Wear a massive crucifix under your shirt, and carry Holy water wih you at all times. If she gets too close, make like she's a vampire & shove the cross in her face & throw the Holy water at her.

- or -

Tell her she's put you off women for life & your going to become a monk, taking a vow of silence. If she argues, hold up a card saying that vow has just started.

So all of us old farts wouldn't understand? You know I do seem to remember being 15 once, but I'm sure I wouldn't be able to grasp what a 15 year old has to go through now.

As great as it sounds bob, crazy women are just that, crazy. i've had my share. I cant seem to date stable girls and i'm too nuts myself to have to be the stable one in a relationship...

As for your problem maskedviperus, you said you're already with someone else, so she should get the hint, just ignore/avoid her untill she does. Either that or fix her up with one of your friends who doesn't know shes a spaz. Although i do like Johnnys second suggestion and may have to file that away for possible future use...

If you want it to end fast, I'm thinking phone. You've obviously got a emotional investment in this psycho in training and she in you. Pick up the phone and talk to her and explain why you don't want any further attention from her. People like closure. That's why we have open casket funerals instead of just hiring someone to dispose of the body. Don't be a jerk, don't get mad, just calmly cooly end it. The opposite of love is not hate or anger. It's indifference.

The other option is to ignore her until she goes away. Unless she's boiling your pet rabbit, she ain't hurting nothing by pining for you.

I've always wondered why you go in for open casket funereals in such a big way in the US ... putting the coffin into the furnace, or filling in a grave seems final enough to me.

It's hard to date what doesn't exist. J/K but girls have it rough trying to find their place in society nowadays. The advice I give to my 18 year old stepson and my 17 year old stepdaughter is to go out with as many peolpe as they can and have fun. They learn more about themselves as people and it also helps them to recognize good and bad relationships. I try to tell them not to get too serious with one person because at the ages they are it is rare that either they or there boyfriend/ girlfriend are mature enough to carry out a significant long term relationship. Another thing I have noticed is some people have to have a boyfriend/ girlfriend. This is because they are not comfortable with themsleves. Take the time to get to know yourself without being with someone. A strong relationship is greater than the sum of its parts, but not if you are going into it incomplete as a person and needing that other person.

Wow, that went a little long. As far as your situation. I'm curious as to why you can't tell the ex that your no longer interested. It seems as if you don't want to sever that tie which tells me that you aren't completely happy with the girl you are with. Maybe you should take some time off and figure out yourself.

I'd say it's more personal to say your last goodbyes to the body of your loved one than to a box.

Back to the topic at hand, I'd recommend telling her calmly that you are with your new girl now, as she should have seen when she followed you. Tell her that she will always have a special place in your heart and wish her well in the future. Then you can drop the pre-emptive strike of "We can still be friends, can't we?"

Breakups are like band-aids, it's best to get rid of the old one with one fast, quick rip.

Grrrr, Gumby beat me to it. I like the idea of turning the tables and using the female's most common phrase after breaking up. She should definately get the picture then.
If not, then she is probably the Fatal Attraction type to begin with and you don't need her anyway.

LMAO...

Um.. I think AntiM said it best, dear. You don't have to be mean. Try the nice route first. Tell her that you're with someone new, and things aren't going to work out between you two, romantically. Tell her that there are other guys out there, and she should move on. If that doesn't deter her, take it from there.

Edit: If she's slightly off her rocker, "Can we be friends" may not do the job. She might think "Ooh, he wants to be friends! Maybe I can win him back evetually!" And then, things could get hairy. Use that line with caution.
