He won’t stop asking

There’s this guy I went to high school and college with we were never close, just classmates. Lately, he keeps messaging me saying he wants to “come over and catch up.” The weird part? He’s never even been to my house before.

Whenever I try to politely say we’re not really friends, he insists we are because “we went to high school together.” He never talks to me in public or acknowledges me when he’s with others, but keeps pushing to hang out privately.

It’s starting to feel really uncomfortable. I don’t want to be rude, but I’ve already tried to let him down nicely and he just won’t get the hint.

What would you say to finally make it clear without sounding like a total jerk?

Honey he’s being rude by over stepping boundaries and by being creepy, so be rude back if you have to. You guys were never friends so not like you’d be ruining anything. Just tell him to leave you alone, your not friends and block him
