And I know to go to the principal and stuff but they always be telling me oh i was just playing! you get me??Well, if your principal has any guts at all, (s)he won't buy the old "I was just playing" excuse. You ask how "in the nicest way" you can get this to stop? The answer is, you can't ; not in a nice manner, that is. Nothing personal, but teenagers don't understand "nice." If they did, they wouldn't be behaving in this manner to begin with ; or at least they would have stopped the minute they realized you don't like it. You're going to have to get nasty, and that means going to the principal and possibly the authorities (depending on your principal's response or lack thereof.) If the principal doesn't respond in an assertive manner, then you and your parents will have to take legal action. Does your boyfriend truly understand what's going on? Is he the protective type? Not that I would want to advocate instigating anything but if he's a little bigger and stronger than the guys who are hassling you, maybe he can intimidate them into stopping.

You probably need to be more assertive.

When someone is trying to touch you stop, hold out your hand with your palm up - in a sort of 'stop' gesture - and say, "please don't do that again.". Don't get into an argument, just be absolutely brief and walk away without engaging with them.

If the girl hits on you say to her - "Please leave me alone, I'm not interested". Again, don't discuss this with her, just make your point and keep walking.

If you don't want people's attention - don't look at them or talk to them and and don't hang around where they are. If they flirt - don't flirt back.

Well, you're in high school. Boys are IMMATURE! Well, they never really do grow up, but, they are very immature at that age. First, for the boyfriend. If he is getting mad at you and he sees that you are not leading these guys on in any which way, tell him how you feel and that its not right for him to be mad. If he cant take it, clearly he is the wrong guy for you! Secondly, the girl? Ew, be like hi, im not a lesbian thanks and walk away! Thirdly, ignore the guys. dont let them touch you! Be a boss and stand up for yourselF walk the halls like you own the place and use the fact that the guys like you to your advantage!
