By going to parents, counselor or police with this, you are not only helping and protecting yourself but potentially helping this young man get the help he needs. He is doing this for twisted kicks and if his current behavior fails to satisfy him, it can escalate for the worse.
Thanks for this!

Ive been sexually harrassed and never reported it. Its happened more than once. Ive always regretted it. If i could go back in tome, id report every incident. Good luck. Whatever you decide, just take care of yourself.
Thanks for this!

agree with the posts; get him out and don't tolerate that behavior. 'had to lol at "don't feed the bear" by Gus. That is so very true; they'll take the honey and kill you too.
Thanks for this!

caution, siljie. this prob will not go away by itself. please don't minimize what's happened. i know you feel in conflict but would u want this to happen to anyone else not to mention you?

I talked to T about it yesterday and she really helped steel me up for it. She said it was sexual harassment and technically assault and that if I really can't get it through his head and threaten him, then that I need to tell my teacher. She said that it's okay if I don't go to the police since she knows how traumatic that would be for me (I'm verrryy shy and never talk about my problems and stuff to other people except her and this site) but that if need be I must tell the teacher. I plan on it this or next week if he still doesn't get his act together.

You know... I'd skip the whole "getting it through his head" by threatening him bit. He could take that as a challenge and escalate the behaviour, believing it unlikely that you'd live up to your threats. Just go tell the police.
Thanks for this!

How are you doing? Were you able to tell your parents or the school?

I hope you are safe.
