Awkward comments.

I just had this conversation on reddit, I normally don't respond to this kind of messages, just press the "ban" button, but today I felt empowered by some feminist reading and felt like answering. FYI I've uploded TWO pictures of a bra for fit check and nothing else. Was this a good way to handel the situation? I think I'll wait a couple of days asking on reddit because this man made me uncomfortable.

I do not know how to answer this. A "thank you" would mean I appreciated it, which, don't get me wrong, I did at first, but it's also (as your alias suggests) rather awkward getting this sort of messages. It's not really a suitable opening line unless it's four a.m. and we're both very drunk. I don't mean to offend you in any way, but you did post a thread for advice on how to stop beeing labled "creepy".
Please don't respond to this or send me further messages unless in a less creepy way. Thanks.

well i mean, it was 4 am for me when I sent that, so does it count?

Not really. Sending creepy messages to someone you've never met is never a good idea, regardless of time. It just makes you comes across as very unpleasant, with stalker vibes and can often be percieved as a little sexist. Sorry.

it's only creepy because you don't want it. also i never said i knew where you lived so this is hardly stalker behaviour

But you knew that was probably how I would percieve it, right? If I would have wanted that sort of attention I would definately have posted in another sub, not as fit check in ABTF. I know you never said that you know where I live, or anything like that, but I just tried to explain what sort of vibes that kind of messages send out. You know, trying to help you get rid of that "creep" stamp, by explaining how it makes me feel and hoppfully you'll understand that it's rather inappropriate so that you can pick another subject for your other correspondences.

i had no expectations as to how you would receive it. Also, that post you read was from like 2 years ago. lol.

It's ok, but please don't send this type of message to me again because it makes that old post very relevant.

[–]till X skickat för just nu
Thank you.
