Bothersome boy!
Grrrrr...there always seems to be a certain someone who knows how to irritate you. Emily wrote in with this sort of problem, so let's hear what she has to say and try to help!
Dear PLS,
How do I get a boy in my class to stop making fun of me. I am not going to tell anyone because I don't want to be a tattle tale! None of my friends will stand up for me!!

No. 1, Emily, don't worry about being a tattle tale. If someone is really bothering you and nothing else will work, please do tell someone. Is this guy annoying, a bully, or both? If you're dealing with a bully, you try the link below for more advice.

a bunch of boys at my school tease me because numero uno: i cannot keep a secret and everyone (including them) knows who i like! and number dos: i'm a vegetarian. what i do is either answer calmly and cooly then just ignore them, or completely ignore them altogether. he probably teases you because he likes you, a couple of these 'mean' boys that tease me have already asked me out! i hope my advice helps and jemma is right: if that boy is a bully just TELL someone already, before he really hurts you! tell me how it works out, ok?

boys are complete jerks!
Just ignore them or say "Oh yeah, you can speak!" OR say "Pick on someone ur own size!" If that boy is a bully then you MUST TELL a adult tht u trust! Ok? Tell me how it works out!
i feel the same way about this about this boy in my class he calls me names and bullies me you should tell ur teacher or parent because sometimes it can get out of hand trust me it's the right RIGHT thing to do!!!!!Don't worry about being a tatle tale if anyone does make fun of u for being a tatle tale and bothers you ignore them and plus it's not like they will tell the whole school or anything!!!!!!!!!!!!Well, hopefully not!!!!!!!!!!!!!Good Luck!!!!:-):-D
The samething goes on in my class he always teases me and one time i had to chase him around the room but i never did once have to tell on him or he did not call me names anyway don't worry about being a tattle tale the thing is to GET THE BOY TO STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GOOOOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!! :-] ;):-D HAHAHA
Dont worry about being a tattle tale it's probably the most affective way to solve your problem. Being called a tattle tale is better than being annoyed by someone every second!

It stinks when a friend thinks it's funny and cute when someone is really bothering you. You should think twice before counting them as BFFs.
I am really haveing the same problem but I have a guy teacher and he says to check the drama at the door. But even then the boys who are being mean always talk about my boyfriend by calling him fat or fatty or superfatty and it is just plain mean. They also talk about my father because my parents got a divorse when I was in kindergarten and now I am in the 6th grade so it's been a while but I see my dad ever tuesday is I still see him. So now I am still haveing the same problem what should I do???
I'm in middle school now so my school has this system called the pink sheet system(pss)cool right pink paper...oo sorry anyway,you have to list who was involed and what happened.they also have a witness protection program.Last year in 5th grade,I tried to ignore them and not fight fire with fire.Sometimes it's hard.The next time he does it just laugh and he will feel embarresed because you turned the whole situation around.GOOD LUCK!
Most parents would say that he probably likes you, and I will tell you from expierience... he probably does (as long as he's not a full blown bully). So ignore him, or be straight up and ask him why he's doing this, that's what I did to the boy annoing me, and now we are an entirely happy couple.
boys are really rude sometimes but you have to stand up for yourself!! have you tried asking your friends to stand up for you?? maybe if you tell them whats wrong they will want to help you?!
If boys make fun of you, you shouldn't let them bother you. Don't be afraid to tattle tale. Tell someone you trust to help you. Also, if a boy makes fun of you, it usually means they like you!
Oh My Gosh!!!!! I no how you feel. Guys in my class ALWAYS annoy me and it's really annoying. As my own opinion don't be afraid to stand up for yourself it's one of the things you should do continuosly becayse you should stand up for your own rights. Also the guy may have a crush on you if he teases you a lot and that's actually kind of normal. I MUST agree some or maybe most guys are jerks that never know when to be quiet. I'm only 11 and PLENTY of guys tease me, so I understand that it's really annoying. Although you should really tell on them if they're annoying non-stop. Although you're not really a tattle tale if you tell on them like that. A tattle tale is when someone tells on a person who is doing little things like using the same coloured marker as you. So anyway just confront that person and tell them to stop or just tell on them the next time that person bothers you.

