    This guy sounds like a stalker. Scary. Also are you sure that everything he told you is the truth? Maybe he hasn't been 100% honest with you.
    I would run from him and yes report his actions to facebook pronto.
    What ever happened to meeting a hot guy in a bar? I miss those days. The music, the dancing, eye contact, that first smile, the way they smelled and the way it felt when they held me close to them while dancing. Can't get that on-line. Ah memories like the corners of my mind, sing it Babs.

    Being the suspicious person I am, I would never, every give anyone my real email addy, full name, phone number or address to anyone I met online and have not talked to for less than one year. After one year if I think they are ok I may give them my real regular email addy instead of the freebie (so far only 4 people have ever gotten that).

    As for meeting people from online, only after talking with them for at least a year with no red flags, and meeting during the daytime in a very public place (I've done that a couple times). Even then they don't get my last name, address or phone number until I've met with them many times in person in public places (so far none have gotten that info).

    I'm probably overly cautious about it, but there are alot of sick people out there and for all I know the story they give about themselves could be made up, and the pix could be of someone else entirely. Granted stuff like that is not overly common, but the fact it, it does happen, and I'd rather miss out on meeting people that I may like, than be stalked by a wakko.

    If this guy is giving you red flags, and reacting that badly over calling off sick, I'd say ditch the guy, change your phone number, change your email/IM addy, and find someone else more cautiously.

    I don't know if your state has open court records, but in wisconsin you can look up a criminal record of anybody in the state. It gives you everything from traffic tickets to felony crimes.

    ACK! ICK! YUK!

    He sounds like a poor lonely soul, who unfortunately velcroed himself to sweet, loveable, funny you. (compliment)

    The scary part is his reaction to your cancellation! My first impression was that he was putting the guilt on you, which is a sign of a great manipulator.

    Let's have a contest how many excuses we can think up. I can send you my leg cast when it comes off. My bad. That's mean.

    If you decide to change your email or IM addresses. let me know.



    I've been Boooo'd!

    Don't ever date anyone you meet on the internet.

    That 'cute' guy that sent you a pic, his 'resume' and all the other good shiat is way too good to be true.

    They are not going to tell you they snore, have a piercing laugh that makes dogs bark in a 30 block radius, they will pick their high school weight, picture and grade school head 'o' hair and mention that in any email.

    They won't tell you about the arrest for public intoxication or the 'help' they gave a kid at the restroom in the park. They all have money, nice cars and houses they own.

    They don't smoke-ciggies, do drink socially-every time they go out in public, love horses (racing) and like to read-Hustler, Juggs and the other periodicals that have scantily clad women on the cover. They love the theater, movies! Callie Does Cah Lee Fuh Nee Ah and burlesque.

    They toss out old 'football' injuries to get a sympathetic massage.

    Men have bankrupted the country, started wars, cheated on SO, killed, stolen and broken pretty much any law you can think of.


    But, hey, they always need a second chance and have changed.

    ------------------------

    I have met tons of wonderful people on the net and on PT. I refuse to date or get involved with any one of them-not becuase they are not interesting-I just don't want anyone to get stuck with the jerk that I am.

    There is the old idea of not wanting to buy a car without driving it first.

    MY last GF I courted for almost 9 months before we became an item. I wanted to make sure she knew that I was interested in her. Before her I met a gal who was rarin' to get things started -before we even went on a real date.
    I made the right choice then.


    Take you time and find out who is really on the other end of the wire.
    If you have top google them or do a background check on them, you are wasting your time.
    The secret of life is nothing at all

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    I agree it can work. I met Moosmom through PT and she is the most beautiful person I've ever met.
