Red flag or overreaction

3 years ago I arranged a date with someone and they stood me up. They called 6 months later to rearrange and I told them to go away (was in a relationship).

5am this morning they ring twice!!!!! Had no idea who it was. They call again at 11am. They want a date with me today. I say no. Tomorrow then? I say still not.

Now, I am terrible at weeding out nutcases, but this is red flags everywhere, right?

Don't block. This is a fun bingo game. Get your friends together and make bets on how long it takes for him to pop up again. £5 a prediction. 😀

Oops not bingo. Just bets. No more wine for me!

Can still play that 😁 - my 1571 service tells me when a blocked person has called. It's hourly.

And to all those who expressed disbelief that I had to ask, this is a very positive step forward from previous abuse - notice how I question that I'm overreacting? That's a common self perception in people who've experienced that I have.

6 months ago and I would have gone on a date with this one and then wondered what I did so wrong to create such a toxic relationship.
