can i have some advice please

im talking to this person and i used to really like them like, like them like them. but then i started to get the ick if you get my drift. they started like saying stuff like "i wish i was with you so we could cuddle" or just randomly out of the blue saying "i want to hug you rn". ive made it very clear to this person that i dont want a relationship but they keep flirting with me and making it obvious they want a relationship when ive told them multiple times i just like them as a friend. i dont want them to think im leading them on but i really dont think im doing that. what should i do? should i just drop this person or how do i make it more clear that i dont like them in that way?
