I'm antisocial and there's this guy in one of my classes who's always trying to have some sort of skin to skin contact with me every day (trying to have my hand in his ). He's always looking over my shoulders reading everything I go on, on my laptop, phone, etc. and he's alway looking at my answers on my assignments. and he he won't back off. he blocks the hallways in his pathetic attempts to get my attention which results in people in the hallways looking at us like we're idiots. I've tried asking him to leave me alone multiple times but he can't seem to take the hints. How do I get him to stop?

Tell an adult who can do something about it. If the first adult you tell doesn't do anything, then tell a different one. If you have even an acquaintance that can vouche for you, then talk to them. And make sure that you keep explicitly telling him no.

That's extremely creepy behavior and he needs to learn how to respect a person's boundaries. And he has to understand that if he doesn't do that, then he doesn't deserve your attention and especially not your affection.

Hopefully if he continues on like this, then he'll face repercussions. Feel free to update us in the future

If ur still in school go tell ur principle whats going on if its in school if it ant in school go to the cops or something I hope it helps

I told him I didn’t want to “shake his hand” today and he kept trying to demand one repeatedly saying “its a sign of respect” and “to show respect”. It felt off because he was so adamant about it.

>>4 The funniest thing to me is how they don't find it in the realm of possibility that you don't respect them. I probably would've laughed in their face.

Do you guys think he likes me or anything? is it a petty crush?

>>6 May I ask how old you two are?
Younger teens/children might act like that if it's a crush, but it would be unlikely (though not impossible) if he's an older teen or adult.

That said, if he has some sort of personality disorder then it would be hard to say.

I’m 17 he’s maybe a year younger

Then I would say it's possible for him to have a crush on you, but it's not definite. It really depends on someones personality. If he is immature he might not even realise he has a crush on you.
Whatever the case, I recommend the same as the rest before: Tell someone of authority in school about this.

He was looking at my computer again and he grabbed my hand and forced me to have a "hand shake" with him today.

>>10 Go report him, call it bullying if needs be.
This type of stuff can be reported as harrasment to the police so I would assume your school would also do something about it.

Man, even if he does have a crush on you, he's still being a shitty person and a crush does not excuse his actions. He has no respect for your boundaries.
I know it seems extreme, but if you've asked him to stop multiple times and he still hasn't, it needs to be reported as harassment. Report to your teachers, the principal, and yes, even the police if the previous two do nothing to help.
There's also another thing you could try before doing that. When I was in high school, there was a guy who always tried to distract me from my school work and made lots of sexual jokes towards me. Often, these kinds of guys are just trying to get a rise out of you. So all I did was.. ignore him completely. Pretended he didn't exist at all. He got bored because I wasn't giving him the attention he wanted and he stopped bothering me. Try doing that. Completely ignore him the best you possibly can. If his behavior continues after that, you need to report him.

Today he punched me a few times because I didn't want to talk to him.

>>13 I'm really sorry he's been harassing you like that, you shouldn't have to put up with any of this shit from him. Are you okay? Did he leave bruises? (If they did, first of all, fuck him. Second of all, take pictures and keep them in case you want to report him later.)

Have you been able to tell a teacher or the police? Do you think your parents could help? If you haven't told anyone of authority about him yet, please do. If he doesn't face some sort of repercussion then I'm worried he might keep escalating into more and more aggressive behavior.

Hope you're doing okay– good wishes for the rest of the school week, OP.

at this point you should get the police involved. Don't bother going to your School-administration. They are usually to busy keeping a good image to help you. If there are individual teachers you trust ask them directly for their support in case this whole situation turns into a clusterf*ck. And if you're really in trouble (for example that guy starts to beat you up or threaten you remember that the dollars have your back. We will make him pay if he lays hands on one of us.

I didn't tell anyone yet because the last time I reported something, they completely brushed me off. Also the trimester ended so hopefully I get new classes without him. Does anyone know how how to avoid people like him?
