(quick back ground: started talking to man online, he kept asking for my home address, got stroppy and said he'd waited up all night for me to text, arranged to meet me in a pub and then asked me to meet him around the BACK of the pub in his car!!!)
If anyone is interested! I was too intrigued to just block him like I was advised to but I did cancel the dodgy car date.
However I was chatting to him on msn last night, trying to work out what he was upto. He again asked for my address. I said "no". He asked "why" and said he was a good bloke and wanted to prove it. I said "I can't give my address out to some random over the net, surely you can see that?" and he said "but its silly though ... "
So I said "ok, give me your address and I'll come and visit you" he went VERY quiet and then said he was an ex para and couldn't give out his address incase I wanted to go and blow his house up (I took the opportunity to say "exactly, you never know WHO you're talking to on here".
So he went all quiet and asked when we could meet ... and then said "once you see I'm ok, then you could give me your address x"
So I changed the subject and asked him about sports ... simply to lead him to ask me what I did and I told him I was a karate instructor and trained 4 times a week. Needless to say he went VERY quiet again!! He then said "cool, you'll have to show me some self defense moves". So I'm thinking "gotcha" and I replied "Oh, I would have thought you knew lots already". He said "why?" so I said "well, being an ex para ... I was in the army, you are trained heavily in self defense...right?" so he went quiet again and said "yes, it was a long time ago though, I forgot most of it". So I said "What did you do? Muay Thai or Kung Fu?"
He replied "Kung Fu" PMSL ... I know for a fact they don't teach that in the paras lol
So he's obviously a nut. But what do you reckon, 'innocently' just cheating on a wife somewhere or serial killer?
