How do I deal w/ this guy and the gals at my school???
I always try and show God's love to everyone through how I treat them, but last year at school I started having real problems doing so because of something that started happening. There's a guy at my school who's basically nice, but he can't take a hint at all. He tries to be BFF's w/ everybody, particularly girls, and whenever we get our school pictures, he always orders a whole bunch, and then gives all these girls, myself included, pictures of him, even when some girls obviously want nothing to do w/ him. He's done this now to all of us in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade, and I guess he'll do it again this fall when we're freshman. he's given us all so many pics of himself that he has basically become a joke at our school for doing so. Last year, a lot of the girls he gave pictures to starting throwing them into the toilet in the girls bathroom, and leaving them there for everyone to see and make fun of the guy, and he never had any clue what was happening. Some of the girls even pressured me to do that to my picture of him as well. A few times, I almost had accidents b/c I had to change stalls to avoid those pictures floating in the toilets. I wanted to know for future reference how to best show God's love to both specifically this guy, and also to the girls who have started doing this to his pictures and want me to do so, as in what could I say or do that would best convey God's love to them? I mean, is the more loving thing to do to tell the guy honestly what is happening to his pictures bluntly, or to not? What's the most Christ-like loving way to respond when the girls start pressuring me to flush my copy pf his pic also, or to respond when I see his pic that they thrown in the toilet when I have to go?

Well, these girls just sound like a bunch of jerks. But every school has them. I would just tell them that what they're doing isn't right. Your going to have to be the person that will be there for this guy. It's going to take a lot of course, especially when everybody else around you is hurting his feelings, without him even knowing it. Just talk to the girls and tell them that what they're doing isn't nice, or right at all. Just remember, try not to get pressured into what everybody else is doing, no matter how hard it seems. Look up 2 Timothy 2:22. Always keep that verse in your head for reference, even though it may be hard, if we put our effort in, God will bless us in the end. I know it's not much, but I hope I helped!! Write me back and tell me how it went....
