that's what I consumed to numb myself from the crap I've been dealing with. luckily, it was spread over two days... 16 points... wow. I guess it could be worse... could have been a half gallon (they had those right next to it, and it would have been more economical, lol)

i went out with this guy about a week ago... let's just say it was more like a job interview... however, stupid me decided to give it one more chance, 'just to be fair'. (famous last words, anyone?) he apparently now thinks we're in a relationship, though in two dates (one of which was a movie and then a coffee house...) he never so much as brushed my hand with his! I'm trying to figure a graceful way to get out of it and now he tells me he has a surprise to give me the next time we got out! geez...

he's one of those guys that has to know everything you're doing, eery second of every day, and "oh! can I come too?" my girlfriends are loving it... well, not so much the crap i'm going through as some of the insane things he keeps coming up with... question after question after question...

/vent (i think...)

ugh i had a guy like that once i told him too i was seeing too many ppl and i didnt have enough time for him(he creeped me out too much after 1 date

he believed it so i was lucky and we didnt associate after that and i never saw him on the bus again, cause if i had i wouldnt have met my hubby on the same bus lol(i met him on the bus too lol)

Dancin', the sooner you get out of this the better. It's happened to me, too, once, in particular, when I was in my mid-20s. It was someone who worked for the same company I did, whom I didn't know from Adam, but one day he held the door open for me, I said "thank you" and, apparently, that was all it took for him to fall madly in love with me! Now, I was more naive then than I am now but I did tell him we could be friends, I wasn't interested in him, he claimed that was fine, so we would have lunch together sometimes. While I was keeping him at arm's length, constantly telling him I didn't want a romance with him, just a friendship, he was thinking I was going to eventually change my mind. One time, he even looked up my address and showed up at my house. I did not go out to see him. When I cut the friendship off, he would sit and stare at me from a distance. It all came to a head when I finally lost my temper...he had been watching me and when he saw I was leaving, he jumped up and ran to open the door for me...I lost it and yelled at him to leave me alone...and even then the staring would continue and he would occasionally come over and make remarks to me.

Guys like that tend to take politeness as encouragement and often hear what they want to hear or see what they want to see. She's being nice to me so that means she's interested in me. I'm not a mean person and, like I said, I was more naive then than I am now. I thought this guy would eventually come around to my way of thinking, but he was just waiting for me to change my mind.

Your girlfriends that are loving it have probably never been stalked, right? Because that's what it basically is, even if it doesn't have violent overtones. I've experienced this sort of unwanted, overdone, excessive attention from 3 different people and it doesn't just go away by itself. You have to make it go away.

Do like Barney Fife says and "nip it in the bud!"

Grrr I hate guys like that I had one earlier this year. Everything was fun at first I didn't mind hangout a lot but then the school semester started. I'm a law student and he is part time at community college so a little different in responsibility. He would call and keep me on the phone for hours. Then he would get mad when I didn't have time to hang out every day or all weekend. Plus he would only want to hang out with his friends who were all druggies (not my cup of tea).

I guess he was telling all his friends that we were in a serious relationship when I just thought we were casually dating. Anyways I stopped anwsering his calls and he eventually went away.

yes i've got to agree with the others. you've got to shake that guy. they are very hard to get rid of and can easily border on crazy/creepy. i had one that started like that and i tried to "be nice" and he turned out to be a certified psycho. hopefully you're not dealing with a looper...hopefully you're just dealing with a weirdo. in any case i'd make up some wicked stuff next time he wants to go out or just be really clear about my position. poor dear.
