Search Results: making them stop the teasing

Hey everyone! I like this guy A LOT, right? It was going pretty well till my friends overdid the whole teasing me and making it obvious that I like him thing and that ended up really annoying him cause they started tagging him in photos on Instagram, saying hi to him and messaging him a couple of times. I never wanted them to do any of that, and of course they did it without asking me, but that has made him get super annoyed at me too. Yesterday he messaged me and wasn't exactly that nice to me. He said that I need to tell myself and all of my friends that nothing will ever happen between us and that what they're doing is extremely frustrating and that we need to stop. He also says that it is my fault too because I'm the one who likes and loves him and I'm not stopping what they're doing. I found that stupid because I don't control my friends and I ask them to stop but they don't and he knows that. He said some other things, but that doesn't matter. He really made it seem like he iked me and we were doing really well but I'm seeing him once or twice this week and it's going to be so awkward. What do I do? Should I talk to him? Need urgent help! Thanks in advance. My friend reckons that when we see him, she should go up to him alone and tell him to stop taking it out on me cause I can't help the fact that I like him. If she doesn't see him, she might text him and tell him. Is that a good idea?
