ORIGINAL: ordinary I keep getting emails like this. The most recent was someone asking if I knew how to take blood pressure and if I owned a BP cuff. I said yes, no, and why do you ask and all I got was 'I'll explain when we talk'. I expect my questions to be answered just as validly as I answer his, or yours, or theirs. My questions are just as important to me, and I wouldn't ask if I didn't want to know. It irritates me that some guys think they can just write me off like that for a 'later date'. I have a feeling this guy wants to 'back me into a corner' so to speak by getting my yahoo information so he has more personal info on me. It's been my experience that this is what guys are aiming to do when they approach me like this. After I give them my yahoo info, they start demanding things and I just ignore them. So how would you deal with this? It's irritating, and I want to tell the jerk that it's irritating, but it'd probably fall on deaf ears. Would you just block people like this? Send a 'polite' response? Rip em a new one? And how can I avoid this kind of thing in the future? I would just be as firm and resolute are you are in your post. Tell the guy that the BP cuff appears to be a medical issue and you want "full disclosure" before enlisting or talking any further with him. Be firm and polite. If they ignore your request for full disclosure or are obnoxious, then do what you feel comfortable--either ignore them or block them, etc.
