A brother is in a dilemma. He doesn't know how to say no to a sister for marriage who he has no attraction to. He doesn't want to hurt her feelings. What should he do?

Tell the brother that he should keep it short and brief but definitely not mention the part about no attraction so that he can spare her feelings. The sister may have just wanted to see if this marriage could have been a possibility for her, so she has probably prepared herself if the outcome is not the one she wanted. Since the brother does not feel the same way, he must let her know that he does not feel that they are compatible. He could also say that he's not interested in anyone at this time (if that is true) and leave it at that.
