When you perceive someone as being overly enthusiastic about your relationship when you barely know them, how does that make you feel?

1 Answer

Answer :

I tend to be suspicious of them, it doesn’t sit well with me when someone I hardly know behaves like that, acting as if they’re my best friend when they’re not. I met one guy like that recently and in a matter of minutes he thought we were best buds, affectionately started calling me justin bieber (I coulda killed him for that), and began barraging me with texts and calls throughout the day including one time texting me at 2 am asking me what I had for dinner, how was my day, and if I wanted to meet up in about an hour to hang out.
