tell each of them to cut it out except your crush! then that way your hitting 2 birds with one stone

1) youll stop the others

2) youre hinting at your crush that you like him and hopefully you guys can then hook up

Lizz agony auntWell, for starters you can stop acting like you like it. Tell him them to cut it out. Don't laugh or even crack a smile. Just look at them and say can you please cut it out with a serious look on your face. You don't necessarily have to be stern or angry unless they continue and your request goes ignored. Then be more stern until you get your point across. Make it an unpleasant experience for them and they will stop. Honey, if you don't like something then don't pretend like you do unless you want it to continue. Apply this to everything in your life and things will go a little smoother for you.

kenny agony auntI think you have got to tell them in a stern way that you don't want to be picked up anymore. I think because you laugh and slap their arms they are thinking you are ok with it and seeing it as a green light to do it again. Once they see you are not happy with it they will soon stop.

Good luck x

Mistify agony auntYou simply say to them - don't touch what you can't afford.

They are probably doing it in a joking way, because they see you as a friend. That's a good thing. Maybe just say OUCH once, and see what happens. When we are little, guys and girls play rough sometimes, but guys have to learn sometimes that girls aren't rough players anymore, and that they have to be a little more gentle. Or just honestly speak to one of them, and tell him why you don't like it so much anymore. Word will soon get around.

Good luck...
