(I want to mention this might be the wrong classification for this, but I'll stick to what I believe it to be known as.)

  Last year I got sexually assaulted by a guy we'll call crusty toe.  At the time it wasn't just me, but instead there were maybe 6 others involved. Each of us were either touched on the chest or upper thigh region. Yes, we told adults, but nobody seemed to care about the situation. I tried to throw him in jail but that didn't happen. I've gone through him harming me physically to touching me in places I am in no way comfortable with. This year I've been warning people, but nobody seems to listen. It's gotten to the point where I won't allow certain people to be alone with him. Literally today he decided to compliment my friend and "zone out" into her eyes. Obviously she was uncomfortable with this, but I cut him off eventually. I can't tell if I'm being overdramatic or if this is something that shouldn't be taken lightly. Also, I feel like it would be important to mention the fact that he became gay over the summer but turned bi and then straight and then bi again. He has decided to put his hand on my head and rough up my hair a few months ago, too. This one situation has managed to put stress on me and I'd like some information on what to do.

I guess the best way to combat this sort of stuff is to really rebuff it as soon as it happens. Be upfront and enforce your boundaries as much as possible. If the situation keeps on escalating remove yourself from places you know this person will be. I know it’s hard to draw lines in the sand as starkly as I am saying, but if you have exhausted the other options around you then you have to stand up for yourself
