ElizabethAnn Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Hi! Okay. I'm just wondering if I handled this the right or wrong way. Please tell me what you think. I started corresponding to a guy through emails on an online date site. We did talk on the phone a few times and I just didn't feel any kind of a connection with him. And also, when he called and I was unable to take his call at that moment..he would text me repeatedly within minutes asking what I was doing....who are you talking to?...did you make a new friend?..etc. It pretty much creeped me out. I was getting the feeling he was clingy and desperate. and he's telling me he feels he has known me forever and so on. I just felt it was way too much! Long story short....since we only talked on the phone about 3 times and never met in person. I went ahead and emailed him letting him know I'm glad we talked a few times and wished him luck in his search. He then started texting me back over and over again begging me to give him a chance. Again...I just felt creeped out! So I didn't make contact again. That was a couple of days ago. Tonight, I get home from work and he emailed me two times on the date site calling me every name in the book...so I blocked him from the site and my phone. Was I wrong to let him I'm not interested or should I have just ignored him entirely? I've never had a man on date site act this way before. Opinions please?? Link to comment
Capricorn3 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 He certainly did seem to be rather overwhelming, pushy and smothering, so yes, I think you did the right thing in blocking him. You did nothing wrong (imo). Link to comment
TwelveThirty Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Well, I'm going to ask you the question that you might least expect me to ask you, but can you tell me what kind of names did he call you? Link to comment
Unwanted Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 He sounds like a psycho tbh. It was a good move to let him know you weren't interested, at least you didn't leave him hanging and wondering what went wrong. But a total psycho definitely. Link to comment
Rosee Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 It was polite of you to let him know. Wouldn't have made any difference if you'd ignored him, I imagine he would have behaved the same. Sorry you're having to deal with his issues, you did nothing wrong. Link to comment

browneyedgirl36 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 I think you handled this really well. You didn't just fade out on him -- you explicitly told him you weren't interested, and he should have let it go at that. Your instincts were telling you something about this guy from the minute you started talking to him on the phone. The needy texting when he couldn't get you on the phone was a dead giveaway that this guy has issues. You're a smart woman, and you made the right choice. You did nothing wrong at all.

ElizabethAnn Posted July 10, 2011 Author Share Posted July 10, 2011 Thank you everyone for replying to my post. I think I did the right thing too. Felt I was being nice and not letting him wonder. Didn't think he would be so darn rude about it!. I just needed to hear what other's thought about it. I'll just be patient. They say there is someone for everyone! Link to comment
