Aibu to feel the absolute RAGE with this Tinder date?

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

Definitely married, unless he works in a bail hostel or something, and brought the OP back there for the world's most romantic ONS.

T-rexes have little short arms, i believe it involves holding your hands at chest height (and not being able to get things off shelves).

I really don't think this is particularly confusing! So I'll be the only person who replies properly . I've been with my partner for many years. However before we were together I felt like men always assumed you wanted to get married and have babies with them. Like you were trying to trap them. It made me really angry to because it's entitled and arrogant. They have such big egos they just assume you want to marry them. So I understand why it is rage inducing. Have you messaged him to tell him you don't know what he is talking about and to get over himself?

Why would a card make his clients feel vulnerable ? Is he a sort of therapist who works from home? You knocked at his door?

I need to know!

Bluntness100 · 17/05/2019 06:57

Aw, this has all the markings of true love. 🥰

Sally2791 · 17/05/2019 07:08

My goodness, a life more bonkers than my own.
PLEASE tell what the card said

Pizzaaddict · 17/05/2019 07:08

Why post something completely nonsensical, then “clarify” by posting exactly the same information then go off in a huff because people are telling you it makes no sense?

WHAT DID THE CARD SAY?
WHO ARE HIS CLIENTS

SillyMoomin · 17/05/2019 07:10

..... da fuck?

Purplecatshopaholic · 17/05/2019 07:22

Why exactly are you full of RAGE?? Hes not that into you, get over it

strawberrisc · 17/05/2019 07:26

Was this the card? Seems perfectly reasonable to me.

Read this back and tell me it you think it makes any sense at all OP. May aswell have written this is hieroglyphics.

I think you had a date, he ditched you and then you went to his house to leave him a card? If so then that's just mental imo.

NameChangeNugget · 17/05/2019 07:34

Come back OP....

jellybean85 · 17/05/2019 07:43

@C0untDucku1a in fairness it's not just men, i don't think many women would appreciate a card after one date either Grin

grupple · 17/05/2019 07:48

I think the OP wrote a long message in the card and that's why he's sarkily referring to it as a book.....maybe.

Turpy · 17/05/2019 07:53

chocolatebuttonsandcheese · 17/05/2019 07:54

@grupple that makes sense!!!

CosmicVagina · 17/05/2019 07:55

Come back OP

Pinkyyy · 17/05/2019 07:56

I wish I hadn't read this.. so many questions and I don't think there are likely to be any answers!

I think they went on one date, after subsequent messages he revealed he wasn’t interested. She the (for some unknown reason) popped a card through his letterbox and he has freaked out and messaged her to stop.

Sort of understandable as this indicates bunny boiler behaviour and I would also be shit scared of someone carrying on in this manner. However I think the logical conclusion is that he is married and crapping himself that OP has visited and his wife could have seen the card or has seen the card and he has had to make something up.

Nothing to be ragey about as it would seem OPs behaviour has brought this on. One date is not a commitment for life and who knows what you are getting on these dating sites, married men, serial killers, deviants etc.

Ooo interesting take @grupple! I like this.

EmmaGrundyForPM · 17/05/2019 08:00

I think the OP needs to update us.

ShatnersWig · 17/05/2019 08:00

Was someone on the wine last night?

ooooohbetty · 17/05/2019 08:02

@Pulipatchouli please come back and explain.

Catchingbentcoppers · 17/05/2019 08:03

I think the OP needs to update us.

I don't think that's going to happen ... 😂
