I need honest opinions

IMO you did the right thing, you showed him you are no push-over, good on you and yes you cannot be too careful these days,yes he could be genuine,but honestly i don't think he was.

Actually, maybe this little episode was a good thing as it quickly brought to your attention what kind of person he is. What a jerk for not emailing you immediately (and apologizing) when he got home!

That concerns me that your phone number is on your website. All you have to do nowdays is type in a phone number online and you can get the address. Then you can type in an address and get an aerial map to your home! Also, how do you know for certain that he really drove 45 minutes to meet you? I don't mean to freak you out over this but please be careful ... too many creeps out there!!!

I totally agree with you. Information is very easy to come by online with just a little bit of searching. And yes unfortunately there are too many creeps out there. *shivers*

Hey, give the buy a break. He's crawled back under his rock, and there's no ROOM for a computer in there! Sheesh!

I know, all of the things that you mentioned concerned me, too, but my office is in my home again, so when I meet w/clients, I have to give them directions to my home anyhow. The phone number that he gave me is in an area code that's 40 minutes away. Maybe the phone number is as phony as he is, I don't know. But I haven't heard word one from him since the incident so even if he was legit, his lack of class isn't what I would want in a man.

Have you tried doing a reverse phone search to see if that number is listed under his name? Of course, if it's unlisted the name wouldn't show up.

Don't know if 411.com works the same in Canada.

No, I haven't cuz I honestly do not care. I'm glad to be rid of him. As someone here said: I dodged a bullet.
