Hey yall, this Australian girl is bugging me. Wat do
hey yall I have a problem. I met this wonderfully nice girl at an international exchange conference that lasted a week. After talking with her (english is her second language) she expressed a desire to convert her life experiences into words. I write as a hobby so I was like, why dafudge not. It's good practice to work with authentic thoughts and ideas. So I'm writing right? and she begins to tell me weird things like, "don't write too much-- the whole thing should only be 750 characters" & "can you embellish me a little more than the other people you wrote about?" girl. I ain't a fiddle that is played, y'all. I knew then and there that she was using me to write a personal statement essay because I overhead she was lowkey freaking about the difficulty of getting into American schools because of her english writing skills days before. After the exchange, I deleted most of what I wrote (it was in google drive) and confronted her via text (we've all since flown home) and asked her directly: "is u using my words m8 or nah" and she said "no" (please. ) but "I'd ask if I wanted to"....I want to cut her off and not reply to her stuff but I feel like thats mean lol mind y'all, she lives down under (Austrailia) and im in the US. Ive ignored her for the past two weeks now but she keeps finding ways to contact me. First thru fb, then twitter, whatsapp, some videogame forum I talked about, and finally, tumblr. Im tired of blocking her lol. What should I dooooo ranting here has relieved some of my stress about it this is why I like to write yall. it has beneficial properties!

Australia has a lot of foreigners, mostly from Asian countries. I wouldn't be surprised.

You can't really control how a person will react but maybe you can try saying: "Hi, I know you've been trying to contact me but it's actually starting to bother me now. Would you mind stopping?" or "Hey, I know we met at the conference a few weeks ago but I'm not too interested in going beyond that. It's really starting to bother me"
Okay, I'm a really blunt person so after reading that maybe it's not the right thing to say[/quote]
I ended up being assertive and pretty blunt! I'm pretty sure she got the message. She promptly blocked me back on WhatsApp but I don't mind. It was annoying to see her pop up on various social media >.< Thank you

seems you got yourself an obsessive-ish person I deeply apologize for the person's behaviour :L not all aussies are like that..
but with that said, @riverstar seemed to have the right idea, you have to be blunt to certain people to get their attention..
[quote=cygnusbabii]LOL I'd rather not haha. She was nice so I'm going to tell her off nicely ... but definitely not too nicely >.< >.<[/quote]

[quote=skyenets]Tell her to piss off and then just block her. She'll get the message eventually and give up.[/quote]
That's what I've been thinking to do I guess seeing someone else think the same way confirms how I feel. Maybe I'm just too damn nice. Funnily enough, during the exchange, a group of my peers who come from Asia came up to me and said I'm the nicest American they've met. I honestly was shocked to hear that. I just like being kind. Nevertheless, I hate instances where people take advantage of my kindness. Luckily, I'm starting college in the fall. I'll be able to reinvent myself and be cautious about being overly nice I need to stomp my foot down and only give out my goodies to those who deserve them. Thank you
