Jokey Mean

Laura, 16
Florida
Asks:

Hi, I'm not sure about this guy. He talks with me everyday and is really sweet to me. However, recently he's started to be mean to me in a jokey way. He knows it makes me shocked, but he still finds it funny. He also says he likes me and waited for me in the cold for 40 minutes only to see me. Do you think he likes me? How can I tell if he does? Thanks

Lee's Thoughts:

He definitely likes you, but that *jokey meanness* is SOOO annoying isn't it? It can be funny for a bit, and then its just not. Of course you need to have a good sense of humor and just have fun with it, but when he approaches THE LINE...when things just start to be NOT so funny, you need to put your foot down and tell him when his little comments are becoming uncool.

Maybe something like (in a cute way of course)..."Are you trying to hurt my feelings?" or "You're going to make me not like you anymore." Ultimately, if his comments really start to rub you the wrong way, walking away is the best way to convey that you've had enough.

In the mean time, he totally likes you because he's paying attention to you. It's sort of a game right now (with the meanness) but its also a time for you to let him know what you find funny and sweet and what you don't.

Have fun!!

Comments:
Has he thrown any rocks at you yet? That's a good sign, and hair pulling. Do you have pigtails?

$0 minutes in the cold you say, oh yeah, the stalker likes you. No doubt about it.

Just sayin'.
