theres this goth/skater/punk/whatever the freak he is. well for the past few months he has been seriously flirting with me. problem: he and i both know that i already am seeing someone. a while ago we went to this play out in the city. of course i had to sit next to him because we sat near each other on the bus. on the bus he kept looking back and staring into my eyes and stuff like that. then when we got to the play and everyone was settled in their seats, the lights went down. i was watching the play and then i felt him touching me kind of uncomfortably like all over my legs and arms. after a while it was bothering me so i would slap his hand because he was annoying. but then every five minutes or so he would start stroking me. after the thing was over i was like whatever and we left.
now in school he comes to my locker every morning and afternoon even if my bf is standing there (my boyfriend gets pissed off too). also, the guy always wants a hug in the halls and sometimes makes sexual comments online. in 4th period (language arts), he always tries to catch my eye and when he does, he makes very ... innapropriate body language. if you know what i mean =/
he's in my social studies class. i think it's normal for him to act like that to girls because theres another girl he tanterizes in my ss class and even a group of his friends he has who like his behavior at lunch. he likes touching our hair and hes always finding a way to touch someone -- and one time he even licked my hand. but you have to see that most of the times he jokes and plays around. but im not sure. gosh does that even make sense?
he's nice and makes me laugh sometimes but what kind of friendship is this?

hope this helps,

sizzlinmandolin answered Thursday April 13 2006, 7:02 pm: Don't let it happen anymore. Don't just slap his hand away. Punch him in the face or kick him in the nuts. Seriously hurt him. You won't get in that much trouble if anyone sees it. This needs to stop and my experience with telling adults about things like this has just been a waste of time. They can't do anything about him giving you looks and they can't control him every time he tries to touch you. He's just a huge pervert and if people tell him to stop, which is pretty much all they can do, he's not going to. Make him stop. Hurt him and embarass him in front of his friends and make him never want to see you again. I know you have it in you and I'll bet you really want to. Good luck!

tasuki answered Thursday April 13 2006, 5:56 pm: It is by no means "normal" for him to act this way! That is SEXUAL HARASSMENT. You tell him that if he doesn't stop, you're going to sue his ass. Yeah, I know it seems like he's just joking but if you feel harassed, which you apparently do, and you've told him to stop, that makes it harassment. Tell a teacher, the principal, your parents, or someone else if he doesn't stop. THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU TO PUT UP WITH THIS. [ tasuki's advice column | Ask tasuki A Question ]
firerychix answered Thursday April 13 2006, 5:56 pm: now you need to let him know that what he's doing to you is illegal, and you don't like it. if he continues, let him know you are going to place a complaint to the school or the police make sure you also tell him it it illegal to sexually harass someone especially to a girl and he's a boy.tell it to him seriously so he knows your not playing.......
Sherry answered Thursday April 13 2006, 5:28 pm: This is clearly sexual harassment. Which is illegal. I think next time he does it, tell him to stop or you'll tell the school. Say it seriously, so he knows your not joking around. No school tolerates sexual harassment. I know telling seems childish, but if thats what it takes to get him to stop sexually harassing you and other girls at school then do it. I know he is sorta your friend, but you said it...what kind of friendship is that? [ Sherry's advice column | Ask Sherry A Question ]
