Take A Hint

So last Wednesday I started talking to this guy on Plenty of Fish…for the sake of the story I will refer to him as “Jim”. So I’m talking to Jim and he seems fine…nothing to write home about but he asks me out for a drink. When it gets to this point I always exchange numbers first so I can have the guy text me a picture of themselves that way I can make sure they actually look like their pictures…and get a better idea of if they are actually attractive or not. 75% of the time they are NOT and have just chosen really good pictures for their profile. So the next day he sent me a picture and I was like Nope! You ugly! Obviously I didn’t say that to him but I didn’t respond to his text at all and usually guys get the hint if you don’t respond after a certain amount of time and you all move on. Not this guy! No in six days Jim has called me eight times from his phone number, texted me seven times, called me three times from different numbers that aren’t his, left me four messages on POF, and left me two voice mails. I feel like I should finish that off with a “and a partridge in a pair tree”!
And yes you read that right he has called me from three different phone numbers! The first time he called from his phone number and I figured out it was him after I answered it so I just said hello three times and hung up…like I couldn’t hear him.  The next time he called from a different number so I didn’t know it was him and actually started to talk…oops. He was like hey this is Jim have you gotten any of my calls or texts? At this point I should say yes but i’m sorry I am not interested…but I didn’t. Why? Because 1. that is super awkward to do over the phone and 2. this guy is obviously crazy and I don’t want to piss him off. So instead I played dumb. “No I haven’t been getting your texts…that is so weird! Well I’m meeting some friends and just pulled in the parking lot so I gotta go.”  Yeah I know, I’m a bitch, but what else are you going to do when a crazy person calls you?
So you would think by now Jim would get the hint that I am not interested right? Wrong! He texted me later that day and then called me today from his number and then from a different number and left me a message saying how he checked with the phone company and they are not sure why I am not getting any of his calls or texts either! He talked to the freaking phone company!! I am sure they got a good kick out of that conversation! And he also asked me to put his number in my phone because that might help but he will try to call me when he can somehow. Are you freaking kidding me guy?!? I mean even if I was interested we only talked sporadically for maybe an hour on POF… not worth all the work he is putting in to get a hold of me. You’re probably thinking I should be flattered huh? Honestly at this point I’m not sure to whether to be creeped out or feel sorry for the guy. There is no reason you should put this much energy into some one who you don’t even know their last name…or in this case any about them period.
So needless to say this post is to be continued…
