The Stalker Chronicles, Part III

So last week I mentioned my reunion with Frenchie, a rather Groundhog Day-like experience in that it was a repeat of the exact circumstances in which we met, which he apparently does not remember. To add to this bizarre turn of events is the following text message exchange I had today with my co-worker:

Her: Do you remember one time we were walking somewhere and a random French guy started talking to you?
Me: I have a French stalker, but not sure it's the same person. Why?
Her: Someone just started texting me named [intentionally omitted]? Claiming we met in Dupont. He described me as "sweet" and "nice". Doesn't sound like me. [Editor's note: she is indeed neither sweet, nor nice, and is in fact a self-described Big Angry Black Woman.]
Me: OMG! That is him!!!! How does he have your number???
Her: I. Don't. Know.
Me: Wait. Remember when I made you call that random number for me? What's the number??
Her: 202-257-2340 [Intentionally included--take that Stalker!]. That must be how he got it. What an odd ball.
Me: That's him!!! What a psycho!!
Her: He asked me to meet him for coffee in Adams Morgan.

So apparently the freak who can't remember me also can't keep my phone number straight. Which is why he deserves the Ultimate Stalker Retribution: a rendez-vous with the Big Angry Black Woman when he's expecting me instead.

    Sooo, I was just googling this number, because I accidentally gave my number out to a French guy in the street today (I still have trouble saying no, even though I'm in a pretty serious relationship- but mostly I thought he wanted a conversation partner.)

    Anyway, I read your other posts, and we had almost the exact same interaction. Him: Are you from Europe? Me: No... I'm from here... etc. and then he complimented my hair.

    Ughhhh I can't BELIEVE I gave out my number! Why can't I ever say no??? This makes it so much worse! Further, I don't know about you, but he's probably about twice my age. Hopefully, if he decides to stalk me too, it'll at least be in French...

    Same thing happened to me! What a creeper! I met him like two years ago and he's still a wierdo! He just texted me last night and I don't think I've answered any of his texts in over a year. French creep.

  5. This is so weird. I met this guy in Dupont and he said the same thing to me, "You look European," and he said he liked my hair.

    It's nice to see I am not the only one.

    I did go out with him once and all he wanted to do was take me to a bar at 1am. He is a creep.

    Do not give your number to this guy, you will get drunken texts at ungodly hours of the night.

  6. It is funny how many responses you can get for posting some creepy guy's number on a blog.

    I guess I fall into the same category though, recieved late night texts from this number, and I cannot remember who it was from, but now I do.

    Met him last winter, I don't know why he still has my number.

    He is the craziest little Frenchman I have ever met. Name starts with an "N" ends with an "ori."

    He is kinda pathetic, he has to be 40 and he is still trying to hit on girls in their 20s in bars. That's how he met me, unfortunately....

  7. Wow. I am reading this because I just got a call and voicemail from this number...SUCH a creep. I love that you posted his number, so girls realize not to call him back. I hope the calls stop.

  8. This dude gets around. I believe his name is Noor and that he is Moroccan not French (lots of Moroccans speak French). I met him at Clyde's in Gallery Place in Jan 2009 and he told be he worked a Buck's up in Chevy Chase. Just got a random txt from him although I thought I'd blocked the number. What a freak!

  9. OMG! I can't believe I'm reading this. I just got a text from Nori too. Had no idea who it was so googled it and this blog came up. HA! Totally creeeeppy. I met him the summer of 2008 while I was living in DC. WTF.

  11. I had no idea that an entire blog post would be dedicated to the "French guy" when I Googled his number. What's creepy is that his approach hasn't changed in years...

    I was at Front Page in Dupont on a Thursday when I saw him creepily hanging around me and my friend. When my friend left, I walked up to the Circle to read a book. He randomly walked up to me about 15 minutes later and said that I looked "so European and French." He asked for my number (and stupidly, I gave it to him). That night I got a text saying that I was "so nice, fun and pretty" and that he wanted to hang out soon. I never responded to Nori's text, or any of the others that he's sent me since.

    Sadly, this guy is still trolling around DC and bothering young women. Beware!

  16. I will now never accept going out for drinks wihtout first googling the number, this is amazing (and luckily I did read this before ever seeing him again). I'm really curious as to how he saves all these girls' numbers in his phone. "European girl #56"?
