A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Good day,

So I've been friends with a guy for roughly a yr plus. He is cool. We talk relationships, future jobs etc. I like our friendship but he wants more and I could tell because he does these things like always tagging me in stuff, texting me everyday and wanting to see me. He already asked me to be his girlfriend but I told him am not into him like that. These days he keeps taking my pics off FACEBOOK and putting them on his page. I won't mind if it was a pic of us having fun and he put it up and tagged me but the problem is he has pics of other girls (who I know) in his pictures as well. Its like a freaky girl pic collection. He had asked my permission and I said NO then he cussed me out and said he took it down but I checked and he still has it. I love my self image and integrity.

I dont want people to think we had a thing or I am his woman. How do I get that pic down or at least make him? I tried reporting it to FB and I asked him, clearly he doesn't respect me enough to. I dont feel comfortable with this!

Aunty BimBim agony auntReport the images to facebook again, also get family and friends to report them. Just keep reporting the photos as a violation of privacy.

You could also consider putting your request to him in writing, couch it in terms that suggest you have sought legal advise and the letter is the first step in your process.

You could also name and shame him publicly on your facebook page, put a link to where he has posted your pictures and add a comment along the lines of "Help wanted: Joe Blogss (give his real name) has taken my photos and put them on his wall. He did ask permission and I said NO, but he took them anyway. Any suggestions on how I can get these pictures removed"

Honeypie agony auntYou DO know that you can set your setting so he CAN'T see your pictures and thus can't "take" them? Right? PRIVACY setting. This guy is NOT respecting you or your wishes.

Report it to FB again. And KEEP doing it till the pictures are down.

And why are you friends with someone who cusses you out when you tell them no? WTF?! kind of friend is he?

First off, block him and make your profile private so that others (not in your friends list) can't see your pictures or what you post. I think his clingy behaviour (he certainly doesn't seem 'cool') has been throwing out warning signs earlier but you didn't pay heed - next time a friend has feelings for you that you don't return just cut contact otherwise you might be giving him false hope.

About your actual problem, other than asking him to take the pictures down, or reporting to Facebook itself there doesn't seem to be any other options - maybe legal action? See the following links/instructions for more:

If the friend uploaded the photo to their account and tagged you, go to your Activity Log in left column select 'Photos' filter--then below that select 'Photos of You' sub-filter click the icon on right side of item box and the menu will give option Report/Remove tag.
