Many times some ladies - and men too have had to change their phone numbers.

I dated a man, who told others what a great person he is. Howard told a woman I know that we were getting married soon. I was shocked and told Loretta, we aren't getting married soon, or at any time! He got upset and said, 'Beggars can't be choosers!' My response, 'So who told you I'm a beggar?' He kept calling my house trying to date me, pestered every day! What a jerk:(

A very rude jerk too. Some men actually convince themselves that they're irresistible.

@Kandae11 He acted like I was being spared, from my awful life. I was considered a loney divorcee, that nobody would ever want to marry!

So far, so good! I have always managed to deal with anyone that wanted more than I wanted to give by being straight with them and avoided them after that if it was necessary and did not answer their calls after the conversation.Thanks to God for identi-call.

It's a difficult thing indeed to refuse a man who wants you. Good thing, my father is an attorney, so somehow they are afraid of him.

Sadly, that's what we 5 sisters don't have - brothers or even one brother.

I had been reading the posts and it seems that it happens more to women. It never happened to me and I never do or did it to anyone lol. In my opinion it happens when a person listens only to himself and his own perception rather than being open to the real situation.

@Kandae11 I understand, I had been stalked before but I just don't have the time to write about it or my mind just simply wants to forget, for one it's harder for men to say no plus the social pressure in our own society where you are considered whatever if you refuse a woman that is going after you.

Some years ago I answered a call on my cellphone. The person had the wrong number which I told him, but he didn't seem to want to hang up. I hung up on him and he called again and asked me why I did that

I immediately blocked the number.

It can be very troublesome when it becomes really serious. One may be forced to take drastic measures like changing an address or informing the police.

Does this person know where you live or know your phone number? If he does I would definitely change my number. If he knows where u live..I know you wouldn't want someone making you leave your home but it would be for your own safety. This person seems to be very persistent. So you definitely should get and stay far away from them as possible. Get a restraining order if it comes to that.

Now that you mentioned it, I remember the last two from a same workplace where I worked decades ago! A horrible time! Problem was, I didn't want to embarrassed them too publicly. They got the message when I got married.

Met people like this on Facebook when it comes to the MLM etc that they are doing. It makes me want to go and strangle them while Screaming Go Bug Someone else. Also been there done that with people I know in person. Many may have come from abusive lifestyle themselves and know nothing more than this even though it should never be tolerated

It has been years since I had that problem. My brother just said I look friendly. With one, I went on one date. Another, I ignored. Another young man got to be introduced to my fiance who was home on leave from the Navy. Now adays I would just play dumb.
