Scenario 1:

You strike up a conversation with someone and speak at length. Then all of a sudden they have decided that you are the love of their life and they want to spend the rest of their life with you. Meanwhile you've never met the person and you aren't even thinking in that sense about them.

Scenario 2:

A person makes it blatantly obvious that they want more than friendship and you are not interested. They continually persist that they are wanting more than friendship and no matter how you try to deter them and keep the distance they continually keep pushing that boundary.

What do you do if they are persistent in the stated scenarios?

Do you set boudaries and make others aware of those boundaries?

Do you tell them to go fly a kite?I have seen this happen on here several times as well as experienced it myself. I'm sure I could probably think of a million more questions to add...but at least it's a start.






Secenario 1 : Run as fast as you can


Secenario 2: If they don't take the hit .....Block them

Hmmmm let's really throw a wrench in the first scenario...

Maybe you had brief contact with the person many years ago and it was merely due to mutual friends. You've been out of contact wih the friends for a very long time and this person all of a sudden pops up.

Correct.....there you have the chance to explore.....meet the person on various dates and see how it feelsconversing ...don't accept "madly in love" statements based on memories!

Might be a personal choice but i am looking for may things in a man...maturity , ability to deal with life in a realistic manner...en fininnocent...that his radar is functioning better than mine, if not just as well.
When he suddenly tells me " i wanna marry you" over no basis, makes me wonderconfused ......where are his values, reasoning.....and all the other terrifying things added to my listvery mad ....and that makes him weak in my eyes...and I am outta there!scold cartwheel super joy

i agree with you , so easy to portray only what we want people to see, maybe because you only see what you want to if you are lonely

Internet and dating sitesr a place where people from all over the world can contact each other, to send information, to find new friends. It looks simple and friendly way to socialize but it hides in itself bad things, of course.When chatting with people you can say whtever you want but its not sure that the person from the other side is a friend of yours.They can use the information that you give in some way to offend you or to know some very personal details.You only decide whether to trust. dunno

Yes and many feed off what we say. Like relationships notice how wonderful the person is at first later on they changed so much its like they never was who they claim to be, They use what we say how bad someone treated us and so on to become that special person and when you realize that what their whole attentions were its than to late . NOw you have to live with this person or what ever and put up with new and will never ever see the old person you suppose to been with.

First and foremost, I would never imagine of building any form of relationship beyond pure friendship without having met the person first hand.


Secondly, if immediately somebody places love into the formula on the first meeting, my instinct would tell me to run like hell......something definately wrong with the person involved, mentally I mean....

And if someone comes on heavy on me and I am not inclined......well, just tell them to F off....and goodnight to that..

problem solved?

I would confront her and ask her some questions. I would say that this person is desperate and looking for somebody to make her happy. I would surely say that the person is very much unstable and unhappy with herself as well as her life. I would more than likely cut it off right there.

I would put my foot down and straight up say that I am not interested. If it persists, then I simply ignore her. If it still persists, then would in a sense say go fly a kite.

These were my thoughts and responses and I have told them such. They have said that the people have still been persisting such matters hence the reason I have asked for other input on it.
