What do you do if your friend's partner makes you uncomfortable?

He pokes me, touches me and says things that make me really uncomfortable, right in front of her.

I guess I can mention something to her but that feels uncomfortable too

Right now I just try to keep track of where he is so that I can keep my distance from him, but it's not always a solution as sometimes he sneaks up on me

well, I once just said in front of them both when i had similar experience .. ' that's something you should say to her instead of me, I am sure she'd like to hear it and probably would make her feel good"

then I told him privately, stop touching me. it makes me feel more awkward than I usually am

but back then I was way to shy to say...hey! stop it with the comments and touching!

now I would though

@Bexsy it's a hard thing to do! I am afraid to cause strife.

But like really, it's my body, please stay away

@caccoon maybe just tell her that. that you're not trying to cause a problem, but you don't like it. you're right, your body. you make the rules with it
