Mr Nigeria

I like people. I love meeting new people. But the events of the past couple of years have made me a bit wary of them, however I seem to be getting over this and am enjoying meeting and chatting to new people.

So, I joined this site - a friendship site, not primarily a dating site - and I've chatted to a few people (and I met Mr LD through it).

So, I get chatting to this bloke whose profile says that he lives in Elgin in Scotland. We chat on Messenger and he tells me he's been working in Nigeria for the past four years. It becomes apparant to me that English is not his first language - although he insists it is.

I quiz him about the Scotland connection and he tells me that his parents came from there, that he was born in London and that he'd spent some time in America.

We swapped phone numbers and he rang me - and it was very very clear that English isn't his first language. I just couldn't understand him. I was feeling a bit uncomfortable about the whole thing and texted him telling him so and asking him not to contact me. This was about two weeks ago. And he's called me frequently since then, although I haven't picked up the phone.

This evening he's phoned seven times in the space of about 10 minutes. I've texted him and said that if he wishes to speak with me, I'm online. But I've heard nothing.

So I'm not altogether sure what that's all about - you'd think he'd have given up by now! And, I've just logged onto the website and tried to look at his profile - it's been blocked for activities that go against the T&C! So obviously I'm not the only one he's been harassing!

Oh well, makes life interesting I suppose!
