stalkers…
So last week I sent a text to a coworker to see if she was OK… thought she might be upset about something… this is what happened:
4/11 5:22 pm Me: You ok?
4/11 5:23 pm Them: Who is this
4/11 5:24 pm Me: Laura
4/11 5:24 pm Me: oh, and Terri… she said to tell you it’s your two favorite people
4/11 5:26 pm Them: i dont know a laura or a terri i think u got the wrong number srry
4/11 5:26 pm Me: You’re not Claire?
4/11 5:28 pm Them: Nah my names dave srry
4/11 5:29 pm Me: Sorry. Thanks.
4/11 5:30 pm Them: Its cool

4/11 7:56 pm someone from a different number: hey its daves friend i heard about you whats up
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4/11 9:51 pm from dave again: Heyy wats up
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4/11 9:55 pm from a THIRD person: Uhm hi…? Idk who you are but dave told me to text you.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
4/11 10:06 pm back to Dave: its dave remember me i got nothin to do sooo i was like ima text those chicks that texted me earlier but had the wrong number soooo heyy
NEW DAY:
4/12 3:45 pm Dave: Heyy wats up
4/12 9:02 pm Dave: Heyy wyd
4/12 9:28 pm Dave: Hey its dave come on im bored talk to me
4/12 11:08 pm Dave: Heyy
ANOTHER NEW DAY:
4/13 2:08 am Dave: heyy its dave i just thought that since i got ur number now cuz u texted me we might as well talk u know i mean i got nothin better to do
MANY DAYS LATER (just when you think it’s safe!)
4/17 9:26 pm Dave: Heyy wats up its dave again… u still ignorin me come on i just wanna talk im really bored i got no one else to talk to
Ok so… I have a text stalker (or three
)… since I haven’t responded to him (or them) since the very beginning when I thought he was my coworker I’m guessing he is quite desperate… (and probably institutionalized!). Exactly how does one get rid of a text stalker?
I know how to rid the bathroom from all visitors for at least an hour after my potty stop at Starbucks and I know how to give the stink eye to creepers in the grocery store… but text stalkers??? what am I supposed to do? call the police and say OFFICER! HE SAID “HEYY” TO ME!!!?
I have considered sending him a picture of my 79 year old aunt and telling him it’s me
… but I am not sure he would be turned off by this! (smh 
)To make matters worse (as IF!) mom is trying to ask every kid she sees if his name is Dave… yeah… thanks mom! (not!
)

Hmmmm! So its DAVE that texts you! Woo Hoo I was first!
I should have known it was DAVE! :hammer:
Haha – It could only happen to you! Just keep ignoring him.
Block him! Link
You can only block 5 numbers though! That sucsticates! Hey! I think that’s a new word! Sucsticates!
wow…I am glad that I do not have texting on my phone…cannot see the letters on the phone anyhows…I got a funny text once from someone asking me if it was safe yet…I kept it for a while…did not respond cuz I did not recoginize the number…never nothing again…but he mustta kept your number in his phone to be doing all that there texting…I would block the number unless of course ya wanted to hang on to the number for a while…
Wow lol, annoying but love how you told it. Good luck!
Heyy, why are you trying to block me? j/k I would send an official looking text back saying the number no longer exists. When he texts again repeat; by the third time he may really believe it.
Yikes! Tell him your husband is looking for him. :-/
i would say ” i dont think you would be into me, i’m a tranny” or something like that or just block him if he still bothers you that is.
have a guy friend call him from your number and let him know what’s what.
@Emily_Rose_Dreams - that’s a great idea! it’s fake blocking… with entertainment! @DanishDoll - how about I tell him YOUR husband is looking for him… and is loaded with peas? @Donkey_Guy_10 - I didn’t know I could do that! (and that’s the best new word i’ve heard! … wait… i’ve heard the word? isnt that a song? wait… that’s the bird… he’s the word… not him (dave) but him bird is the word… great… now i have THAT song in my head!)@saintvi - I secretly confess, he is entertaining me…. annoying, but entertaining! I’m amazed at his tenacity! This kid (he’s gotta be a kid… right???) has a future as … SOMEthing? @Donkey_Guy_10 - YOU WERE FIRST!!!!! YOU WERE FIRST!!!!!
I would go with @Donkey_Guy_10‘s suggestion… try ignoring 1st and if he becomes too annoying, block. Then again, I kind of like the idea of the FAKE official looking texts. Lol Good Luck.
Give me time, I’ll track him down. How many Dave’s can there be in the county?
that’s just crazy…how does a wrong number turn into a new stalker lol
Nice! You hit on a guy and then try to block him. Just like a Queen to do something like that! I am surprised that the phone’s do not have a block function. Can your cell number be private? Can I have it? HA!Text on… text on!!!
I hate texting but if people can be succint and just write important stuff it is all good. It is easier to ignore text than a phone call unless you have a way to ignore vibrate…..
I know my cell does not have the blocking on it. But your suggestion of taking your aunt’s picture and sending is hilarious. But the best is to ignore it.
Hey, I have a friend called Dave. I’ll tell him to cut it out.
You could go through your phone service provider and have the number blocked that way you won’t have to hear from creepy guy again.
Aren’t those just the best?! I had a few at one point in time, if you say things that may freak them out. They are likely to just ignore you. And if it does continue, you really can get the police involved for harassment and disturbance. Good Luck! :hammer:
So you have been textually assaulted? :ROTFL:Dave probably wrote your number on the men’s room wall: “For a good text: [Your Number]” Poor Dave! He doesn’t know that you could give his number to… SPAZZZZ!!!!
i suggest sending him a cartoon pic and say that that’s you. but i actually think might encourage him to go on
That would only work if he hates peas as much as the Pea Hater! I have every confidence in your mom. She’s gonna take him DOWN!
wow. Some folks must be really starved for human interaction.
what a dilemma…amusement or creepiness?
So you have been textually assaulted? :ROTFL:
