So, there's this really nice family that I know through church. Their children are all in their 20's, like me (OK, I'm all of 20, lol), and their youngest son, who I'll call Craig, has had a crush on me for a couple years. Sounds great at first, but the problem is... he's, errr, a bit slow mentally. He looks normal, but he had a lot of complications early in life.
Anyways, a couple years back, Craig brought flowers to church for me, but I wasn't there that day. I just heard about it later, and was honestly relieved I'd missed it. Yesterday, talking to Craig's dad casually over the phone, I happened to mention that my boyfriend and I had just broken up. Today, my dad told me over the phone that Craig had called and left a message asking me out.
My best guess is that Craig's dad told the family, and then Craig called my parent's house without HIS parent's knowledge. Craig's parents at least know I'm still at college, but Craig didn't call my cell phone.
So, the inevitable finally happens... I've got to turn him down nicely, but how? I've turned guys down before, but not... erm... slightly challenged ones. Also, the only way I have to contact the family is through his parent's cell phones, which means having to tell them what happened. Last but not least... his family's been incredibly kind and offered to take me on a cruise next month with them, so that means seeing Craig... a lot!!!
What should I doooo.....
I really like these people, and don't want to get this situation much more messy than it is.... I already haven't seen them in months. My friends:

That's my two-cents. But I'll keep you in my prayers to give you discernment for what you should do.
i wrote my pastor to get the exact details about the trip to kentucky, just fyi
yeah, i wrote the guy's mom, so we'll see what happens. :S i'll prbly end up going... i don't think they're using this cruise to try to hook me up with their son or something; in fact, i doubt they even know what he did in the first place. but i dunno. if that's all it was for, i suppose i'd be un-invited anyways!!!
in short if you dont like him in that special way you have to let him down in a nice way and truthful otherwise it might make the frienship complicated
im sorry if that was kinda all over the place
Very difficult one I know!
