I recently met someone who I was attracted to and the universe even arranged for us to meet up one day - I just happened to bump into him while shopping so we ended up spending a lot of the day together.
He said some things that got a few alarm bells ringing but I told myself to try and be open minded and not judge.
When we went our respective ways, we'd a loose agreement to meet up again and doing something however before the week was out I had been bombared with text mesages and emails from this person, and it started to annoy me - I actually have a life these days, one I quite like.
Sure the messages were all 'you're so nice' etc...but it was too full on and obsessive. And I got the impression that he was not sending them as a way of complimenting me but rather as a 'don't forget about me'.
Eventually I met with him and told him thanks but no thanks, and his response was to try and talk me round!! He even grabbed my hand and tried looking into my eyes! This is from a guy I barely know!! He also promised to fill my every need and do whatever I wanted him too.
In the past I would have been flattered by this kind of attention/behavior but these days it just makes me feel sick and like someone is trying to attach themselves to me. I know how these relationships end. I have already had too many of them.
We parted as 'friends' but I had to send him an email yesterday saying stop contacting me, as he has continued to bombared me with texts and emails.
I am so glad I did not get involved with this man and to have learnt I have something inside me now that encourages me to (first of all) look after myself, rather than to look after another.
There's always hope
