A guy wants to ask me to a formal dance I have on Saturday! I don't know how to reject him because of my mutual friends?

He's one of those bad guys and I really don't wanna deal with the rest of his little group messing with me for the rest of the year and I don't want him to ask me to dance. Last time he got close to asking me I picked up my phone and said "hey babe"... I don't have a boyfriend. I thought that would make him back off but I still think that if I show up to the dance without a date he's gonna ask me to dance. I am by no means a shy person I mean I pied the most hated staff in the face. I also feel like it's gonna make it awkward between my guys friends that are friends with him. What do I do?

Do you have a male friend who would go as your escort if you explained the circumstances?

I’m confused on why u won’t go with him. Other than he’s a bad boy an friends with ur friends.
