So I had a brief thing with this dude I met on the internet a few months back (we went on two dates, had sex once) but he was too boring for me, so I told him that I didnât have the time or energy for anything anymore, because of school and work, which was the truth. He said âfine, and if you have more time in the new year, Iâd love to see you againâ. This was in start November, so I just said I had no idea, but have a nice life.Â
Thinking that was it, I went on with my life. Then he texted me in the beginning of december, asking me how life was. I just said good, but busy, merry christmas, and didnât respond to anything since then. He has since texted me on christmas eve, and when I didnât respond he wrote happy new year to me on the site we originally met, on january 1st, which I only saw yesterday, when I went online to the site again after not having been there for 4 months. I then removed him as a friend there, and archived our conversations, including the new message.Â
And today I got a new text. I havenât opened it yet, but it seems to be a âAre you still alive?â text.
And I am so angry?! Like, I let him down really nicely, we didnât know each other for shit, and he even reacted alright to it at the time, but he just canât seem to let me go!? I didnât even indicate that I actually wanted to see him in the new year, I just said âI donât think I will have the time even then, so donât get your hopes up. Have a nice lifeâ.
He knows the building I live in, but he doesnât even actually know my full name. But still, he should be able to find my room if he wanted to. He has been in the military, out 7 tours, twice to Iraq, twice to Afghanistan, once to Sudan, once to Libya, and one I donât remember. So he might have some serious mental damage that I didnât originally see, and I am starting to become a bit worried? Like, I know itâs just texting, but who says he wonât turn to something like stalking when he discovers that I defriended him on the dating site. As I said, I didnât know him that well. I have no idea what he is gonna do.
I just need all men I have ever dated to accept a quiet careful letdown. I have only broken up with one man before, and it turned into begging and crying at my doorstep, and threats of suicide if I didnât go back to him. This is not bad, but me and this new guy was never even together!!!!! arggh... men.
