Obviously not bothered.

I’ve really been noticing how badly some men react when we don’t give them access to information they ask for. They seem to have a real problem about it. It’s superbly unattractive! It sends me creep shivers when they push.

You can't just block them. They can keep getting new fake numbers to harass you if they are so inclined. That's why some women have to change their number. And he knows that so FUCK him. Any man that doesn't respect a woman being careful is not a good man. Good men know how bad other men can be and they respect the hell out of shit like this.

I think it’s a solid move on your part and as a woman we should ONLY do this. But I think if a guy gave me a burner number, I’d probably think he’s married. However males need to understand its different for them than us, as males are so violent and predatory.

I make it clear beforehand that I am giving someone a google voice number to protect my privacy until we establish a level of trust.

Any bad reaction to that gets the block. Good men will understand without question.

You did GOOD! You dont have to explain yourself ir apologize to him for your safety.

For something that didn't bother him, he sure did take it personally! In my opinion you saved yourself time. Next!

"Best Wishes™️" the universal phrase of self righteous fuckboy wannabes

Also "off-putting" is a way for them to make you feel like you gotta work harder. Or he's a colossal moron

I feel like the only reasons I can come up with for a man being bothered by doing this, all point to him being a shit person that you don't want anything to do with.

If the goal is to talk to you more frequently and have a more "personal" connection with you than an app where you've got 1,000 other men trying to talk to you, this should be more than sufficient. They're just liars and want to have some power over the situation and our phone numbers provide that.

You even offered to FaceTime, which he declined, proving he wasn't worried about being catfished or whatever. "Best wishes" What a douche.

My ex asked for my email address (that I primary use for my job). He said "I can't reach you anytime without it" (duh that's the point) "just contact me through FB"I said, he got upset but I was already planning how to get rid of him, he did a lot of LVM stuff. Thankfully I never gave me any other avenues to track me because he blew up my phone with threats as soon as I broke up with him ( over the phone in a safe location)

Lol "something does not add up" fragile masculinity trying to make you feel like a psycho for being careful.

2020-01-17T00:36:18+00:00

So you made the right decision.

cherieblosum · 2020-01-17T03:57:55+00:00

Lmao. I only give guys my Google voice number. He's an ass. Why does he care what number you give? It's still a real one.

randomgirlimok · 2020-01-17T05:01:58+00:00

If you type your cellphone number into google your name and address will come up. Never give a stranger your real number, only google voice

heythere360 · 2020-01-17T00:29:53+00:00

No harm no foul on either end as far as I’m concerned.

picturesofpics · 2020-01-17T09:42:32+00:00

I would never give my number to some guy.
