Scrote Lashes Out In Rage When She Doesn't Give Her Phone Number

Yep! Her setting a simple boundary that is perfectly reasonable given safety concerns for women and his belittling, insulting, bullying response says it all. A man with empathy and decency would never invalidate the lived experiences of women and their safety/comfort like this.

Agreed, if you need to give a number use a text now or alternative one that cannot be easily traced back to your info! And if you don't feel comfortable giving any kind of number, trust your instincts. I think this is a good vetting tool to have too - men who want your number right away when the app is more convenient/try to take you off an app are showing dismissiveness toward your safety/comfort, and likely want control over you/want the convenience of being able to reach out to you and access you immediately.

Also some will use this tactic to say/do boundary violating behavior through text messages/socials without having direct evidence of this behavior on the app so it can't be reported as easily.

The way I see it, since this took place on a dating app and then the messages on instagram, this scrote knew she could just ignore his messages and his messages to her would never interrupt her day or interfere with it. But with her phone number he could do a lot more damage because we use our iMessages/phone texts a lot on a daily basis with different people, so she would always be exposed to when he texted her whether she wanted to be or not when she checked her inbox. They want to become a daily part of your routine without putting in much effort, and that's what's so sickening to me. Plus they can stalk you big time afterward. I think the motive for wanting people's phone numbers so quickly on dating apps can sometimes be nefarious from the men's side.

Right!? Everything he said told on himself. Nobody gets that angry at a simple completely understandable boundary and at a complete stranger no less?! It's vindictive scrotes like him that make such a boundary necessary! I absolutely believe he would've stalked her. Aside from using her number to dig up more personal info, these predatory types love having that sense of permanent control. As you noted they know that even if you block them they can use so many ways to get around it when it comes to a phone number, and you'd have to change your number if you really wanted to get away from their stalking.

That's why I get turned off any time I see a man asking for a phone number right away when an app could be sufficient to communicate and they haven't put in any effort or on the other end of the spectrum are coming on very very strong. They just want the convenience of being able to reach you whenever they want when you're not even in a relationship with them, and that's something that doesn't sit right with me.

Ugh that coworker sounds so creepy and of course she dumped him and rightfully so! People like that have scary entitlement issues and are dangerous.

"Thin skinned little taint" - ha love it! This is my new fave label for these types. 🤣

Right? He sounded so pathetic! He's stuttering and grasping at straws in order to desperately "regain control" of the situation. The cherry on top of the cake is the part where he says "Don't even bother replying, I'm not going to read anything you say" this is so he doesn't feel bad about himself if she were to ignore his ranting. Then of course he blocks her before she can and poof! Suddenly instead of feeling embarrassed and pathetic for throwing a tantrum in front of a girl who rejected him and being ignored like the cringe-worthy man-baby he is, he becomes the "powerful one" doing the rejection in his head, and of course he wasn't ignored because he actually asks her not to reply (that way, by ignoring him and doing what's good for her she also technically "obeys" his "wishes"). The whole thing is pure, undiluted cope. He set up his own circus obstacle course to jump through so many hoops at once
