Clarifying your position
Responding with comments such as, "I'm not interested in a relationship/being friends with you at this time," or "I'm dating someone else," can lead a person to believe that you would date or be friends with them, if the timing were right or if they keep pressing the issue.

Always state romantic or social rejections clearly

Ignore and do not respond to further attempted interactions
Your stalker may try to deliberately rile you by making provocative comments if he or she gets close enough to you or uses messages to do so. Any response, even a negative one only feeds into the stalker's belief that he/she is getting to you. Be strong and keep walking or refuse to press that recall button. Do not press reply. Just ignore the comments - otherwise, you are adding fuel to the fire. If the stalker is an ex, it may help to read How to end a controlling or manipulative relationship.

Never attempt to reason with or appease a stalker. This only reinforces his/her belief that his or her tactics are working.
