Friend'' has annoyed me

42 replies

My "friend" of a few years started to visit me and my son as his son is around the same age so they could play and we could chat.
He was only round twice but he was a bit creepy. He kept getting near my face, touching me, laying his head on my knee and wanting to look up my exs. Also, saying things like oh look i saw you staring at me. I trusted him and I wasn't bothered as I felt he is just a friend nothing more. He also has a gf who doesn't care about him. So I just felt sorry for him. But then I noticed he kept posting things about loving 2 people at once and not letting anything get in the way of it.
Then one day I was out with family and he kept messaging me. I ignored him. Then on the night he messaged me again saying we need to talk. I asked is it about me not messaging you cause I was with family. And he no how we feel about each other. With a laughing face.
Then put that hes messing.
I said i hope your messing 😐
Then he replied talk later hun.
Since then I had ignored him didn't open his messages cause I'm creeped out that he'd even think i fall for that or that i even like him like that. Now he keeps putting things on his profile like : If you are reading this then you should message me.
I just can't talk him anymore i am so creeped out 😕

She sounds as weird as him Confused

Bennyandthejetsssss · 15/10/2018 21:27

Oof, shudder!

I wonder what his girlfriend would say if she knew?

What a weirdo. Imagine why he thinks he’s such a catch posting about loving two people. Does his partner not see that? Does he think you’re thinking he’s great as a result?

Aside from the fact you clearly don’t fancy him - just block and delete!

Block all contact and keep him well away. That would creep me out too.

I don’t think ghosting is admirable but I’d say it’s essential here.

Good luck op. Hope as he’s removed from your world you relax and feel better. Nothing worse than a friend of the opposite sex getting the wrong idea.

Bennyandthejetsssss · 15/10/2018 21:29

Just saw the gf post.

Block/delete! Weirdo’s

Avalaura · 15/10/2018 23:47

I ended up having to delete my profile. I was being bombarded with messages saying he his family were going to come after me. And that I am a bored lonely boring person. He told them that I needed his help with money when I never asked or took a penny off him. And then they started commenting on my face and the way I do my make up.
It's just gone too far 😢😢
I've had enough. I am deactivated

You shouldn't have to do that, frankly at this point I'd be getting police involved!

HelloSnow · 16/10/2018 00:33

Blimey that's escalated. You say he was a friend of a few years, how did you meet him? Has he always been flirty?

ciderhouserules · 16/10/2018 08:19

Police. This is harassment.

And don't believe the message came from his gf. It came from him, sure.

EBearhug · 16/10/2018 08:33

It doesn't matter if he's "just a bit flirty" (though he sounds way more obsessed and dodgy than that.) He's crossed your boundaries, and that's what counts. You aren't comfortable with it.

I would echo what others say about going to the police if this isn't the end of it.

Avalaura · 16/10/2018 10:02

He's defo taking things way too far. I'm keeping copies of everything he puts. There's a new status calling me a bitch and saying I'm not going to win this.
All I wanted was to get on with my life after blocking him and he decides to take it way too far. He's telling people lies about me which is making me annoyed but I'll just keep screenshotting everything to keep as evidence.

I have put that I have kept it all as evidence and police will be notified. Now he's deleted everything. Ha.

I have just had an apology direct from him! Finally. Get on with my life 😊

All a bit ott and you need to deal with it head on. Tell him point blank that you don't want to pursue a friendship or otherwise as he crossed a line and that's a personal boundary you have and you are too uncomfortable now.
Also, if you have blocked him on everything and deactivated your account then how is he contacting you?
This is all very weird

Avalaura · 16/10/2018 13:11

He made up a fake profile

Don't delete any of it. No reason why you can't talk to police about this.

glitterystuff · 16/10/2018 23:22

Ewww what a creep! Getting his girlfriend to defend him? Trying to slur your name in public? Sounds obsessive af!

You've done very well being dignified and just keeping evidence of his behaviour.

I'm sorry this has happened to you.

Depending on the social media network, you can up the security settings so people who aren't contacts can't contact you or even request to follow or friend you.
