Let's face it, dating can be hell. Especially since some guys just can't take a hint. Take this story out of New York.
This woman named Lauren met a banker named Mike at the New York Philharmonic one night. Mike went on to ask Lauren on a date, and let's just say sparks didn't fly and Lauren wasn't feeling it. In fact Lauren went as far as to later describe the date as "horrific".
According to Scallywag, Mike apparently thought the date went great and even called Lauren for a second date. And called, and called, and called. When Lauren repeatedly hit "ignore", Mike went online and found her email address.
According to the Daily Mail, he wrote her a 1615 word manifesto as to why Lauren should continue seeing him.
Some of his points include: You played with your hair a lot. A woman playing with her hair is a common sign of flirtation. You can even do a Google search on it.
We had lots of eye contact during our date. On a per-minute basis, I've never had as much eye contact during a date as I did with you.
You said, 'It was nice to meet you' at the end of our date. A woman could say this statement as a way to show that she isn't interested in seeing a man again or she could mean what she saidthat it was nice to meet you. The statement, by itself, is inconclusive.
We had a nice conversation over dinner. I don't think I'm being delusional in saying this statement.
Lauren was so turned off by the long email she decided to post it on reddit for the entire world to read, including heartbroken Mike.
Do you think this guy went too far? And should the girl have posted the email?
