There is this guy who thinks I'm his friend but I barely know the dude, I text him because I don't want to be rude to not respond. He crossed over my boundaries and managed to manipulate me into dropping the boundary. Afterwards he decided to deny everything that he had said when I was helping him and made me feel stupid afterwards for sending some links for him to contact when he feels low. When we met up, he tried kissing me, he wanted to wrap his arm round me but I said no, he's been obsessively staring at me since January of 2021 but we go to different schools now (been like this since September of 2022). I am not going to deny that he has this learning difficulty and I have no idea what to do. I understand that he finds it harder than others in social situations, I do take that into consideration when I speak to him. I don't know what to do and I have no idea if I should contact him again. I have told a friend about him and she says to block him on everything but I really do not know what to do anymore. If someone could please help me, that would be amazing.

Your friend is right, please block him.
Sometimes you have to be harsh when setting boundaries, whether it's someone with or without a learning/social disability. You don't even have to say anything to him, just block him or ignore any of his future messages. He obviously does not comprehend boundaries and it's not your job to teach him how to respect boundaries.
Keep yourself safe. If anyone ever makes you uncomfortable, cut them from your life. You don't need to feel guilty. The person on the other end will move on faster than you might realize.

Thank you so much - I had blocked him on everything I had without letting him know. I feel better now thank you for your comment.
