I don't know what to do.

I have been on four dates with a guy.

On valentines day he bought me £600 worth of jewrelley and theatre tickets.

Now this may sound lovely but.

A few days before Valentines day I was buying my son a necklace for his girlfriend and this guy happened to be with me. I saw a beautiful locket in the window and said oh thats lovely, id wear that if i had a picture of my boys in it. We then walked past Pandora and I said oh its all a bit expensive tat in there, anything I have bought before.

Fast forward to Valentines day. He presents me with the locket, im like oh wow, bloody hell. Opened it and hes put pictures of himself in there 😐. Then he said don't shout at me, and presented me with a Pandora bracelet and 7 charms....one of which was his own star sign.....and then a card that he had written his own poem saying i liked you, I loved you, I'm keeping you.

I was so massively freaked out by this. We went out that night and I felt so uncomfortable, got back to mine and I pretended to fall asleep. I could hear him huffing behind me and then he started trying to pull on my jogging bottoms to get them down, then sent me probably the most sexually vile message i have ever recieved on his way home.

I havent replied to him since. Im taking the jewrelley back and having it refunded to him.

Am i being over the top or is this a red flag. My nervous system is telling me I've made the correct decison to cut this off.

Four dates? Block him. He sounds vile.

You are right. Red flags.

Run like the wind. Totally not normal behaviour. As for trying to pull your joggers down. Big red flags.

Massive red love bombing flags imo, plus putting his photo in the locket and writing that stuff sounds like there was some competition with your son which doesn't bode well.
Run for the hills. Fast, block and don't think twice. Listen to your intuition
