care about you still. Please understand that you are important in my life and I value your friendship.'\n\nKeep it basic and be kind with your words and he will understand. I promise :)

Well if this guys likes you a lot, it's tough. There's no easy way to go about it, but the best thing is to be honest and let him know how you feel about him. If you tell him he probably wont want to be your friend because he'll be hurt so don't expect him to be cool about it. Just be honest and if you'll be friends it'll be up to him if he can accept you as such.

Act like you always do around him.  But if it doesn't turn out good doing that, talk to him and say that you just want to be friends.

Be honest and tell him you guys are better friends.

Don't overstep your boundaries. He's married and you shouldn't be playing with the thought that it can be anything more. Keep your friendship and respect yourself.

I've been in his shoes. The best thing to do is to let him down gently and don't let him think that there's any chance. That sounds difficult, I'm sure it is. \nTry this: "I really just like you as a friend and I don't see us as anything more. I'm sorry." \nIf he asks if there's ever a chance, tell him probably not. \nHe's in a really vulnerable position right now, but he'll appreciate being let down right away rather than dealing with someone who's afraid to hurt anyone's feelings. \nDon't feel guilty...that's just the way it is.\nChances are he'll be hurt and your friendship won't be the same ever again...but that's why they call it taking a risk.\nDon't use the "you're younger" excuse, in my opinion, I would just use the "it's not you, it's me" thing. And he won't like that, he'll probably eventually not want to talk to you for awhile, but that's the way it goes. \nI'm just being honest.\nP.S.- The "jeopardizing the friendship" thing is generally looked at by guys as weak and a cover to the real reason you won't date him....my advice is to not use it.
