A guy I like at work has been joking around/teasting/flirting with me for the past 8 months at work and around July I was seriously thinking that he liked me. Turns out he went for another girl at work who is now off a few states over in college. He still continues to flirt with me and at first I was just like, ok whatever, I'll play along but now because I know he doesn't like me it's really bothering me.
I've asked advice on this before here and I've tried it all. I've ignored him, I've told him flat out that I don't want to joke around or have him bother me, I've been just downright mean, when he says something to make me laugh I just stare blankly at him like I give him the "you're an idiot" look. He told me that for once he wants to walk over to the counter and me be smiling at him, I said that's not going to happen and he said if he tripped would I laugh and I starting laughing and said yes.
I've told him to go away, I've tried to basically making it clear that I don't have a crush on him (if that's the reason he picks on me--to feed his ego). But he won't stop. He says he can let up on the throwing of napkins and stuff at me but he can't stop the tickling. What do I do? He's a nice guy but I'm really having a problem with him still flirting with me. I've asked him if he bothers anyone else this much and he says "no", I ask why me and he says "because it's fun".
Am I just supposed to be like you know what I like you and you joking with me isn't helping because I know you don't like me? (So it eventually turns awkward and he goes away?) I can't get over the guy if he continues to do this. I can't change my work schedule because of school. I have to be "nice" to him because we work together. He's not generally annoying or anything, he's only annoying me because he flirts and doesn't like me.
