What's your script?
Making a sprite follow another sprite is pretty simple:
It could be that your sprite is facing in the wrong direction, because of its costume. Take a look at this:

It might be that your sprite was drawn so that its face is on the left, which would look like this:
But note that the sprite is still following the mouse (its target), not going away from it. I think something would have to be wrong in your script for the sprite to be moving away from whatever it's following.

when green flag clicked
forever
point towards [target v]
if <(distance to [target v]) > (10)> then

end
