Weirdly enough I just read your creeper entry on the friends of metaquotes page.
How to deal with creeper. Start with "you are creeping me out and I need you to back off." any resposes of thats not what I meant you say "You are still creeping me out and I need you to back off." response of But I whatever... you say "you are creeping me out and I need you to back off." basically stonewall him with this. if he says it was a joke you say "It wasn't funny, It was inappropriate, It was creepy and I don't spend time with people who think that's a joke. You need to leave me alone." You don't owe him anything else, not even an explanation. be clear and brief.
haha yeah I accidentally had it on public for five minutes whoops. thank you for the advice, I think stonewalling might be the best solution here unfortunately.
and also thank you for the rec, I looked it up and it seems pretty useful.
You're welcome. It seems like he has boundary issues and the only safe way to deal with those people are to be very clear about yours. If they think they can push you around they will. Good Luck.
