It’s official. I do believe I have another clinger on my hands. How do I get myself into these situations? Nine whole days go by and Preacher Man returns. If you aren’t familiar with Preacher Man please refer to Meet Cute Disaster. Let’s not forget that prior to this he sent me seven different text messages and I have yet to respond. I am not trying to be childish or take the easy way out by ignoring him, but I honestly don’t have the time or energy to deal with this psycho.
I tried the whole let him down gently approach by saying that I didn’t think our lives meshed well. After a heated debate over gay marriage, he tells me he is more attracted to me. WTF?! Clearly that tactic did not work. I tried being short with my responses, but he continued to text. I gave him the silent treatment, but that doesn’t work either. This is proof that many men need blunt, straight forward information and do not get hints. I am considering sending him a text saying that he doesn’t have a change in hell, but I doubt it would work either. Suggestions on how to handle this situation would be greatly appreciated. And go!
The return of his texts started yesterday at 9:30 am. The early bird was attempting to go after the worm.
Preacher Man: Hey you. How are you?
Me: No response…literally I haven’t sent him a text back.
Preacher Man: It’s Preacher Man…the guy you met at Starbuck’s.
Well shit! I am glad that you refreshed my fucking memory. It has only been nine days since I last heard from you. With such a long lapse in time, I was sure to forget. Can we say crazy?!
He sent me a Facebook friend request the night we met. I thought it was too soon to add him and I wanted to feel out the situation before accepting his friend request. I never accepted it and chose the Not Now option. Yesterday he sent a second friend request. If I don’t add you the first time it is not likely you will be added if you send another request. Why do people do that?
The next day Preacher Man makes another attempt.
Preacher Man: How are you?
Me: I still have not responded.
I mean he is starting to seem really pathetic. Don’t get me wrong…I think that I am a pretty cool chick and a great catch, but I do not quite understand his obsession with me. Let’s lay out all of the details. We have the meet cute at a coffee shop. We were both physically attracted to one another. We switched phone numbers and began texting that same night. We text for three whole days and then it’s over. He continues to text me for the next five days and I do not respond. Nine days go by and he reappears. We never even had a date.
So here are some questions that come to mind. I do not have answers to these questions. Blog readers…please feel free to comment with your thoughts.
- Why is he still contacting me?
- Did he feel that strong of a connection?
- Is he just really horny and lusting after me?
- Is he really lonely?
- Is he that desperate for a relationship?
- Is it the chase/wanting something that you can’t have?
- Is he bothered by rejection?
- Does he think that I am that awesome?
- Perhaps he wants to chain me up in his basement?
- Is he attempting to have a redo because it was such a disaster?
Feel free to address those questions or add to the list.
* I would like to say that nothing was harmed in creating this blog…except for maybe my pride.
