wash your hands before you pick him up because he might not like what you have on them, or they might smell like food. I would recommend wearing some leather gloves for a while when you pick him up. Hold him often and pet him, be very gentle with him and don't make loud sounds. As he becomes more accustomed to you, he will see that you're not so bad, and you might just be kind of fun. You might give him little treats of lettuce or some other vegetable or some apple.

What the first answerer said is right on. Be patient with the gerbil and don't make any sudden moves that would scare him. He'll get used to you in time.

are you nice to him? how old are you? you sound very young ask your parents or go to the local pet shop or call and ask questions but I would say don't handle it to much you might be hurting it or holding it to hard If you had a monster holding you to hard and you could not speak there words (Lang) how would you act!!!! so just be very gentle with it and best bet ask a professional!!!!
Maybe you just got one who has a mean personality!
