Hm, I would first start with telling that person I am not keen in talking with him/her. If they keep coming back, then I will just ignore them like how I ignore insurance agents who approached me while I was walking towards the train station and I have signaled to them that I am not keen but they just kept following my path so I just give them the cold shoulder. If the person become very drastic, like stalking you home etc, then I will call the cops definitely

Hm.. I must emphasize that I will call the cops in ONLY if the person becomes very drastic. Unless I know that he doesn't meant any harm (other than just consistent pestering), then I will just ignore. Maybe I get your question wrongly. Do you mind giving me a clearer picture of the scenario that you are referring to? Is that person someone who takes an interest in you and would like to get to know you and somehow know of the ways to contact you thus keep calling and bothering you (like a repeated process and you would like to know what's the reaction to stop this repeating process)? Or just someone like a stranger walking up to you and trying to talk to you (such as a sales person doing sales and it's a one time process)?

I think if I had a friend that I didn't really want to talk to and he or she was trying to talk to me, I would probably pretend like I didn't see them. I would ignore them unless they were right next to me nagging me to talk to them. I don't really want to be any meaner to them, so I don't think I would tell them that I don't want to talk to them or for them to go away. I would find a way to deal with it if we did start talking. I think while we were talking, I would probably try to hint at him or her that I'm kind of busy and I don't really have time to talk right now because I need to go somewhere or do something. I don't want to be too rude, but I also can't help it if I don't really want to talk to them. If I really despised the person, I would definitely hint at them earlier in the conversation. If they were just annoying for that moment but they were overall a good person, then I would feel guilty for ignoring them and I'd continue to talk for a while before I hint at them. I think it just varies with who I'm talking to for me.

Thats good ,act as if he is wonderful ,what can be better than that .Yes that is also true we have think twice if we should really tell him that he should really move away ,but thats where these situations arise,that we can't tell them anything and we have to think of new tactcics to avoid them.

Simple I have had this problem in the past and I just totally ignore them. It might take awhile but it worked for me.
