'This guy wants me to indulge in sex chats'

The truth is he wants us to take forward our online relationship to the level where we are comfortable sharing sexually explicit chat. But I'm not up for it so I told him that I can't participate in it. I've stopped talking to him altogether but he has been harassing me by sending dirty pictures in which he usually poses naked. I'm too embarrassed to share this with anybody else.

Dear Ulka,
As you rightly say he is a jerk, so why are you even interacting with him? Just delete him from your account. If he still persists through requests, ignore him. If things go beyond a certain limit, speak to your elders and you can complain to the cyber crime cell folk. Take a family member into confidence and relate what this guy has been up to. He definitely seems to be a psycho. Remember the next time when you befriend anyone on social media, be careful as you do not know who is who.
