I assume you don't have anything that might even be a remote possibility of being his?

He left a tiny, plastic $5 fan here when he watched my dogs. He, of course, demanded that I return that in exchange for the DVD player. I've never even used it but I'm happy to return it.

My mom said I am too blame for this because, consciously or not, I was using him. She said "You don't like him! You shouldn't have gone to see that band with him!"

I think she is partly right. But the other part was just hoping he could enjoy a band and act normal.

I definitely give people too many chances.

He just called and said he'd be back in an hour and he'd run it out to the parking lot then. And asked me not to forget his little fan.

You wrote off most GRB posters because of soy sauce.

My sister just dealt with a guy like this, and it can get ugly in a hurry.
Doc, I'm with Haltz on this. This guy sounds like he could become a real problem.

This is by far the most interesting thread I've ever read....I think. I like how you all pschoanalyze this guy based on a few sentences/actions when he was possibly/likely f-ed up.

/no, i'm not giving the damned dvd player back ;)

He didn't have anything to drink that night.

I, on the other hand, tried every single flavored vodka on display behind the bar. They had every single flavor I have ever seen.

I got my DVD player back!

Edit to add: It wasn't a few sentences anyway. It was 2 or 3 hours at the bar repeating the same thing. Then it was the entire ride home. Then it was phone calls, then he showed back up. All to repeat the same sentiment over and over again. But it doesn't matter, it is over now.

I'm not going to lie, I am a little concerned. But I don't want to live a scaredy cat life either. I am thinking of getting an alarm though.
