writes:At work there is a guy who constantly texts me, telling me how much he likes me, how pretty I am, etc., but he knows that I am still in high school and 5 years younger. He will not leave me alone even though i have stopped texting him and avoid him when we have similar schedules. How can I get my point across?

 tell a supervisor, this is sexual harassment. he/she may even get the guy fired which i think should be enough of a disincentive for him to keep contact with you.

If you've told him repeatedly then embarrass him so that he wouldnt want to talk to you anymore? Or try having someone talk to him for you. an older brother maybe?

You shouldn't have to tell him more than once, and what he is doing is harassment. If you work for a small firm, go to the manager. This is a serious situation, and the firm could face legal issues should they not step in and make it a safe place for you to work. Note, in this case, it is not actually needed to be a dangerous situation, you simply need to feel uncomfortable.Tell someone what he is doing and I hope that they will step up. We had an I.T. guy do that to a young lady and he was immediately fired. No discussion, no warning - gone.

Since he isn't listening to you, I would have someone else do it, like your father or your mother, if you have an older brother or sister have them do it. He sounds obsessed and when someone is like that they probably won't listen to you. You can block phone numbers with certain cell phone services, I have verizon and I blocked all my spam texts.
