You are awesome, my dude. I'm sure she'll appreciate the kind gesture

I try, Shuri… I try.
She did get the message, and she said it meant a lot to her, so that's good… I mean, she might come to me at some point, but she also might not. She's got her sorority sisters and other friends, but I think sometimes even an offer for support can mean the world.

It truly can… I have seen it happen, Bec…

That's wonderful, Bec. I'm glad you reached out to her and she received you well…

This site is amazing. Had I not asked for advice, I may not have reached out… Not because I didn't want to, but because sometimes it's scary being the one to initiate conversations like that.

Yeah… We'll do anything to help… No person should have to suffer without help…

^^^ Indeed.

As long as you're helping people and picking up the slack for me, I'm happy…

Guys I'm gonna do something nice for my crush!

Good luck, Jynnie!

We're reading Romeo and Juliet for class and we get to read parts and she really really really wants Mercutio for Act 3 so I'm going to go to class early to reserve him for her even though I really wanted Mercutio since I got sick and missed most of my scenes as him for Act 2

Awwwwww
Do you think she'll know it was you? Or are you doing it secretly?

I think she'll guess it was me.
I hope she figures out it was me.

Hey, uh I hate to bother y'all but I have a bit of a problem

And some good news I guess

Whichever one you want first

Bad news. Get it out of the way. Then the good so we can be happy again!

Whats up?

What's up?

Ok so bad news:
There is this one particularly challenged person who I used to be friends with but not anymore (he used to have a crush on me, which I talked to him about and friendzoned him, and then over this past summer he sent perverted messages to me after I invited him and a few other friends to go swimming at my house. When school started again, I tried to talk to him and say that what he told me was wrong and it made me feel really uncomfortable because I already have some self esteem issues, but he ignored me and he still thinks he didn't do anything wrong.) To add on to that, I'm pretty 100% sure I made it clear that I didn't want him to be around me and I didn't want to be his friend (post me screaming at him to get out of my life before band, Oh YEAH AND HES IN ALL OF MY CLASSES). But, of course, he can't get it through his thick head and he keeps following me around and I catch him staring at me in and between classes. He sits near me at lunch and I can't shake him. I heard from my other good friends that he has asked them why I insist on ignoring him. best part is, I have told all of my friends what happened so they know exactly what he did. I don't know what to do or tell him to keep him away from me. He makes me uncomfortable and I can't stand him.

Let me just say I’m really sorry. I’ve had/ am in a semi-similar experience just a little less extreme. Have you talked to an adult about it? I talked to one of my teachers and she talked to other teachers and they moved me away from him in class.

@Moxie
I have tried, but they just gave me some advice (that mostly didn't work) and basically dismissed it after a few days

I can get through it though, I'll be fine

Oh sorry about that. The teacher I talked to was really feminist and noticed he was being creepy. Is there anyone you could talk to that would be like that?
