Rejecting Boys HELP!

Cynthia

I have been friends with this boy let’s call him Jacob. in the begging of the year Jacob’s friend Daniel (fake name) told me Jacob liked me I thought he was lying because Daniel liked me a year ago. Until now me and Jacob continue to be friends and one day he texts me on Snapchat asking me out. I responded I will think About it a couple day later I respond “we should stay friends...” I said that for multiple reasons like I’m not ready for a relationship and couldn’t see myself dating him when I only see him as a friend. I asked him if he was mad at me and he said no. After that he skipped the class we had together for a whole week and ignored me whenever I talked to him. Every time I walk past him and his friends he will whisper to them and they will look at me. A week goes by and this boy Liam (fake name) ask me out and I said no for the same reason. Now there all really good friends and all in the same class with me. On the day before Valentine’s Day Jacob kept making comments in class saying he wish he could buy something for Valentines directing to me and skipped class again on Valentine’s Day. Friday comes a long and he keeps laughing every time I get close to him. Everyone asking me that I rejected Jacob. He keeps on talking about me in class with his friends and looking at me. When he was with his friends he was calling my name trying to say he don’t like me but he obviously does. I didn’t mean to hurt him but he’s being so childish. What should I do? ( sorry for it being so long)
