    Hej guys and gals

    My girlfriend is being "stalked" on sms and facebook by this guy from her old school. He keeps writing her messages, and when she doesn't answer, he asks her why she is not answering. After getting no response from her on texts, he has been writing to her on facebook. Obviously he cannot understand the word "No", so what can I do about this? I have his e-mail and I was thinking of posting it on 4chan and I might submit him to some male-male websites. Have you got any other decent ideas?
    I have no interest in this involving into a huge fight between me and him, but I just want to pull a prank on him, and let him know that it is stupid to annoy a girl with a geeky boyfriend :D

    Sign him up to newsletters and advert mailing lists, with both his phone number and e-mail address, find as many as you can :).

    ...or you could just ignore him. He will go away after a while.

    +1 True that, if someone is ignored they will eventually give up, though expect it to get worse before it gets better (being ignored will make him angry and cause him to try harder until he gives in).

    Sign him up for huge numbers of porn site's and dirty texts to his phone, plus loads of random junk mail.

    I had a text stalker for a while, just ignore completely, and they go away eventually.

    Also, phone your network operator (from the gf's phone) and see if you can get his number put on a blacklist so none of his messages reach your gf's phone, if the phone doesn't have the blacklist feature built in itself.

    I'm fairly sure you used to be able to sign people up to get free nappies (diapers to you Americans) from the nappy companies (Huggies, Pampers etc.), but I think they've stopped that now. If he lives with his parents, sending him nappies through the post could be fun :)

    If you do have his address, you could always post him embarrassing stuff in the mail. The stuff doesn't have to exist, just the labeling on the envelope. I'm thinking a brightly colored 'TINY CONDOMS' sticker could raise enough awkward questions :D

    With regard to SMS, her network can block his number. With regard to facebook etc. you can ignore people who keep doing things like that.

    Just ignore him, do the above and as long as he never sees her in public it'll all be ok. My ex used to have a similar problem with someone she used to work with. We did the above and he soon stopped.

    A naughty ad on craigslist as him looking for a little manly love with his phone #,e-mail and facebook should keep him busy for awhile.

    Just ignore him, don't answer the messages and block him on FB if your girlfriend is comfortable with that. As boring as it sounds, you don't want to give him more reasons to dislike you, especially not if he turns out to be one of the really weird ones.

    Thanks for the sound ideas people. I have discussed it with her, and we are probably gonna get her phone provider to blacklist his number and use the ban feature on facebook.

    Docs dropping on 4chan doesn't work.

    Just sign him up to spam sites and male-male dating websites like you said.

    While the other options would be fun, this is the best way to do it.

    My girlfriend just did this to dodge contact from people bothering her, although some of them know our address and could just be a nuisance that way.

    If they do, we'll escalate those to the police.

    The reason for not doing any of the childish options is that if the police then become involved, its better if you look whiter than white :thumb:

    Isn't this what privacy options are for?

    Block him on facebook and get your network to block his number?

    Ignore.

    If it gets worse, get the police involved.

    If you start signing him up to a bunch of ****, chances are high that he'd have the ol' Bill on his side - Not something you want to offer him, if he's a genuine stalker.

    So you haven't told him to **** off or you'll bury his phone into his small intestine? Worked for me.

    Well, I thought of that and then rejected the thought. It would be stupid to kick some lonely kids ass..

    He's consistently harassing and annoying your girlfriend. He'll probably **** off if you make it obvious that he's not welcome. It's bound to be more effective than passiveagressively ignoring him.