my friends mom tolled her that when a boy teases you it means he likes you. now, i don't know if thats true, but it could be possible.
When guys bug me I just ignor them. (Or annoy them back, but that doesn't really work.) But if it's really bothering you, tell an adult.
What i think is that boys dont know how to say i like you maby one of there friends dosent like that girl so he is mean to her because that friend.
just agnor them and say "what do you want"
and i know how you feel there is alot of annoying people in my class and school...
I'm so sorry Emily!
You could..... um....OH! You could try to ignore them, and if that doesn't work, or they keep bothering you, you could still tell a teacher, and ask if they will have a little talk with the boy who's bothering you. Don't worry about your friends, because sometimes, your friends just won't stand up for you. That's sometimes the same with me! Ooh, I hate it!!!!
I hope this works!
Oh my gosh! I had this exact issue when I was the 6GG (6th grade girl)!!! This guy was being really annoying so I just ignored him. I later found out that he liked me and just didn't know how to tell me.
Good luck!
Let it die. This just needs time and eventually he will see that he was wrong and is wrong doing what he is to you. Someday he will forget all this childish stuff and come back wanting to make friends. So just leave and be patient.hope this will work.good luck :)
tell or else ,this boy at my school it was his birthday and a couple of his mates strangled him and punched him in the stumech and the worst part was he was crying and he sits right next to me in class + the teacher did not even noetes until a bff asked why he was crying,so pleeeeeeas tell.!!!!!
First build up your own courage. Trust me i have been teased before, if you are confident in you and show it he will be less likely to tease you. He actually might like you, see if the teasing is playful or just downright mean. hope it gets better
-*:)
ingnor him he probly likes u if i were u i would not talk to him he probly just wants atinttion by girl
I feel exactly the same way because there is this this boy in my class who always emaresses me and sarcasticly says will you go out with me all the time annoying heh!
All I can say is stand up for yourself he might die down a litltle on the bullying
He is making fun of you to get your attention. More than likely the reason he is doing this is because he likes you.
Try being REALLY nice to him and see how he takes it. Or say something smart in reply to him if he teases you verbally. Or you can act as if he weren't there. When I used to go to school (I'm home schooled now), there was this boy who used to tease me A LOT. I used to get really mad at him, and I told him to stop it, in a really serious voice. After a while, he finally owned up that he really liked me. That could be the case in your situation. I hope this was helpful! :-)
well Emily, you are not alone. I'm 12 and have those problems. A guy at my scholl talks about me saying i'm fat and everything, and all of his friends laugh. I just know it will all come back to him.
boys are like that they make fun of people and he probably does it to catch your attention. They think it will make them seem cool and hot to girls, but actually them seem like JERKS!
I have to say boys are JERKS!But stand up for yourself.Show him he's no better than you are! Make girls proud of who we are!
I'm sorry but I accidentally came upon this website for girls. One thing, I'm a boy. But boys tease girls cuz they like them, but if it's anything mean, that means the girls just needs to tell him. I teased a girl I liked in seventh grade, but then I didn't know it was bothering her. She told me and I stopped. Well I better go before one of the pink lockers get me. Bye!
boys are rude sometimes but all the boys in myclass are nice and i have the same prob but i told and the kids r from diffrent classes.
pretend like u don't care and they will quit teasing u. TRUST ME!!!
It's actually really important if that boy is teasing you. but ignoring would make him stop. Trust me, I've gone through that. A kid at VBS kept making fun of me.
wow some friends you have . just ignore the boy and if the boy doesn't give up on teasing you then you NEED to tell some one. try a councilor. the boy has no right to tease you.and if your friends won't stick up for you then find a friend or friends that will. TRY TELLING THE BOY THIS:STICKS AND STONES CAN BREAK MY BONES, BUT WORDS CAN NEVER HURT ME. try thinking that to yourself too. trust me that will help once it starts to kick in your mind. TELL THE BOY TO STOP. BETTER YET TRY TO TELL THE BOY TO STOP NEAR THE TEACHER.
DONT WORRY ABOUT BEING A TATTLE TALE. YOU NEED TO TELL SOME ONE. BOYS HAVE NO RIGHT TO TREAT GIRLS LIKE THAT. I FEEL VERY STRONG ABOUT THAT.
