The first thing you need to do to get a guy to stop bothering you is to reflect on your own actions and behavior. Ask yourself how you react to a boy’s teasing: Do you …

  • Laugh and pretend it’s funny?

Females are trained from a young age to know that our actions, words and behaviors affect others. But men are very different from women. For example, did you know that ‘teasing’ is a key way that guys relate to each other? Try it yourself. Observe how the boys interact with each other. Look at what they say.

3 Tips On How To Get A Guy To Stop Bothering You …

1. Don’t pretend it’s fun when it’s not. Guys are NOT mind readers. If you laugh at his jokes, your demeanor tells him that his demeanor is funny, pleasant, and amusing to you. Since guys like to hear girls laugh, it’s only natural that he continues to make fun of you. Just to hear you laugh.

2. Do something different. If your usual reaction to being teased by a guy is to get angry and he still won’t stop, it’s time to CHANGE your reaction. Personally, I ignore rude comments and stare at the person speaking, or in another direction. Sometimes it is better to say nothing when there is nothing good to say.

3. Let him know that teasing hurts. Letting a guy know that teasing hurts is as simple as saying “Oh, that hurts.” A decent boy will stop bothering you. If he doesn’t stop, even after you’ve said it hurts, it’s time to move on and spend time with guys and girls who care enough to stop doing what hurts other people’s feelings.
