Got a lil situation.., creepy people! Options

[Jen]

Soooooooo. Awhile ago, my ex and I broke up (mutually, we're still friends).

Well, at my work, we have volunteers from high school that come in and help out. Anyway I became friends with a few of them, and added them on MySpace (mistake).

My ex (Peter) came in to volunteer once, and one of these high school volunteers (his name is B) took it upon himself to add Peter, even though he didn't really know him. Peter was like, whatever I'll add him, sure. No biggy, right.

Somehow, word got around about the reason my ex and I broke up (lying). Well, B took it upon himself to spam Peter's MySpace with a comment like.. "you assh-le, why'd you lie. i'd be lucky to have her. well, you lost your chance, now it's my turn."

What the hell? And he posted it 20+ times. He also has on his MySpace a section that says, "JENNIFER, I WISH I COULD TELL YOU I LOVE YOU!" WHAT THE HELL?!

Everytime I talk to him at work, he fidgits.. and doesn't look me in the eyes.. something's seriously wrong with him. I've been nice to him because that's just how I am.. but now this happened..

I'm a wee bit creeped out by this, okay.. maybe a lot. Should I take this to my supervisor?

I dare this kid to show up at work Monday.

Should I take this to my supervisor?

God, no. Clearly this kid is shy and inmature and possibly a bit of a loner. Tell him that while you don't like Peter's past actions you still like Peter and you are still friends. Tell him (B) that you won't put up with anyone bad-mouthing any of your friends, including Peter. Also tell him that some girls might see his behaviour as a little creepy and that while he might have had good intentions it isn't attractive.

You could leave it at that, or if you feel like being spiteful or a bit cruel you could go on to deliver one of the classic put-downs eg. "you are like a brother to me, you know that don't you?".
