How do I tell someone to leave me alone?

Asked by izzyrockz (46points) May 11th, 2009

He is a guy at my school. He was really a jerk to me and played with my feelings. He wants to act strange at first by not talkin to me. Today all of a sudden he wants to bother and talk to me. How do I tell him I don’t want to talk with him?

“Leave me alone.”

Say: “I don’t want to talk to you”, and if he tries to communicate with you do not reciprocate.

If it is true that you don’t want to talk to him, you tell him nothing!

Take Ivan’s advice or act like he doesn’t exist. By that, I mean don’t even act as if you see him.

“Don’t talk to me” is a good way to get the point across.

Just come out with it. Tell him in no uncertain terms that you are not interested in him and that he needs to leave you alone. Then follow @tinyfaery‘s suggestion and ignore him. If he still harasses you I believe you have a reason to get some authorities involved.

Ignore it, eventually he’ll get bored and direct his attention elsewhere. (I’ve been in that boat, not fun but if you react it’ll only feed into him)

The problem is that if I tell him, he’s the type of guy that will be like what the fuck, fuck you bitch. He will also lie about me to his friends and probably the whole school. I don’t want people to belive things that he’s going to make up about me.

Just ignore him. He’ll go away if he doesn’t have an audience.

SuperMouse's avatar

Do the people who believe what he makes up about you really deserve your concern? Honestly, the people who know you, your group of friends, the people who’s opinions you might value, are going to know what he says isn’t true and that is what really matters. Are the opinions of people who would believe his lies worth being harassed for? For me the answer to that question is a big no.

tinyfaery's avatar

Ok, this seems way more convoluted than you not wanting to talk to him.

Do what you have to do. If he reacts like a child and spreads rumors and what not, then so be it. Actions have consequences, and this is a good time to learn that lesson. Doing the best thing for you will not always be easy. Would you rather subject yourself to his presence or deal with a few idiots who believe anything anyone tells them?

DrasticDreamer's avatar

If people will believe any negative thing he says about you, without actually knowing you, they aren’t worth your time. It doesn’t matter what people will think of you, because you know who you are, as do your friends. It’ll suck somewhat, but you can get through it.

sevenfourteen's avatar

This may be slightly unconventional but if you are afraid of him saying crap about you start the rumors first. If you tell everyone stuff that’s happend (even if you don’t want to) they won’t listen when he says it because they’ve already heard it. I’m not saying tell the whole school your business but if people knew you guys were involved they’ll probably just assume its out of spite that he’s calling you a bitch.

According to your last post on this guy, all you did is kiss him. If he spreads ugly rumors, you can either ignore them or fight back by saying something like “All we did was kiss and he was such a lousy kisser, I dumped him.” I don’t recommend this route, but it is an option.

@supermouse
Thanks for your advice.
Im going to try to that.The worst part is that im scared of him.
He’s crazy, one time when I was talking to him, he was like if any girl was to not talk to me I’ll make her life miserable no matter what. That scares me :(

SuperMouse's avatar

@izzyrockz is this the same guy you discussed in your previous post? Also, if he was so blatant about telling you what he would do if a girl crossed him, maybe he has said it to others. That means that many people will be on to him and know that he is spreading ugly rumors simply because of a bruised ego. Dude sounds like he has some self-esteem issues.

May I recommend that you talk to a parent or another adult you can trust about this? An adult in your life should know what is happening with this guy.

chyna's avatar

If he has threatened you, then do not play any game with him and ignore my previous post. Stay away from him and do as tinyfaery said, tell an adult.

SuperMouse's avatar

I second (third) tinyfaery’s suggestion of talking to an adult. It is a good idea to share this with someone you trust so they know what is up. At the very least they can help you work out some strategies for dealing with his nastiness and at the most they can help protect you from someone who might very well have some problematic issues.

@Tinyfaery and @drasticdreamer-
That’s true, I shouldn’t care what people think. If they was really my friends they will belive my word over his. He’s a jerk im not going to pay no mind to him anymore.
@chyna-
I might not do that because of the simple fact that it may turn this situation worst than it already is.

SuperMouse's avatar

@izzyrockz is there an adult you can share this with just as a heads up? Someone you can run it by and get their opinion but who won’t jump in right away and risk stirring things up even more?

izzyrockz's avatar

@supermouse- What’s funny that he does have issues and a lot. He use to tell me how he wanted to end his life, He is the same guy from the last post.
@tinyfaery and @chyna-
I might not tell my parents bacause they might get mad at me for talking to a crazy dude like him. I know someone I could tell which is my older cousin. He always say that he got my back, and would always be there for me. I think is time to tell my cousin.
Should I tell my cousin as soon as possible, or if the guy says one more thing to me in school.

izzyrockz's avatar

@supermouse-
Omly my cousin which he’s 25 is the only person that I can tell.

tinyfaery's avatar

If your cousin can act responsibly on your behalf, then yes, tell him; no need to wait. But, If your cousin is going to react impulsively, he might just make the situation worse. If you truly feel like you cannot talk to your parents then talk to a school counselor. That’s what they’re there for.

izzyrockz's avatar

I will just tell my cousin and that’s all.

SuperMouse's avatar

@tinyfaery is right, telling your cousin is only the way to go if he will act responsibly and a school counselor is a great option as well. Keep us posted.
