Got a message yesterday from a guy i used to go to school with. Not seen since but we send the occasional message/ comment on facebook. Nothing flirty, just boring stuff. Well out the blue he sent me a message saying, 'hi babe, I know you are married and i am too but is it wrong of me to dream about you or wrong of me to tell you?' .... Er both I guess... Not interested & dont want to give wrong impression but also don't want to be rude/ embarrass him. What would you do? Ignore? Or reply? Tell husband? I know I'm probably overeacting but i sometimes overthink things.

Just delete and ignore. Inappropriate message for him to send that does not warrant a response.

I'd show my dh, then reply to him saying both are wrong. Then I'd block him as he is clearly looking for an affair of some description. He wasn't worried about embarrassing you, why are you so concerned about his feelings?

Delete it and block him.

I'd ignore.
Chances are that he sends those randomly.
And replying would initiate a conversation about it.
If he insists then block him.

Block him too. Then there's nothing to think about Smile

ShoutyHead · 23/02/2013 14:51

Tell your DH then block him. Or if you were feeling evil you could reply to him and his wife saying both so that she sees what an idiot he is.

I had a similar message recently, instead this person asked me out for coffee. Hmm I didn't even respond, just deleted him from my friends list. It's disrespectful.

MillyMollyMandy78 · 23/02/2013 14:56

Thanks for all your replies. I was worried that I was reading too much into it. Will delete & show my husband. Then if i get anything else in the same style, i will block him.

Would ignore - guys tend to do ths for an ego boost when they're at a loose end!

Lucyellensmum95 · 23/02/2013 18:07

delete and block He is married, you are married. End of

Flojobunny · 23/02/2013 18:12

Tell DH then delete and block.

MillyMollyMandy78 · 23/02/2013 20:32
