Hillary Duff appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Wednesday, Oct. 8 and, according to USMagazine.com, her ex Aaron Carter became a topic of conversation. Though the two haven’t “dated” since age 13, Carter has now recently been trying to rekindle the love through Twitter. As Cohen asked questions about the topic, Duff mentioned she felt “uncomfortable,” saying it was a long time ago.
What do you do if you’re getting unwelcome romantic attention?
Cupid’s Advice:
If someone has feelings for you and you’re not on the same page, it can no doubt be an uncomfortable situation. Cupid has some tips on what you can do:
1. Be honest: Thank the person for being honest, but do the same in return. Don’t let the declaration hang for too long, as you’d simply be leading them on. Let them know you aren’t interested in them that way, but you feel flattered.

2. Be clear: Make sure your point comes across clearly when talking to this person. Don’t convolute it with long phrases and “fluff.” Get to the point in a nice way.
