if i am with my friends and one of us says something where it seems like there is absolutely no possible way 2 make it sound perverted one of them always finds a way 2 make it perverted. like if i were 2 say something like "do you want this banana" one of them would find a way 2 make it seem like i wanted them 2 take it the wrong way. its really starting 2 bug me and i've told them that it is and they said they would try 2 stop. that was 3 months ago and only one of my friends has stopped completely. is there any other way besides telling them it bugs me 2 get them 2 stop??

Ignore them, don't laugh at any of there jokes. Look at them like they are stupid!!! Eventually they will notice your cold shoulder. If they don't stop just make new friends.

Other than ignoring it, there's not much you can do. If your friends want to be grotty and say things like that then that's their choice. If you don't like it then you can either look the other way or start looking for some new people who have a bit more class and who are a bit more respectable. Sharing a dirty joke is okay once in a while but not all the time. I think you shoudl have another word to your friends and if it still doesn't ease up then go elsewhere. Ask them to tone it down but i don't think you should try to change them. If that's who they are, then thats who they are and it's up to you to either ignore it, or move on from it.

Walk away the next time one of them says anything in that sorts. If they ask you where you are going just let them know you don't have time for their silliness. Or just ignore the comment alltogether and move on with something else. Don't even laugh. It sounds like these friends are looking for attention and ignoring the comments may help. Good luck. I had the same problem at work and it worked for me.

Well, you could tell them that it's extremely immature, because it is. Another thing you could do is just absolutely not react at all when they do that, you know? Just continue the conversation as if you never heard it at all. That's what you do with little children and since they are acting like children, that's how you will have to treat them.

If he had intercourse with a 22 12 months previous, it extremely is seen statutory rape. you may tell an expert discern, in line with danger a coaching councilor at school. in spite of if it is not real, a minimum of it extremely is going to likely be a awaken call for him. in line with danger he grow to be sexually abused or maybe he's being sexually abused. have you ever talked on your mum and dad or an older sibling/cousin approximately this? each and every time he says something that makes you uncomfortable, bypass away- inspect him with none thoughts on your face and in basic terms say "ok... nicely, bye." and turn and bypass any incorrect way. tell some one nonetheless, it must be a cry for help.

Ignore the comments and don't laugh, grimace, or anything. They are looking for attention. If you give it to them, positive or negative, they will continue their behavior. Extinguish it with no reaction.
Another solution might be to substitute the behavior with something else. Have them do something else every time they think they have to tell a bad joke.
Whatever you do, be bold, specific, and consistent. If not, they will not change.

Part of being a teenager means you get to giggle when people talk about sex. It's still very novel.
Unless they're cursing all of the time or saying racial slurs, I don't think you can ask them more than once to stop making sex jokes out of everything. Just ignore them. They will grow out of it, I swear.
That is, unless they become frat boys.

Unfortunately today that is how people think it is a sign of the times. There is no other way other than to tell them to stop or to stop hanging around with them. I knwo you dont want to do that so keep telling them and hope they listen.

They will not learn until some lets them know it is unattractive. If you say it they will most likely think or say you are stuck, prude, etc.
Let them know you would rather be a stuck up, prude the a loose, perverted woman.
Obviously they don't think they are worth very much.
Good luck.

she's just trying to be funny and get attention. you've already tried talking to her about it so the next step is just ignoring it. the next time she makes a perverted comment, just don't acknowledge it... even in a negative way. the less attention she gets, the less inclined she is to do it again. it might take awhile, but it will work. if not... God help her.
