Not into him, not into telling him
Ok, so I have this friend who I'll call "Zach." So, Zach and I have been friends for awhile, but lately he's been extremely annoying. I know that he likes me, I've already turned him down, but he still won't leave me alone. Wanting me to sit by him at lunch, constantly talking to me in class, waiting for me at my locker, calling me pretty in every language he knows how, and leaning all up on me. It is extremely annoying, and I've acted annoyed, like not sitting by him, not talking to him as much, got mad, and he still doesn't get it. I've told him he's annoying but he still won't quit. I don't want to end up screaming at him, but I can not keep going on like this. And the worst part is that I read my horoscope for all of December, and it says that a friend has been annoying me lately (Zach), and Mars will make it impossible to avoid confrontation on the 5th, that is the day of a major dance at our school. I've already dreaded telling him no if he asks to dance with me, but now I'm scared I will end up being so annoyed at that point I'll just blow up in front of the whole school, or seriously hurt him. What do I do without sounding cheesy or hurting him? I'm not good at the whole talking about feelings, so I try to avoid the whole thing but I don't think I can keeping avoiding this. HELP ME!
