I could tell Joel was interested in me as soon as we met. Like I said, Joel is really nice but I'm not interested in him romantically at all. I thought Joel was trying to save face with his little joke and that he would give up trying to ask me out, but he hasn't. I don't want to hurt his feelings but he's asked me out about four different times. I don't want to be a jerk but I need to let him know he has to stop asking me to go out with him.
