Just been reading Ever dated a Psycho?. Very funny and rather terrifying.
Got me thinking about "C", who I met in a bar in Nottingham many years ago. I was with my sister and he sent a bottle of champagne over to our table. So far so good, we asked him and his mate to join us. As we drank the champagne he asked me out for the following weekend, I agreed. During the evening my sister happened to mention that she worked in bank. The night ended without further event.
Next morning around 09.45 am, I got a call from my sister "guess who I have had a phone call from this morning" she said. It turns out that "C" had rung every high street bank's HQ to find my sister, she didn't even work in the town where we met them had come over on the train that night. He pretended to be a business customer and they gave him her branch and telephone ext. He rang her to find out if I really liked him and to tell her that he had booked a limosine to pick me up for our date and that she should let me know to pack a weekend bag .
He called that night to confirm our "date" I declined politely telling him I was busy that weekend, under the circumstances I don't think I was being unreasonable to fib. Phone call ended well. He then phoned me back 5 minutes later and continued to do so every 2-3 minutes for the rest of the evening leaving more and more abusive messages on my voice mail culminating in a screaming message telling me what a "using bitch" I was. Needless to say I returned no further calls and changed my number promptly.
Lucky escape there I think.
Anyone else escaped a psycho or currently in the process .
