Guess you have to give up on the gently approach!!!

Tell him out straight you don't want to see him.

Why let him down gently ?

Maybe try the more direct "which part of NO don't you understand " approachhug

well it was a mutual ending didnt do it face to face tho i would be very uncomfortable meeting him after all the things he has said now, being very forceful and one half bordering on a threat

yeah,thats a bit controlling of him...
you cant allow him to wreak your head like that,even if he is a good guy ,and yolu wanted to do it nicely,sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind-otherwise it could be a very long,drawn out end...

Well then........ add some words to make it clearer for him....such as ........."which part of NO, now get lost before I call the guards don't you understand"............?

Men have selective hearing, you should know that by now !.

you dont have to meet anyone face to face,if you dont feel comfortable after all dats been said-i wouldnt either,and u owe him nothing,,,

get a male friend to either answer ur fone the next time he rings,and say hes your new boyfriend whos staying with you for a while,or get someone to ring him and tell him,he needs to backoff-

in this day and age-you dont need that carry on..
where you with him long.....

thats true, i know him 6 weeks, i wouldnt let anyone say to me what he said to me today, so why would i let him treat me any different ... so my guilt for not meeting him face to face now is diminishing

6 weeks,are you crazy allowing this crap,after six weeks..
can you imagine him in 6 months-it doesnt even bare thing about !!!

theres no way ,if i was a close friend to you,id tell you this-no way!!!

get rid,by whatever means ..he isnt been nice to you,so dont waste anymore time,been nice either..
can you block his number from your phone,i can block numbers on mine...

after that,really you must tell him you have been advised to give his number and name to the guards.

look after yourself,and have no concern for someone like that-trust me!teddybear

Well everyone has off days when they do and say things that are out of character for them it could be down to stress, tiredness, hormones or worried about something. dunno

I hate saying this Littlemiss because I think you are a really lovely sweet girl but maybe you are giving him the wrong signals without realising it
