<human>: I met this guy about a month ago and he seemed like a decent guy. I later found out he's running a bit of a drug operation. By that I mean he's the one dealing to the dealers. Which I seriously don't want to get involved in. I smoke weed sometimes but it's a social thing more than anything. I'm not about to start dating a dealer no matter how nice he seems.

He asked me out the day we met (before I knew about the drugs) and I said yes. He messaged me later that week asking when I could go out. I ended up never responding to his messages (I tend to avoid things I don't want to deal with). 

Now present day my friend who introduced me told him I lost my phone and didn't get a new one until now. Which he bought. Now he's texting me again asking if I still want to go out. I don't. I'm really uncomfortable with the whole dealing thing. 

How do I tell him I don't want to go out? I don't want to be a bitch since he's friends with a couple of my friends (who know but don't care) and we'll likely see each other again. In my past relationships I've always reciprocated so I've never rejected anyone before.

Condense the text into a few key points
<bot>: Drug dealer asked me out, he's friends with some of my friends, how do I say no in a way that makes future contact as not-awkward as possible?
