> And for some reason, all of the "great lady" talk sort of grosses me out!
<<The whole thing creeped me out. I mean, he said I asked him to call after 7, not 8. Um, 8pm *is* after 7, isn't it? And he's afraid I'd think he was *ignoring* me and forgot to call???? I'm sure one of his 8 messages would have tipped me off. Duh!
And then he starts that crap about my being a liberal, independent *lady* so he can't understand why I'd be scared. Hmmmmm, liberal, independent women can also be killed by psychos.

> You handled it with great tact and discretion - a rarity these days!<<Thank you. I actually felt I was being really rude and abrupt, but I have a problem with confrontation anyway. Maybe he had the best of intentions -- I didn't want to hurt his feelings. But I do think I did him a favor by telling him why I was weirded out by the whole thing. I'm sure he's done this to any other women he's contacted....
