    RebHe already sees a psychiatrist :S I can't just pretend he doesn't exist. I'm actually going to go as far as say he might commit suicide if I do, like he almost did when his last ex broke up with him, and like when his friends stopped talking to him. Plus we sit next to each other in Law class so ignoring him will be pretty hard.

    Lunarmaybe around the school, but we have some of the same friends anyway so . . . luckily I live quite far away from him.

    I'm in the middle of writing the reply right now. I'm being quite kind with it but I'm saying how he should move on because I'm not interested in him in the same way. I'm saying I'd like to be friends but it's uncomfortable for me when he's doing all this blah blah blah. I can't tell if I'm being too kind or too harsh with it though. I want him to get the message, but because he's so unstable I'm worried that if it's too harsh he'll kill himself. I think he's definately capable of doing that if I upset him too much.

    v. He sniffs her memory stick. xD I classify that as slightly stalkerish in my books.

    I think you should ignore him, to be honest. Don't reply to his messages, unfriend him if you haven't already, and just blank him. You've tried explaining nicely and it hasn't got the message through, and so if you want to be rid of him, you need to be harsher >.>

    Having said that, I'm no psychologist, but there's clearly something not right with him mentally. You should really tell your parents or a teacher - he needs help, in my opinion.

    vv It's true, I'm going to have to tell him straight. But I can't be that harsh though or he might do something more drastic than making himself bleed this time. He's very delicate!

    Sunset Wing Most of my guy friends are sort of friends with him too. Everybody knows each other at my Sixth Form, so If a guy friend does that, he would tell someone, and it would be all over the school :( and the guy friends which don't go to my school are all taken. I'd have to get an actual boyfriend (Please don't make me! D':)

    I could talk to a school official, I guess. I'm really scared about it though . . . cos most people, especially teachers and what, wouldn't think he was like this unless they experienced it. He's a like a stright A student and all.

    Justalittlegirl That's true, but he might go as far as scouring the country for me. But the sahara's okay, I really like camels.

    I think if you respond back to him saying thank you, or aww how sweet
    His going to get further ideas, and send you more expecting grander gestures of affection..Harsh it may be but say to him

    " Listen, I am not interested. Not now, not never. You wanna be friends then I am cool with that, We can make it work, but stop making a dork out of yourself. Your not only embarrasing me but your also embarrasing yourself. Snap out of it! Now!" lol, well thats what I would say =D..

    He sounds preety obsessed. My opinion lol

    But then who would think of Wales? It's not a place you'd go to run. :D
    So you like the heat? O.O Wow, okay, buy a ticket to the Sahara and if telling him don't work, move and live with the camels! :D

    That really shouldn't be something you have to put up with :(
    Do you have a guy friend who would pretend to be your boyfriend? Whenever I'm hanging out with friends and a creeper starts coming on to me one of my guy friends will just pretend to be dating me or something.
    Works pretty well.

    You could try talking to a counselor or another school official about him, too.

    Lunar I have D': He's persistant!

    Jinxeh Ahah, that's a nice idea. If I did the same though, he'd probably put it down as being due to my 'killer sense of humour'.

    Plus, he'd probably be delighted that I'm into rap too.

    Justalittlegirl Wales isn't far away enough. Sahara it is.

    If the Antarctic is too cold then maybe the Sahara Desert?
    Or even Wales, if you're really desperate!

    Poppies I've had friends tell him I'm 'involved' with another guy, when it's been half-true, but I can outright lie to him because then I'd have to lie to everyone else at school too! I'm scared if what I do is too harsh he'll do something stupid. Apprently he was really suicidal after his last girlfriend broke up with him and I'm the only thing which make's life worthwhile for him, or something :S I don't know who I can tell!

    Teen Contradiction I think he sees a psychiatrist sometime. I think he has some form of depression, and he has anxiety. So yeah, I'm worried he'll do something stupid too.

    Ive tried that. Friends have helped. Hasn't worked whatsoever. :(

    JustalittlegirlDon't worry, my friends find it hilarious! Yeah it's not pleasant . . . especially when I hear what some of the other raps say. It make me shudder. Okay, I think I'll do that.

    . . . But it's so cold in the Antarctic :(

    CarelessWhisper Thanks for the advice. Yeah I really hope he does give up eventually. Luckily theirs only like 8 months until we all leave school. Here's hoping he doesn't go to the same uni as me.

    Okay, I'm not saying this to be mean or anything, but is he on medication or have anything like that wrong with him?

    I would say keep on rejecting him, but then again, that might get him upset and do something very stupid. Is there any possiblitiy of getting him to go for someone else?

    Report him. Block him from your facebook. I would say you need to tell him to straight up back off. Tell him you have boyfriend and make your friends tell him that as well. Something. If he keeps his stalker mode up, you could either get a lifetime movie about you or just tell someone that can make him stop.

    oh wow. That guy sounds really creepy! How clear did you make it last time that you weren't interested? I think you should tell him again, say 'I really appreciate that you wrote this, but I'm becoming uncomfortable with . . . blah blah blah.'

    obvs not the blah blah party, but you get what I mean. Hopefully he'll give up. If not hopefully time should help.

    Oh god....sorry but this is kinda funny in a weird type of way. He raps about you? That's kinda...eched, really. I feel sorry for you.
    But yeah, you should keep telling him that you aren't interested. Sooner or later he's going to get the hint and back off. Unless, he doesn't in which case I'd recommend buying a ticket to the Antarctic and living there.
