Aibu to feel the absolute RAGE with this Tinder date?

Pulipatchouli · 16/05/2019 22:50

I met a guy for a date and really liked him.
We fell out. Because I left a card through his letterbox which he said endangered his vulnerable clients. Obviously i found this offensive and utterly ridiculous. I'm sure his postman violates his mailbox often!
He keeps messaging me to say 'thanks for the lovely book you sent me but I don't want to go out with you'
And other patronising shit .
I am full of RAGE.

Because he acts like I am sending him presents to win him back when he is obviously a vain plonker!!
And breathe

I know! Send him a card to tell him you only sent him a card.

Are you drunk OP? Can you explain it more clearly and with a timeline?

tensmum1964 · 16/05/2019 23:15

Following for more info Smile

SleepingStandingUp · 16/05/2019 23:15

Why why why does Aibu do this?!!!
Because you OP wasn't clear

@Pulipatchouli what kind of card? How did you know his address? Did you tell him the book wasn't from you? How does this tie in with his clients?

Reasonstobeearful · 16/05/2019 23:16

I'm intrigued by the vulnerable clients who live with him. Is he a pimp?

I LOVE YOU FOREVER. PS: THE OUTSIDE OF THIS CARD IS COVERED IN MY DNA

BlackcurrantJamontoast · 16/05/2019 23:18

Is he a pimp?

That was my thought. She left her own calling card (aka phone box type) in his mailbox and it upset his current clients.

TheoriginalLEM · 16/05/2019 23:18

Don't give up on him OP.

Obviously he us going to be upset if any of his clients are put in danger by your card. Did it contain semtex? Anthrax? Could've been anything really hiw was he to know otherwise?

Who are his clients? Could you maybe get an appointment?

VeniVidiViciTwice · 16/05/2019 23:18

I have soooo many questions...

TheoriginalLEM · 16/05/2019 23:19

Was there a dead wasp in the card?

C0untDucku1a · 16/05/2019 23:19

Who is sharon?

Also, you fell out after one date. Don't chase him sending him cards. Men dont want them at all. Block his number.

Jemima232 · 16/05/2019 23:19

Great thread, OP. Probably the most confusing I've ever come across on MN.

FWIW he sounds like a self-important twat.

Reasonstobeearful · 16/05/2019 23:20

Did it contain Semtex? Anthrax?

I think the OP has been to Salisbury ...

louderthan · 16/05/2019 23:22

I do not understand.

GruciusMalfoy · 16/05/2019 23:22

Why did you send a card after one date? Is this what happens with dating these days?!

Was it his home address? Maybe he's worried his wife will start asking where all the cards and books are coming from.

justarandomtricycle · 16/05/2019 23:23

Now I'm just imagining what the card says.

JuniperBeer · 16/05/2019 23:23

Why on Earth would you send him a card after one date!?
Surely you write it off and just move on. No wonder he thinks it’s weird

Annonymiss123 · 16/05/2019 23:24

Was it a 'save the date' card?

😂😂👏👏

Catchingbentcoppers · 16/05/2019 23:26

Why did you fall out?

Why did you post him a card?

Why are you so angry?

MarieToulouseBerlioz · 16/05/2019 23:29

Pardon

pinkdelight · 16/05/2019 23:30

In your OP you say you fell out because you sent him the card. Later you say you fell out then sent him the card a week later. It doesn't make sense even disregarding the book. What exactly happened??
