So I have this guy friend who Ive been friends with for years who wont stop bothering me. He constantly tells me how much he has fallen for me and even though I have a boyfriend he always tells me I should be with him. What do I do? I have been trying to give him the hint that its just a friendship but its getting annoying.

Stop giving him hints and tell him outright. You have a boyfriend and that's the way its going to stay you have no interest in him. Tell him you like the friendship but if he doesn't stop making comments about the two of you then you will have to end the friendship.
It sounds harsh but if he isn't getting it subtly there's not many other ways to go about it.

The "hints" you are dropping may be seen by him that you like him. Tell him that you're involved or ignore him for a little while. Maybe he'd lay off if you ignored him for a short time.

My Boyfriend is going to speak to my friend today. I told him to be firm but also nice. I want to try and preserve the friendship but also get it through to him that the friendship is nothing more than that.
