Dear Anyone,
I'm sorry if this problem is a bit long, but here I go:
A couple of days ago, a boy added me to his friends list on MSN. I'm 14 years old. He told me he was 22 years old, and that he was not the flirty type and claimed to be "an innocent boy."
I asked him where he got my address and he wouldn't tell me. He said it didn't matter and that he believed in "true friendship" and if I "trusted" him. I signed out.
The next day, he messaged me again and after asking him a million times where he got my address, he told me he got it from my friend, "K". He said that "K" had told him I was a nice girl, and given him my screen name.
He claimed to be a cousin of "K", but when I asked him what "K"'s niece's name was, he quickly said that he was a second cousin and did not know. He did not know which school "K" went to either, and furthermore, changed his story and told me he was 17, not 22. However, he knew "K"'s last name.

Last night he bugged me for over an hour asking me if I accepted him as a friend or not. Then he got offline and came back after 20 minutes, saying he had been waiting for me to reply all that time!
I don't know what to believe anymore! I can't talk to "K" because we I'm not in the school or the country in which she is anymore! I don't know if this boy is telling the truth. I don't know how such a close friend could give my screen name away I like that, if she did indeed give it away.
Why is this guy so persistent?? He even told me I had a "beautiful soul." What should I do??
Worried and Confused

I blocked him and e-mailed "K" asking her if she gave this guy my address! Don't worry, I didn't give him any personal info!

I e-mailed "K." She's never heard of him. Who is this guy??? How did he get my friend's info???

Ignore him first off, no 22 year old has any business chatting with a 14 year old online. There are a lot of perverts and molesters out there that just "itch" for a chance to get ahold of someone underage. America's Most Wanted did a whole show on a sting of these types. Tell your parents, and if nned be let them call the authorities.
First off, and very important, IGNORE HIM. Don't feed him anymore with replies.

Well he sounds like a creep. I would block him, and if that doesn't stop it you should think about changing your s/n. It might just be some boys at school messing with you. Then again there are alot of weirdos out there. So if you feel the need to do more you should report him to msn, your parents, or even the police.

Get the guys phone number, then take it to your parents and the police. Then learnthe lesson, the internet is infested with pedifiles, who are very smooth talkers, trying to confuse girls and boys like you. You need to limit your friends list to people you actually KNOW. DO NOT give this creep any personal information, he should not know where you live or go to school...not even the town you live in.

why would someone 22 years old be interested in a 14 year old? sounds to me he is a predator and a potential child molester. he cant mean you any good unless he has some mental problem and dont know the difference that he is an adult and you are a child

Being an older women to you (im 23),i advice you to be alert in this people, because first of all, you didnt know him at all, you dont know where he came from, where he gets your email add and other things, you didnt sure also if he tells the truth to you.Maybe he likes you, one of your schoolmates or neighbors, wanting to know you better.But both of us didnt know the true identity of this person.Alot of bad guys is here in the net, having the purpose to get the attention of young girls like you (also boys), and if you bite his bait then everything else could be happened..If you befriend him, sooner or late he will invite you to see each other in personal, which is very dangerous, because he might have bad intentions to you and you might get in trouble that you didnt expected..A lot of people becomes victims of these people..So beware and take care of yourself. I just hope he's not like that.So to be safe, dont entertain him in anyway..IF he really persists, he could do other ways that could show his trueself (but dont give your number to him or address ok), and if you know him at all, then it is not alarming now to you.Just unmind him, if he really likes you he could do alot of ways that is more safe for you.Ok?Hope i help you somehow,thats all.

block him as a friend. seriously, its not safe to continue this. he could be dangerous, especially if you can already tell he is lying. just either block him, or stop using that screenname altogether and get a new one. you are too young for someone that old to be messing with. even if he were only 17, its just too weird.
don't give him any sympathy, disconnect all contact.
talk to your parents if you feel your safety is compromised.

He is not a boy--he is 22 years old. You should only talk to people you know.

Well, first of all if you do not know who this guys is then just don't pay attention to his emails or text messaging. Don't get involve in something that you do not know about, or not to sound rude but to stay out of HIS business. He doesn't need to know you, there are plenty of other people in this world that he can choose. So, my answer is just to ignore him.

Tell your parents about this guy immediately,and have them contact your local Police Department .This guy is dangerous.Where he got your information is even more disconcerting.You could be in serious danger ,don't take the chance.

Report his e-mail address. He is causing you to be stressful. Not good. Will affect how secure you feel and your studies.
