Not Another Bad Date~

Hello lovelies!  I'm glad that y'all are enjoying the dating series.  It makes me excited that it is off to such a wonderful start.  I have received so many great stories that I can't wait to share with you!  Beginning next week,  I will only be posting the series on Mondays and I will be sharing two stories that day.   But since I'm not on schedule yet, why not share one more story ;)

From this point out all stories will be anonymous unless otherwise noted.


I had been seeing a guy for about a week and a half. I won't lie, the first time we hooked up I was 3 sheets to the wind. Never a good idea and also never the beginning of a long, healthy relationship; But I was willing to try. 

After the 5th time we hung out and some counseling from friends, I realized I needed to tell him it just wasn't going to work out. I can not begin to explain how nice this guy is, and I really did not want to hurt him further down the road. Here is where I must confess something else though. I ended things through a text message. I know, I know. Please don't hate me. 
He seemed ok with things though and said we should remain friends. 

We continued to talk sporadically through text until he sent me a text about a week later saying basically "I am hammered. I was never good enough for you or anyone else so you know what that means. " 1. I did not know what that meant. 2. I rather frantically sent him a response saying "That is absolutely not the case. We are just in different places in our lives right now."

Cut to the next day where he tells me he has "never been that drunk" and his night was "completely ridiculous." I was understanding and giggled a little. 

So the next day he calls to tell me the full story of his crazy night. This is where you may start saying to yourself "Why in the world would this guy feel the need to tell you all this?" And believe me, I was thinking the same thing. 

He tells me he was "threatening to kill himself and jump off a bridge." But apparently there was no bridge where he was. At this point I inform him that no matter how drunk he was, that is not a normal thing to say or threaten and he may want to talk to someone. He basically dismissed my suggestion and continued talking. 

His friend had informed his father of what he was saying and doing. He then recounts his conversation with his dad to me. 
Father "What is this I hear about you threatening to kill yourself over some girl?"
I interject "what did he mean some girl?!"
Guy " I uhhh well I don't know but he was like 'this was about some girl who worked at (insert name of my former employer)'"

Now I am incredibly, insanely uncomfortable. We had dated for A LITTLE OVER A WEEK! I got off the phone as quickly as possible.... 

I am not sure what to do now, but I know going out with him again is definitely not up for consideration. 

Readers, any advice or suggestions?

so stinkin' excited about this series. Is there another one posted?!

Clearly that guy needed to deal with some of his own personal issues. I just don't see how that could be about a girl after being together for one week! crazy.

Oh my gosh, what a creeper! My skin crawled just reading that! I would honestly cut off all contact. Nothing good can come from continuing any sort of relationship (even just friends).

Nicole said...

Oh wow, that story is crazy!!! I agree with Heather, I wouldn't talk to him ever again!!

Krisha Johansen said...

OH MY GOODNESS!! How crazy!!

This story reminds me of a guy that I used to work with. He was persistant in asking me out and wanting to date me!! He got my number through work and drunkenly called me 36 times in one night!! Not to mention the countless text messages... He kept telling me that he would have to check himself BACK into the mental hospital if he couldn't be with me. I definitely quit my job after that.

There are some strange people out there...

Stage 5 clinger, RUN, don't answer his calls or texts, do no friend him on any social networks. He sounds crazy, and dramatic. Trust me, you don't want any of that.

Meri said...

I love this series already- but man, its scary out there isn't it! Run, don't walk!

Cait said...

ahhhhh its a lil scary girl..i agree with everyone! RUN! xo

Megan said...

That's scary!! I'd just keep my distance from him. He sounds like he needs a little bit of help!

Katie said...

I totally love this feature!!

Tanya (a Taste of T) said...

He should really seek professional help. Suicide is no joking matter.

Sam {fitnessfoodandfaith.blogspot.com} said...

oh my word. crazy boy!! poor thing, i hope he was able to start some therapy.

Megan said...

this is so funny! i never really went on any dates growing up...so i have nothing to contribute... funny to leaugh at these stories though ;-)

Ashley said...

yikes that's intense! sucks to have to deal with but sounds like this rando has some issues he needs to work throw - people can't hold you hostage saying things like that - not cool!

ixy said...

Great feature idea! Definitely best to cut off contact - you've already suggested he talk to someone. There's not much else you can do.
