🎓 academic/school AIO. This guy from my class NSFW

My teacher told me to socialize more with my classmates. Im a shy person. This boy I sit with started chatting with me then asked me for my Instagram. I was really happy since I dont have many friends.

First day of talking and three messages later I get this. Am I overreacting? Is this some sort of humor I just don't get? I'm not sure how to feel but I don't even feel comfortable to sit with him anymore.

Excuse my broken grammar and the dry humor in the photos provided please :(

OP please make sure you do tell both the principal and the police, this a threat and you're in danger around this guy. If you care to update us afterwards you will bring relief to many

I'll make sure to tell the principal and my head teacher on Monday right away. I didn't even know it was this big of an issue and thought it was a joke at first. Im so so glad people opened up my eyes. I was dumb.

Girlie with all due respect this isn’t a ‘wait til Monday’ thing, the guy threatened to SA you😭 this gotta go to the teacher, principal, any security personnel, and honestly I would go to police. Even if you don’t feel in danger, scare the shit out of him because I promise you that if you don’t show him how fucked that is, he will continue to do it and get away with it

I understand but all my teachers are 'off' as they say once its the weekend. That means that whatever I send them they wont read until they're at work again,which is on Monday. It sucks.

That does suck :( I’d still send it anyway and title the headline “EMERGENCY” or something else. Also I’d still go to police over it, they’ll notify the school. I don’t know if this is college or HS, but the police will make sure they’re not “off” if a student is being threatened with SA

OP NOR you need to at the very least, send an email to the school and professor with the screenshots attached like immediately. I’d also contact the campus police if you live on campus or nearby housing. This is not something you take lightly and you need documentation before Monday.

That's good advice. As a dude/human, I just want to say he should be in jail for this. Good advice guys I hope she stays safe. Monday will be here soon enough. Enjoy your weekend.

My dear, do not go to school on Monday. It is not safe if you can't get a hold of admin until Monday morning. I get that they are "off duty" as I was a teacher and didn't like to check things on the weekends if I could help it. Place urgent or emergency in the subject line if you can. I can't stress this enough,DO NOT GO TO SCHOOL ON MONDAY.

Are your parents supportive? Can you get them to help you with this? I know going to the police seems extreme and also the police suck, but they should be notified and have a record of this. You need that documentation.

If there’s an electronic messaging system for your teachers/school go ahead and send the message now and follow up in person on Monday.

A surprising number of people still check their work messages in their off time (my physician for one).
