Leave me alone, you creeper!

Is what I should have said...

As we left things, I flaked on date #2, under the pretext of "having a headache." Now, if you were a normal guy, you'd probably at least be suspicious my headache was a ruse, and that I wasn't interested. However, as I've never been known to date normal guys, this was not the case.

I was treated to, in my opinion, a completely inappropriate text message* the following morning. To which I did not reply. It was followed up, a few hours later, with a bordering on angry text message.** I sent a terse reply to that, and ignored dude's follow up reply.

I didn't hear back from him for 2 whole days! I was getting optimistic. Maybe, I could just wipe my hands of the entire situation! Yeah, not so much.

Friday afternoon...more text messages. Dude is now angling to come over my apartment this weekend. He wants to "bring me nice wine" so I can relax. Didn't reply to first text, and of course he just kept texting. I'm at work, and now getting stressed. Instead of saying "Leave me alone, you creeper!" I sent a short reply, indicating I would get back at him later in the weekend.

At least that got him off my ass, and not blowing up my phone while I was at work. I knew it wasn't the long term fix. I had to tell him it wasn't going to happen, in a direct manner. There is history here, this guy has been chasing me down for a while, and doesn't take hints. I sent him a FB message, stating he had come on way too strong and made me very uncomfortable. Then I blocked him from everything. Blocked his number from my phone, deleted/blocked him from my FB, email, etc.

Now I have to get rid of OKC guy. Had some very nice emails/IMs with this fellow. Gave him my phone number a little sooner than usual, and had a nice chat with him. To which he:

a. texted me immediately after I hung up the phone

b. then, after texting me immediately, sent me a message on OKC

c. called me the next night, because I hadn't replied to his text(?!?)

d. immediately sent me a message on OKC after that phone call.

Seriously, are the planets out of whack? What is going on with these boys? Is dating even worth it?

In case you wonder what constitutes a completely inappropriate text message, or an angry text message:

*U owe me big time for last night mrs...Oh yes!! I expect u...scantily clad attire in-tow when i see u next!! jk i hope u r feeling ok...

** Did you end up going to work today or whatever?
