And you boys only thought women did it....

POF - Found a guy that was blue eyed red headed...pretty decent lookin. Clicked on him and started up a conversation. Yesterday was pretty slow so I chatted with him. Felt ok enough with giving him my number to text, the app was having fits..

We texted some more and I got into bed, watched some tv, texted and kinda fell asleep on the guy, it was about 10:30
My last message to him was about the show I was watching, followed by lol.
This morning I wake up to:

"I could always come over when the kids are asleep"
"I'm tired of being alone...but whatever"
"I just want to get to know you face to face"
" R u ok"
"Did I make you mad"
"If you r not interested anymore, just let me know"
"Good Morning" - timestamp on this was 4 something AM
"I hope your ok"
"I hope you have a good day"

My picker is broken. :grumble:

    Haha!

    I highly recommend getting a free phone number from Google Voice. You can have the texts go to your phone and reply from that number. When someone goes creep-o on you like this feller, you can simply block them or even ditch the number and get a new one if you have to.

    I am jealous of your story, by the way. I'd call that a NSV.

    I thought I came off a little excited sometimes.... but this takes the cake I think.

    The bad thing is, I was interested....but am really turned off by this. What a shame.

    Men do it too, I agree.

    I met a guy from EHarmony for 1 hour to have a drink.
    He gave me WAY too many compliments, like every 3rd sentence but I was trying to let it go.
    I decided i woudl see him again, but later in the evening when we were texting he was so overboard.
    Talking about how beautiful I was, how he wants to take me to mexico, how could I like him.
    It was utterly pathetic so the short is, I first told him to lay off the compliments, then I told him it wouldn't work.

    He harrassed me in texts for over an hour, then the next day. Saying he was flustered by me, that we were meant to be together, blah blah.

    It was sadly pathetic although entertaining.

    I'm afraid this one is going to do the blow up thing too.
    I know that I kind of feel bad for feeling that way, because in a relationship I want to be complimented, I want to be "doted" on, but dayum, not this early and not like this.
    I understand it's lonely and I thank my lucky stars I have my kids to distract me from that deep lonely alone feeling, but he'll be ok, and I'll just go back to not looking for a little bit. (Little bit take it for what it is :laugh: )

    That's happened to me a couple times. I've learned to not go out with people that assume you are mad or ignoring them if you don't respond in what they consider a timely manner... especially at 4am.

    Yeah the "I could always come over when the kids are asleep" thing is a bit creepy.... but it also wasn't cool for you to just go to sleep without saying goodbye. There's nothing wrong with saying "I'm tired... I'll catch you later".

    When someone goes silent people do usually assume that they said something wrong. That or a meteor has ripped through the other person's house killing them instantly. Well... that's what I think anyway.

    And yeah... prolly not a good idea to give out your mobile number too quickly.

    Just my opinion.

    ps I'm also ginger... or was... sorta boring 'brown' now. Could explain a lot.

    My impression was that she wasn't intending to go to sleep, more that it just overtook her. That happens to me too, I fall asleep without planning to often while reading, in front of the TV or a passenger in a car... stuff like that.

    It worries me that more and more online guys are suggesting a house visit for a first meeting. Just ignore the cheeky monkey and he might think twice the next time he makes such an inappropriate suggestion ! :grumble:

    The behavior the OP describes is fairly commonplace amongst men. Men can have a clingy component to them. Maybe overly aggressive when they perceive there is something out there they want.

    Things need to develop in a more orderly fashion to be successful.

    Again its just like the naked picture thing. They suggest it on the very tiny tiny chance you'll say yes... I had a guy get offended when I said I didn't want to meet him at his house for the first time and then he got all butt hurt about how I didn't trust him lol. I told him does that really work on other ladies lol
