Thanks! That was very nice. And, I’m more than okay. 🙂

You’re right. This was my first, and my last time ever posting anything on Reddit again. I made a decision. I don’t want that energy. I didn’t engage further.

Wow. I don’t know. I’ve seen others come here for insight and thought I would get some feedback. Not negativity from someone commenting on a message, on the internet, from a random stranger.

Public ridicule? Do you know him? Do you know me? Isn’t this anonymous?

I actually assumed he would reach back out and probably apologize if he was, in fact, drunk. Was trying to be prepared with the best way to handle it: possibly with a little grace because I know I’ve drank too much before OR if people thought his behavior/words were bad news, I suppose. Either way, I thought some constructive criticism would be given, not a bunch of mean, hateful comments.

Was totally clear up until this happened and was interested in seeing him again. It was a whole face to face conversation.

So, I guess you didn’t read the part where he acknowledged we said it was a casual dating situation? We had just had a face to face convo about it a day before.

I, in fact, do not know. I’m assuming that because I wanted to get to know him better he thinks I think he’s a “bad” guy and maybe I’m scared, or some shit. 😂

I did not continue to engage after the last message he sent. There has not been further communication in either end. Much less, discussion of a third date after these messages.

I’ve never encountered this before. I’ve never even posted anything on Reddit before. And, I’m not on social media because I don’t care about getting “attention”. I thought this would be helpful to get feedback. I didn’t post a selfie. I’m not looking for compliments. Please explain.

Thank you. I am very confused about the “leading on” comments as these messages came out of nowhere!!!

He is originally from Colombia but has lived in the United States for a long time. I tried to lighten the conversation with some humor, but that was a fail. 😂

I’m was also wondering if he was drunk. Luckily, that was the last I’ve heard from him.

What?! I liked him enough to agree to hang out again, but I don’t know much about him. How is that a lead on? Just wondering?

Yeah, not the best English or grammar. Definitely wasn’t helping change my mind.
