Annyoingest kid ever

HI well this subject is not nearly as bad as the others but it still depresses me

Well im in year 8 at highscool. And one of my old friends from primary or elementry school (for u Americans) has came to our school and hes been annoying ever since he came.

Me and my friends don't like him anymore. He follows me like a lost dog and whenever my friends and I get the chance we run away from him..including me:( but he is in my class for most subjects and he keeps talking to me, when I don't want to, and he sits next to me aswell.( my best friends arn't in my class but i still have friends)

none of my other friends want to hang around me anymore cause hes around me. They like me but not him. He has other friends but he dosnt hang around them for some reason.

I don't know how to get rid of him. I cant stand it
my friend says 1 of us should go up and say to him that we don't want him in our group anymore
mum says i should lose contact gradually but i can't bear a day!!
its been 2 terms ( 30 weeks) of school and he has made new friends but dosnt hang with them

WHAT DO I DO???!?!?!?!?!

thnks

Ok so first of all you need to be nice to him because he is still adjusting to his new school.
but i agree its been a while and he doesn't seem like he is adjusting still.
i would talk to him nicely and explain, "we dont really have that much in common anymore" .
and he should understand that and make new friends.
stuff like this is never painless it can hurt him, but you have to tell him.
if you wanna talk more pm me
:)

well he doesnt sound like a bad person but if hes so annoying than just ignore him

[olYmPic]

[Ethannnnnn]

Because its mean.
Be upfront with him and tell him what you feel.

Don't pussy foot around people just be yourself don't give him any special treatment just go around ur routine and don't make much of an impression on him. He will soon move on if he has other friends. As a last resort LAST resort tell him that he isnt mixing well in the group and he needs to behave different or piss off. He will go away at this point no-one will change there personality for some1 bsaically because its impossible and yous dont seem close.
