For context I have been messaging this person and sometimes I don’t reply quickly due to working or other things and this is what he says. Top message supposed to say ‘at messaging’ I’m guessing..I’m mid twenties and he is mid thirties.

I'd think it was an illiterate troll/scammer/sexual harasser and block it immediately.

Why would you assume he's a scammer?!

I would wonder why a five year old was texting me.

😂😂

Can’t spell, chases women 10 years younger than himself. Such a catch.

Yep, exactly!

He’s trying to go younger because he thinks you’ll have lower expectations than women his own age. Prove him wrong by putting him in the bin where he belongs.

AgentProvocateur · 08/09/2023 02:40

I’d wonder if a five year old had got hold of his phone.

Newnamehiwhodis · 08/09/2023 02:44

EW. he’s gross. Not just the smacked bum part, but “lol” after every sentence. He’s insecure and showing signs of trying to hide that he’s a disgusting bully.

I would be done and out

JANEY205 · 08/09/2023 02:57

Yikes!!

GarlicGrace · 08/09/2023 03:07

Can't spell
Can't punctuate
Ends messages with 'lol xx'
Puts you down
Threatens punishment for non-compliance
Is too old for you

What 25-year-old wouldn't be swept off her feet by this bossy thicko? 🤣

GarlicGrace · 08/09/2023 03:14

chuk him back luv not worth it lol xx

OrderOfTheKookaburra · 08/09/2023 03:28

Stop messaging them! This one isn't a keeper.

The opposite of “What a silver tongued charmer”

😂😂😂😂😂

RosesAndHellebores · 08/09/2023 03:54

He's a semi-literate frog and he will not turn into a Prince so there's no point kissing him.

SusanSHelit · 08/09/2023 03:54

Ugh how vile. If you could see the look of disgust on my face after reading that text op.

Bin him off op you can do far far better

Thoughtful2355 · 08/09/2023 04:08

Ick at anyone being illiterate for me im afraid

EmpressaurusOfCats · 08/09/2023 04:19

To be fair he might be dyslexic or something. But even if the texts were spelled perfectly he’d still come across as a total pillock. Ditch the wanker.

Lwrenagain · 08/09/2023 04:35

I'm dyslexic ffs, do we have to have this dreamboat lumped in with us @EmpressaurusOfCats 😂

The fact he doesn't seem to be able to construct a proper message bugs me less than his "banter" which gives me red flags and the ick.

StellaLaBella · 08/09/2023 04:41

NoSaladThanks · 08/09/2023 05:05

Ugh, get rid.
He might think he's being silver tongued, but as far as I can see, it's so rusty that even a silversmith would bin it.

Anni1234 · 08/09/2023 05:11

Needy

HectorSalamanca · 08/09/2023 05:18

I would think 'eewwww', then block him.

fairyfluf · 08/09/2023 05:19

I would think ewww no in the bin
