Creepy brother in the hall won’t stop touching me, please help

maybe tw?

hi guys i am pimo. my parents are fully pimi. as we all know tonight is the memorial, and i’m having a panic attack in my room because im so scared to have to interact with this brother tonight.

he WONT leave me alone. the last time i went to the meeting he wouldn’t stop talking to me and he makes me so uncomfortable, he kept trying to get me to go out to lunch with him and a couple other people and he always gives me hugs. i try so hard to avoid him but he always comes up to me and its not just a quick hello either, he comes up, hugs me, and talks to me for like 20 minutes. he is so creepy, his breath is terrible, he has beady eyes, he always touches me even though i make it so obvious i dont wanna be touched. i have even told him outright to please not hug me. i have pretended to be feeling sick and he still does it. he pushes my body against his and i FUCKING HATE IT. i feel so disgusting

i hate this cult. i told my parents over and over again he makes me so uncomfortable, and they say he is just like that to everyone. but he isn’t. he only does it to young sisters and he even asked my dad for my phone # to “give me some encouragement” to come to the meetings and my dad GAVE IT TO HIM. i ignore his messages and then he comes up to me at the meeting and asks “are you getting my messages sister?”

he scares me so bad and he wont ever leave me alone, i cant go to that congregation without him trying to touch me and give me hugs and talks to me for sooooo long. also hes like in his 30s!!!! im not a minor but im 18, i tell him im not the hugging type but he wont stop hugging me every time i see him. it makes me feel so disgusting. i just wanna cry. i cant avoid going tonight, my parents are forcing me(i still live with them til i save enough to move out but i live in california and its so expensive to move out)i keep shaking thinking about it. its making me SO scared. i dont want to feel his hug tonight, he holds on to me for so long. and even when i WAS a minor, he still gave me hugs and he has kissed me on my cheek before when i was only 15. i told my parents he kissed me on the cheek and my mom thought it was a little weird but she says he is just being loving. i really dont feel comfortable around him and they just say he is a loving brother and acts like this with everyone.

my hands are shaking, my stomach hurts, and im starting to cry. i hate this fucking cult. i fucking hate it. he gives me pervert vibes and he stares at me. he hugs me for too long and no matter how much i try to avoid him he always looks for me.

can anyone please help. im so scared for tonight i know he’ll be there. does anyone have an experience with creepy “brothers” at the hall not taking no for an answer? he has followed me out to my car before, he makes me feel so unsafe. i want to stay in my car til the start of the memorial but my parents wont let me. i just wanna cry. i feel so broken. i feel like its genuine harassment because ive told him so many times i dont really like to be touched and i have tried to just shake his hand but he always gives me a hug and i hate it. he stands too close to me. he looks me up and down. im having such a panic attack right now i just wanna get tf out of this cult. im sorry this is so long. i have no pimo friends or even pomo people to talk to, this subreddit is literally all i have.

i dont know how to make him leave me alone, does anyone have any suggestions. i dont wanna be touched by him anymore i feel SO uncomfortable. my parents act like im crazy when i say he scares me. this cult just enables perverted people like him.
