To think my boyfriend might be a bit stalkerish?

Only been together 3 months but his behavior is becoming quite strange. At first it just used to seem like everytime I went shopping, he ended up in the same shop and I put it down to coincidence but a few weeks ago I was out feeding the birds in my garden and noticed boyfriend crouched down beside the pond with a gnomes hat on and a fishing rod. I asked what he was doing and he said he was just playing around but I'm suspicious for obvious reasons. And then, yesterday I was in primark and noticed him stood among the manikins modelling clothing watching me. Again I asked what he was doing and he said his mate is the manager of the shop and they were short on manikins so he was helping out???

For my birthday last week he bought me one of those photo cakes from asda which I thought was quite sweet - but in hindsight, the photo was of me getting in my car at 6.30am for work - where was he to have taken that photo??

Am I being paranoid?

Has he got a big rod?

If not, leave the bastard.

Did he look like this Xmas Hmm

What kind of cake? Just as flowers had a language, now cake does:

Red velvet: "I'm going to hack you to death"
Chocolate fudge: "I want you to get fat, so nobody but me will ever want you again"
Victoria sponge: "I live with my mother, and You Will Too"
Anything alcohol-based: "Let's party like it's 1979"

So, which was it? Wine

I have actual tears rolling down my face after reading that OP

Pied · 14/12/2012 14:31

Has he ever followed you to work?

SPsFanjoIsSantasLittleHoHoHo · 14/12/2012 14:31

Nothing stalkerish at all. If anything I'd say he just isn't that into you if that's all he's doing.

If he was he would be laying on the back seat of your car dressed as the seat.

Or even knelt on all fours pretending he's your desk at work.

PhallicGiraffe · 14/12/2012 14:34

Leave the bastard!

OwlLady · 14/12/2012 14:34

it all sounds really normal

SantasBitch · 14/12/2012 14:38

Are you sure he was pretending to be a gnome? Did he have his head in his lap? If so, maybe he was a goblin?

ZebraInHiding · 14/12/2012 14:42

Brilliant thread!

HazeltheMcWitch · 14/12/2012 14:45

'dressed as the seat' Arf!!

EveryYuleKnows · 14/12/2012 14:46

Was Amelie taking a picture of him when he was a gnome ?

WandaDoff · 14/12/2012 14:56

8/10, because I was still chuckling to myself about this in the wind & rain at the nursery pickup.

2muchxmaspud · 14/12/2012 15:01

Great one SP Xmas Grin

PessaryPam · 14/12/2012 15:02

LOL! Xmas Grin

WeAreSix · 14/12/2012 15:09

My dad had a garden gnome go missing a couple of months ago. Maybe there was some misplaced elf magic going on? I think your boyfriend may need help to get back to another realm.

Are you sure he was a gnome and not one of the Smurfs?

BattlingFanjos · 14/12/2012 15:45

You wanna dump him for Papa Smurf OP, don't stand for his mischief!

I read the post and imagined a strange man ducking behind mannequins muttering the catch me if you can theme! Looked a bit like tim nice but dim MIB style!
You've been a right laugh OP, thanks for coming!
