Nice guy in hospital turned weird

[TheOpalFox]

When my dad was in hospital really poorly a guy next to my dad was really kind and friendly with my dad, my dad got discharged and swapped numbers with this gentleman. He’s in his 60s
Well he’s texting my dad saying he fancies me
And can he take me out and he’s literally acting obsessed with me.
Sounds awful but would you block him? Or is that mean? Thanks

Block him.

Block him without a second thought

Block

Just block. It’s not awful or mean, at all. It’s a very reasonable response to inappropriate behaviour.

Block! Sounds like he tricked your dad to get your details 😬

How creepy! Absolutely block

I’m surprised you even have to ask us.
He’s some random creepy bloke!

Just block him or make sure your dad blocks him before it begins to encroach on other areas of your life.

Wearing my cautious hat …
Stalking potential? Be careful .

Seriously why do you even have to ask? It’s surely blindingly obvious you block him.

He made out he had no kids and was really poorly and he admired me for going to see my dad all day everyday. Now he’s just bloody creepy :(

He probably thinks he has found his retirement plan YOU / Nurse with a purse.

Men are disgusting, self centered creatures.

Ugh, block him without a second thought.

You made a mistake in your title because you wrote he is nice, don’t think this for a second. Of course it is fine to block him.

Block the cheeky fecker. Stay safe OP

Sounds awful but would you block him? Or is that mean? Thanks.

Why do women do this to ourselves? feel the need to placate horrible men to the detriment of our own boundaries and feelings.

You owe this guy absolutely nothing - instead of feeling guilty, get angry at the fact that he took advantage of your kind nature during a stressful time, when you were visiting your father in hospital.

It's a shame you think like that. Not all men are, far from it

OP, how do you now know he wasn't that ill & he doesn't have kids?

OP, why would you think that you shouldn't block him? I mean, what on earth would keeping his number add to your life?

The fact that you are asking if it’s mean, you are exactly the type of woman these creeps target. Why on earth are you even questioning it? Do you really need someone to give you permission to block him?

Of course it's not unkind - it's rational and self protecting.
Don't just block him if he's somehow got your number but ensure that your Dad doesn't unwittingly collude with him. Make sure he knows that the only answer to the creep is NO and that he mustn't have any conversations with this guy about you.
Your Dad will be the weak link.

Block him immediately, I've heard of men doing stuff like this and turning in to full blown stalkers. Don't take the risk.

So he's texting your dad? Then your dad needs to block him immediately. I strongly doubt your dad really enjoys getting messages from someone who's desperate to fuck his daughter, frankly.

If your dad was stupid enough to give him your number, then obviously you need to block him as well.

I can't believe you need to ask about this. Why would anyone even entertain the idea of letting this weirdo carry on messaging?

Do you often put the feelings of strangers over your own?

You owe this man nothing. Block him

How is this even a question?

What’s the alternative - and why would that be your choice? What’s the benefit to you if being perved over by a worryingly persistent manipulative creep?

do you like him?
do you want to go out with him?

Exactly this.

I’m surprised your dad told you about this. That seems a bit silly on his part. This man is not in contact with you I assume so there’s nothing to do. But I don’t think being nice and finding women attractive are mutually exclusive. He can be nice and still stupid.
