Got a mail asking for phone number........

Hmm. I think he has realized what he has done and wants to come clean with you. Dear Subha, I personally feel that you must not continue to hate anybody. You can hate somebody for a while, until the wound is still sore, but with time, one should forgive and forget. If you dont want to be friends anymore, fine, but dont waste energy hating people, its not good for you. You should give a person a chance to express himself. If you dont like the explanation, you can keep quiet. If the explanation is valid, you can think about it. Hope what I say is in good shape. Wish you all the best.

Hi Subha!
Please do not get so angry on the poor soul, he is asking about your well beings, he would have spare some time to write the mail. He might have something important to tell you. If you still feel that he does not deserve your attention or your reply, you can simply tell him 'not to send such mails' in future and he should not ask for your personal telephone number. But how did he get your mail ID, was it you who shared it with him?

I think you should not give your number, come what may .

I believe in this: "Once bitten, twice shy " .

Now, there might be something else for which he is calling you .
Still, why trust such a person .

I have also realized the hard way that in this modern world, being too simple and
forgiving hurts oneself and one should be at least a bit clever .

Somehow your life situations seem similar to some of mine .
That is why I would recommend you never to trust others without thinking .
Also be watchful of what others are upto and always keep your own interests on the top .

Well it is all up to you.You said he is a good friend before and cheated?So I assume that was the reason why you hated him so much now.It is much better if we do not keep anger in our hearts.You can forgive the person and forget about him.And stop talking to him.
Maybe he got something important to tell you.Why not give it a try first, just ask him what important thing is that.But if you are uncomfortable doing it, then you can ignore him at all or block him in your list.

something like this happen to me a year ago. An old high school friend, i gave her my number, added her in my facebook. BIG MISTAKE. turns out she was just bored and wanted to do something new. she started asking almost everything about me, what i do? where i study? started to annoy me slightly. after find out stuff about me she started teasing, and joking. pissed me off. firstly we were already walking a thin line, then she starts acting like some... well i deleted her from my facebook before things got any worst. i don't need people like her in my life.

So whatever you do, prepare for worst.

you know you should never i mean never cause maybe he will be asking you your adress.He i dont know hes kind of carrying you away from your mind man.Next time be careful about him

oh so sorry 2 hear this,i ve a similiar problem,i always get unkown mails in my inbox.i donno how they get my mail address,i just worry about my security,i think it's not good 2 do this.hope u solve the problem soon.

Well, you would keep on guessing and confused why if you won't talk to him.. Maybe he really has something important to tell you. Set aside your grudge on the person for a while and talk to him.

Hope tha helps. Ciao!

How can others know if you are also confused . Well if he is a cheater you are doing right not to answer his mail . If he does have sth extremely important i think he might send you emails again and again . Yeah don't give a number to him because it's dangerous .

maybe a scam/hoax, only one suggestion, flag the mail as spam, or delete it immediately.
