Dating Horror Story:

Here's one for ya: Met a seemingly nice, mature, together, self-supporting, Christian man three years ago. Mutual attraction, 2-3 months. Two friends met him & approved. Dinner date #1, nice! Dinner date #2, next weekend, also nice. Three days later, said man knocks on my door - I open it & he's on his knees, holding a ring up with a crazed look in his eyes, stating "We have to get married. Everyone who saw me on the freeway today knows we are made for each other." He was "transmitting" this message to folks in other cars. Won't stop leaving tearful messages, leaving letters, e-mailing & sending flowers to my office, etc. Created a web site about me, with pictures of him crying about being without me, crazy blathering, etc. Ad naseum.

At the hearing, before the judge granted the restraining order I requested (after couch-surfing for 5 weeks w/friends, too scared to be at home), this gent tells the judge he'll agree to anything (i.e. a restraining order) but was concerned about his 2nd Amendment rights. !?!

I am now very familiar with mine.

only THREE dates, and he was ready to MARRY?? , Geez-- I can see why you would be worried. And, I suppose you tried to break things off with him, gently, but he would not listen. And this went on for FIVE weeks?? Have to agree with your actions.

I'd be lucky if I was willing to commit to a marriage, within a year,after starting a relationship nowdays, Probably would take more, before I was willing to "tie the knot".
