About a month ago, I started chatting to a guy online. He seemed really sweet, attentive, we spoke on the phone a few times etc.

About 3 weeks ago he was in a car crash and suffered concussion.

Since then, he messages every day (I've tried telling him to bugger off, ignoring him for days etc. yet still he messages every fucking morning. I've tried ringing, nope, won't answer the phone).

The messages are like Memes with 'Thinking of you always', 'Missing you', 'A good morning is saying that I think about you first thing', that sort of shit.
Whenever I ask him a question he responds with this same shit! He doesn't converse at all.
Now I know he had a knock on the head, but in one response very early on after the crash, he said that I got 'weird' because he wouldn't answer the phone. We had been on the phone and he said he'd call me back in 5, then I didn't hear from him for 2 days apart from a voice message saying he had been in a crash.
I don't want to block him, I probably should, but I'm more curious! What the fuck is his game?
Every fucking day I get these teddy bear, love heart, rainbow pictures with lovey dovey messages, then nada!

I know you're going to say block him lol, but I'm sort of curious!

I know I know I know, block, block, block. Short of blocking him (I've told him to F off), there's nothing I can do.

But what the hell is he playing at? It makes no sense whatsoever!

I don't understand why you're entertaining this. He sounds extremely odd.

He sounds weird, and I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole, but you are sending mixed messages - you say you've told him to bugger off and you don't like the memes, but then you answer him when he messages and you are making excuses for not blocking him. So on some level you are enjoying this attention.
If you don't like him and don't want to continue the relationship, block him. Why do you need to play silly games ?

Sorry but he sounds bonkers, block him.

I met a guy via OLD, he turned out to be a massive attention seeker. He even made up some bullshit story about being suspect in a murder! I think he thought it made him feel like a 'big I am'

The guy was just mad
