    but seriously we should set up some club where only 'sane' lesbians would be considered for membership. we could have them fill out a questionaire to filter out the stalkers ! then we could have an, ' i've had the most psychotic/stalker story' competition !

    I mean do girls actually think that if they stalk you and freak you out enough that one day we might just wake up and say "ah yes...sher she's trying hard il give her a go" ...ahhh noooo....complete opposite....

    Is it a needy type person, crazy or just severe lack of independence??

    First of all, I don't think ALL women behave this way, just a number (unfortunately too many).
    And yes, I think some straight women do it too.

    First of all, I thnk the "stalker" from the OP is transferring her ideals onto this lady - if she's made it clear she doesn't want a relationship, any continuous "begging" for a "chance" is symptomatic of not accepting the rejection and feeling that somehow, if only given a "chance" she can "seduce" the OP. This is delusional, but it doesn't mean she's crazy - it means she's got things very, very wrong, and probably feels she hasn't been given a fair chance. Thats not unreasonable to feel, BUT the OP should not feel under pressure to give anybody a chance she's not interested in. Who anyway would want to date somebody who has no interest in them?

    Its actually sometimes harder to handle rejecting than it is a rejection as its quite flattering to hear how wonderful you are from somebody, but you don't want to shoot people down. Its easiest to verbally make things clear and reiterate it as much as possible. But if you are being bombarded with texts and getting uninvited phone calls - make it clear that this is not acceptable and that they will not be answered.

    If this person persists in piling on the adoration I think its important to make it clear that you cannot maintain any sort of friendship under those circumstances and that they will have to stop or the friendship will come to an end.

    Good point from renraw - actually I know quite a few gay guys who really gave exes a hard time after a breakup or rejection.

    Can sympathise with OP and think the dilemma is "do I reply to be nice and hope against hope that it isn't misread as a come-on" or ignore as this person is unstable enough to continue ignoring the clearly stated fact that you've reiterated several times that you don't share her feelings and are not interested. I think since this is somebody you don't know, the best bet is to ignore - you really don't have the safety or luxury of knowing that this lady won't turn on you if you keep in touch or try to keep things at friendship level, in fact I get a distinct impression that any sort of frienship would be viewed as a potential backroad to a relationship.

    I think the main thing I would advise to anybody who is meeting people on dating sites is either hide your email address (most services allow you to do this) and don't tell them anywhere identifiable where you live or work, just in case. Some people might be too unstable to understand that turning up at homes or workplaces isn't on.

    And ladies, there are lots of nice women out who are femme, normal and sane. I will be at Kiss myself on Friday with 2 equally sane friends, so there will be at least 3 of us!

    But i don't need to meet you !...............i'm standing outside your window !!!!!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::D


    YAAAAAAY, all my dreams have come true!!! (now fcuk off, lol)

    i'd win the psychotic stalker story competition, hands down (from the point of BEING stalked that is, not the other way around!), in fact, i have 2 whoopers!!!

    and did you mention "sane lesbians"? it better be one LONG list of questions to reach that point.......sure we're all mad, even us on this thread, :D

    I was going to add a cautionary tale of a near-stalker experience that happened to me 10 years ago, but you'd all think I was a right bawdy slut if I told you the full details.

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,257 ✭✭✭BettePorter


    yeah that would be cool, though it could backfire coz all the stalker types are reading this now and in fairness if you're a stalker you probably don't acknowledge it ! so i can only speak for myself, and what if i turn up to the meet and you're all friggin stalkers ! it would be like invasion of the body snatchers ! i'd have just got rid of one stalker and gained 6 at a anti stalker convention ! you know the saying; 1 in 5 people are unbalanced, pick 4 friends, if they seem ok............you're the one !!!!!:D

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭lycopodium123

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,257 ✭✭✭BettePorter


    lets hope her 'stalker' hasn't been reading this and taken her 'single white female' obsession a step further !!:eek:

    it is a bit strange that the OP hasn't been back on.

    maybe it's one of you lot that began this thread in the first place:eek:

    Jez...nutters and hermaphrodites...sounds like a regular saturday night in the George alright....seriously tho...do you girls go out on scene much??

    I was out last weekend 1st time since dub pride before that was January....i have resigned myself to the fact i will never meet my soul mate in these places...and for the record im usually a very positive person but not this time...lol...or maybe i'm just too fussy...nothing wrong with that either eh..:confused:


    So maybe Mohill and in proper lesbian attire down a few few snake bytes .....lol:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭lycopodium123


    Mohill and snake bytes.......sounds delightful!!!

    I don't really go out on the scene that much anymore - too much of the same crap all the time....

    You've met my last girlfriend/stalker then !

    no seriously, the liz hurley types are all i seem to come across :P:P (That was intentional too !) and if there not like that on the first date............they are on the second cause 'why bother making and effort once we're married' !

    Ya Liz Hurley's galore they seem to make the world go round in this neck of the woods for sure!! Dont quite get that whole dressing like a lad thing(gonna stop there..subject for a new thread)!!

    But yes women making an effort is so important.....maybe all these nice appearance apprectiating young 30something year old gay women are in straight bars?.....:confused:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 72 ✭✭lycopodium123


    is there much of a gay scene where you guys are?


  • Registered Users Posts: 137 ✭✭Fancy That


    Well down in Galway there is the stage door bar....and then twirlys nightclub also eden on every so often. Not been to that tho. Was at pride last week...a night in Salthill....it was ok.

    So in all not much really!!!!

    How bout your area??


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,257 ✭✭✭BettePorter


    theres a bit of a scene where i am, quite a good one really one night a week, but i'm not really into the scene tbh. i suppose i live a very straight life day to day if i think about it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 255 ✭✭mollzer


    Just a quick word re the OP post, I dated a woman I met online once, she initially said she had never been with a woman before. We dated for a bit but she got very OTT. Later it turned out she had lied to me initially and that she had been with another woman (said it had slipped her mind ! ya right).

    I think its the same for straight girls or lesbians, plenty of stalker straight men/women out there. Cannot understand someone telling ya they love ya on the first date! before they know anything about ya, fair enough if you know them for a long time etc....

    Oh and btw there are plenty of nice lesbians out there, but forums like this are a better place to start, really get to know someone a bit better than just on those dating sites!
    And def a great idea meeting in groups.... much safer.
