There's this boy in Year 10 at the guys school down the road from my school, who won't stop texting and e-mailing me saying how much he loves me! I don't understand how he got my email or phone number, but I asked my friend who's in his class and it is definitely his number. I've had a ridiculous amount of missed (deliberately) calls from him over the last week or so. If he see's me and my friend walking to school, he'll follow, like he doesn't think we know he's following. Okay, it was flattering on the first day or so, but now it's starting to get really disturbing and strange.
I sent him an e-mail yesterday saying, 'I don't know you, and you don't know me at all. Please leave me alone. Thank you.'
But low and behold, who did we catch following us to school this morning?
Does anyone know if there is something I can say to him which won't hurt his feelings so badly and let him know I want him to leave me alone?

Thanks. I'd appreciate it :)

Why don't you tell him this in person:
"Your creeping me out. Your being a creep. Stop texting me, emailing me and telling me you love me when I don't even know who you are. Leave me alone or I'll tell my parents in which will tell yours."

If not tell your parents, I'm sure your dad would love to have a word or two with this boy.

Don't worry about letting him easy- this kind of behavior needs to be stopped, it could actually land him in jail someday if this becomes a pattern.

I think you should talk to your parents, that would be the most responsible next step.

They can help decide how they would like to handle the situation with you.

I agree about telling your parents.

1) Definitely tell your parents.

2) Ignore him. Do not give him any attention. Giving him any attention will give him hope.

3) If 1) and 2) fail, then you might need to contact the police to get a restraining order (but talk to your parents about this part).

Tell your parents, someone besides your friends needs to know about his behavior.

Let an adult confront him, not you.

You could also mention it to your teacher who may be able to comminicate with a teacher at his school.
