Do you frequently "friend" people on FB that you are not friends with in real life? Maybe it would be best to decline the FB friend requests until she gets the message.

I never accept a friend request on FB unless I know who that person is in real life.

I don't accept any friends requests but it doesn't stop people sending me messages.

I will continue to block and ignore if it doesn't stop I will talk to the police.

Again, assumptions... this time friending on FB, which you never mentioned you did.

Upon further thought, however, it isn't just your honest admission that you were intrigued that is a little puzzling. You have this stalker, you know she uses friends and fake profiles, yet you gave out your phone number to one of them without caution.

So.. although I think we have wrung you through the wringer a bit, some of it is understandable.

I think you should get off line for several months. There are other ways you can meet people for dating purposes in person, such as singles groups that get together for dinner and other social events. If you meet people in person, you will know who you are dealing with a lot better than on-line.

Every time this girl contacts you if she finds your email or phone tell her, "I consider this harassment. Do not contact me." If she contacts you after you say this once, contact the police and ask them to intervene.

And know - this girl, with her multiple profiles - is probably doing this to multiple men. Don't start thinking that you're the only guy. This is how she feeds her ego and entertains herself, by creating a bunch of profiles to create a bunch of fake relationships with a lot of people. In fact, she may not be a girl at all. She could be 60 for all you know. And your thought that she's mature? Uhm, no - the words I'd use to describe this would be crazy, immature, needy, self-absorbed, liar.

Getting involved with this alleged young "her" is really a dumb, dumb idea. Besides being underage, she's also nuts. You're better off to meet a women your age at church, a pub, doing some sort of charity work, or through singles events or a dating service that does not rely on computers. Stop hiding behind your computer and go meet people in person.

After reading everyone's posts to you I would just like to add one thing. If you do not take anyone's advice please just do one thing. Protect yourself from any legal backlash this person could create against you. You must be able to prove that you have did nothing to encourage any of her persistent attention. You need to make a log of every time she has contacted you. Even all the aliases she has used. Then go to the police and make a report if for no other reason than to have it on record so she cannot come back and turn the whole mess around on you. Then I would do as, Dontknownuthin suggested, and let her know " you consider this harrassment and do not contact me anymore" I would not waver from this statement. Do not reply in any other way. Then I would let the police handle it if she continues. In doing this you are not sending anything that could be construed as a "mixed" message to her and you will stay in the right in the eyes of the law. And believe me you do not want it any other way if you value your freedom and don't want to vacation in jail. That is why girls such as her are referred to as "Jail Bait" Please for your own sake do what you must to protect yourself. I hope that what I have said and the others will help you and influence you to do what is smart. Good Luck.

I agree Kraft... this could be an effort to set you up. Go proactively to the police with her various aliases and profile names and ask if they would have any means of tracking her down and talking to her parents about her dangerous behavior.

Again, "She" may not be a young girl at all - you could be communicating with a 60 year old guy for all you know. People who make fake profiles are probably creating alter egos as well. Could well be a gay or transgender adult guy who's not out, but wants to flirt with men.

"Could well be a gay or transgender adult guy who's not out, but wants to flirt with men." We could also call this person a nut case without slamming the whole gay community.

But I agree with you and think about it. What 15/16 year old goes to this length? And if she is as attractive as stated, she would be getting hit on in school and wouldn't need this attention.

I never thought about this angle. Someone "posing" and I totally agree.

This is what police do to catch pedophiles as well.

Not slamming the whole gay community. My point is that the poster may well not be who they claim to be.

One example of motivation to create a fake profile to flirt with a man would be if a person is attracted to men but cannot openly admit to it. This might be explained if the person was gay but not able for whatever reason to come out and live honestly as a gay person, or possibly if they are transgender and wish to be a young girl, but are not physically a young girl. It could also be a woman in her forties or fifties who's lonely, or a straight guy doing this as a gag, or a group of friends who create fake profiles to amuse themselves. I didn't mean the examples to be exhaustive - just to make the point that he shouldn't take anything this person has claimed at face value.

I don't think I implied in any way that all or most gay or transgender people create fake profiles and stalk people on the internet. It was more of an, "for all you know, it could be this guy, or that guy...."

Gracias. I didn't take offense to it and I usually don't when it comes to gay things. I've lived long enough to know we aren't accept on every corner.

But I do agree with you. I don't get stalking behavior but that is probably a very good thing.
