Ok I am doing a course and I got friendly with a guy in my class. Purley platonic may I add. He is hard of hearing and english is not his first language. He can be nice or rude. He walks 8 miles to school and backeveryday as this is his fitness regime. And frequently naps and of course I fill him in. He canbe nice and I did felt sorry for him as my dad has hard of hearing so its tough. But lately he is becoming very disrespectful

the last straw came when he kept sniffing and caught my sleeve of my arm and tried to blow his nose. I gave out to him and he qas like ha ha but your jumper is so soft. Well I ate him I told how dare he

and I dont like it and I didnt like he tried to wear my scarf last week. I told him not to touch my things. And who ever was iny class I said it out straight.

This guy personal hygiene is so bad . Wears the same clothes every dat. I sit beside and a few times he has asked for help.

I just told him im too busy you have to ask some one else I can barly grunt hello to him at the moment

That's not very nice, Need. I don't think mentioned that about the guy in a derogatory way. I think the context is that he needs her help due to English not being his first language.

that should be 'I don't think OP mentioned...

Leelu6 · 20/01/2016 22:43

I don't drink, and i'm not sure what's wrong with me. They want to rule out pancreatitis.

I would love to lose a few pounds lol

Ginkypig · 20/01/2016 22:54

I think you need to tell him that from now on you need to focus on your own work and won't be able to help him from now on.

Stron, boundaried and consistent but nice.

Needfinsnow · 20/01/2016 22:56

And Leelu.. I think she is also English as a second language..so hardly helpful to him. Her posts are ridiculously littered with bad grammar and sounds very immature, her posts suggests adult learning, or at least post 16, but content leans towards a very child like age.

Tiggeryoubastard · 20/01/2016 22:58

He tried to wipe his nose on your sleeve and you gave it to him? I don't believe any of this.

Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost · 20/01/2016 22:59

You ate him. Confused.

BettyBleue · 20/01/2016 22:59

Creamponies, you should speak to one of the adults at your nursery school about your friend as it is very naughty of him to wipe his nose on your sleeve.

Leelu6 · 20/01/2016 23:00

Need - i can spot 6 or 7 grammar errors in your last post.

I think you can get the gist of what OP is saying quite clearly.

Cachareltastic · 20/01/2016 23:02

Cashmere babe?

creamponies · 20/01/2016 23:03

Ss I gave out to him its being disinfected now

Oh course. They have to rule out eith achol or gallstones. Have you been on new

meds that is the most likely cause of pancreatitis

Creamponies I love you Grin

Need Does it make you feel all big and clever to insult people with potential literacy issues?

BadLad · 21/01/2016 00:25

He tried to blow his nose ony jumper yesterday

Borrow something of his, disappear to the loo and wipe your arse with it.

Tiggeryoubastard · 21/01/2016 00:38

Why would you give him your sleeve?

Tiggeryoubastard · 21/01/2016 00:39

Or rather, why would you let him wipe his nose on it then complain?

WilLiAmHerschel · 21/01/2016 01:08

Op I think keeping your distance from him as much as you can is the best idea. He doesn't sound very respectful of you.

I hope you feel better soon. X

creamponies · 21/01/2016 01:39

Lol I never gave him permission to use my jumper in that way. He just decided to blow his nose of my arm sleeve of my favourite jumper.
I did give out to him but I dont think it registered in his mind as he asked me for help.
I think I just be civil but no more helping him

creamponies · 21/01/2016 01:42

Thst not a.bad.idea lol op. He is a total nutcase . Yes hun that how I feel very disrespected xx after all I tried to help him I just have to be more harderx

OP posts:
Tiggeryoubastard · 21/01/2016 01:50

Do you mean you did give it to him? You keep typing give out to him. Confused

GreatFuckability · 21/01/2016 02:01

'give out' means to tell him off.

Gruntfuttock · 21/01/2016 02:03

What does this mean OP?

"Well I ate him I told how dare he"

I know it must be a typo but can't work out what for (will probably realise as soon as I post this)

WilLiAmHerschel · 21/01/2016 02:03

'Give out' must mean she had a go at him or told him off. That's how it reads in context. I think it might be an Irish expression.

Gruntfuttock · 21/01/2016 02:05

Is "give out" to mean "tell off" a dialect phrase? Where is it from?
