[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Jennifer were a man, you'd all be telling OP to run. Women can be creepily persistent too.[/quote]

But Jennifer is not a man and she has not done anything remotely creepy.  [/quote]

Repeatedly texting someone, even after being ignored, then asking for the social media names, being ingored, then searching and friending/following requesting isn't creepy to you?

She sounds pushy.  But it also sounds as though Op was giving her mixed signals.  [/quote]

Op here. Confession - because it had been like 25 years, I thought Jennifer was her sister, whom I would play with as kids sometimes. It was a long time ago and they look related. I had a brain fart - that's why I exchanged numbers. Now I'm stuck and this woman I don't even know will not stop contacting me. And scanning a list to look for someone's name and then find them, is weird. It wasn't like she saw me in a room of a few people.[/quote]

OP, this story sounds like your fault.  Really.  Is she creepy or not?[/quote]

I made a mistake and thought she was someone else.

I am not special, I am not very interesting, Maybe I’m being passive aggressive via “ghosting," but I seriously just want to be left alone.  Do I tell her “I thought you were your sister and was excited to see you, but now that my brain realized you’re not her, I don’t want to be friends” - wouldn’t that be more hurtful?

But she was creepy then, and is creepy now. The persistence and seemingly slight obsession - and *her* wanting validation by constant contact - is weird.

And yeah, if it were a man, you’d all be saying to run fast and run far. [/quote]

Well....you DID give her mixed signals.  You did give her your phone number even after you figured out who she was and even though you knew that she had a history of being intrusive.  Just realize that you started this with her.

Just be boring and she'll move on.
