Well he started to like me A LOT say he loved me and goodnight and all that and then he started sending me stuff. Freaky!!! He went to disney land for spring break and he sent me micky mouse ears with my NAME sewed into the back, 2 necklaces with my name on them and then for my birthday he sent me a card with a teddy bear and 16 dollars..Stalker? YES. He only did this because I have a boyfriend..John that he "hated" (was jealous of) and would always put him down, well I got freaked out about him...He got my address because my friend lives in maine and she knows him and she told him..well i stopped talking to him so he got the hint that i didnt like him AT ALL and then he just gets mad and sends me mean emails...Thats the way it worked for me but if you want him to keep talking to him then you need to tell him that you guys are relaly good firends and you don't want ot loose that but you live in a differnt state and it wouldnt work out and he should know that. Say that he is like a brother to you and that is all we will ever be because you guys have a bond like no other..He will take this into concideratione and think about it and he will adventually get over it and all will be good. Sorry so long but I hope I helped you with your question hun. Respond with what you think? Thanks bye. xo sara [ SaraLee's advice column | Ask SaraLee A Question ]
