To wonder if he’s doing it on purpose

[No9]

Recently had a man ask me out who lives near by and I turned him down nicely, just don’t want to date at the moment, he parked in front of me earlier and starting revving his car really loud for ages and then got out and locked the door and turned and smirked at me. Then when I went to the supermarket the other evening it was really quiet and there was loads of spaces available but he parked next to mine (he knows my car.) Am I overthinking

Most definitely not overthinking. He sounds like a weirdo and that you had a lucky escape. If he's like that now and you have not even dated, imagine what he would be like as an ex!!! Definitely steer clear.

They can get nasty if turned down, I’ve seen it happen a lot. Take care

Weirdo & bully.

You're not overthinking.
Tell your neighbours about him, & that you are concerned he may start to harass you.

Wow I bet you've changed your mind and are wishing you'd dated him! It sounds as though you have had a really narrow, escape.

Please keep a record of what he is doing, if he escalates you will want to report him.

It would also be a good idea to tell some people about your concerns.

Hi @No9 hopefully it's just his ego that is hurt and he's trying to make out he's ok. Just in case keep a note of anything he does x

I would go talk to the police and ask their advice. He sounds volatile.

Getting knocked back is a part of life, it happens you move on. You definitely don't intimidate the person that turned you down. He's not right in the head.

Take photos

oh yay, toxic masculine bullshit. No, you're not overthinking. He's being a prick by trying to intimidate you. If he doesn't stop, tell the police.

I'd report this sooner rather than later to 101. The police take intimidation/stalking much more seriously now and they'll be able to advise you what to do if it happens again. I had a woman follow me home recently after a disagreement about parking and the police told me to call 999 if I saw her in my cul-de-sac again (because she had no other reason to be there). As you're already on your second incident with this weirdo I'd say you need to call sharpish.

Do you have any cctv/ a 'Ring' doorbell?

What an awful man. Clearly felt entitled to you saying yes. Disgraceful. Be careful and take photos.

What is wrong with this person, of course you aren't over thinking. I would take photos and note down anything else. He sounds disturbing and I would call 101 if anything else happens. This sounds horrible and unsettling .
