This Guy Needs a Hobby… or Meds

I know I’ve told you about some over zealous dudes like “I think I love you” Cupid and “can’t wait for you to meet my family after one date” guy in Flowers, but this next gem takes the figurative cake on the creepy clinger scale.

He and I met on Match and soon decided to meet for a coffee date. I need to emphasize here that we had just one 45-min coffee date. So, remember that as you continue reading.

The date was pleasant, but I just wasn’t feeling chemistry. At the end of the date, pulls out two flowers –  one was my sorority’s flower and the other was his fraternity’s flower. How he figured out my sorority without knowing my name still bothers me.

He hinted at a second date and I waffled. Yes, I should have just said no right there, but I was standing on the sidewalk holding flowers from a guy that I deemed a potential stalker, so I went with the vague “Yeah, let me see what my schedule looks like.”

A couple days later he texted me about dinner plans and I responded with a clear, but polite ‘no’ that basically said “Thank you for the date. I’m not interested, but good luck.” His initial text back was “Fine. Delete this number.” Ok, a little rude, but I get it. Rejection sucks.  About an hour later I get this:

A little  dramatic, whatever.

I thought this was the end of it. I was wrong. About a week later, the following message pops up on Match:

“I truly miss you and care about you.” What?!? Again, one date.

I obviously didn’t  respond. Another several days go by.

No amount of planetary alignment is going to make this happen.

Another week.  (Yes, it was too long for one screen shot)

Bottom line, this guy is the Mayor of Crazytown and I have no other snarky words or lessons on the subject other than just don’t be this guy.

  1. WOW! No words except he clearly has zero experience dating and clearly had built you way – WAY up in his head. In reality the person he’s sending all those notes too isn’t even you, its the person he made you into – in his mind.

  2. Does he know where you live? Pls god tell me you didn’t mention where you live…. Or where I live… We share the same last name. He sounds so desperate he might just settle for your sister in law!
