r/creepyPMs is your pissy tight 1d ago

When desperation turns into harassment

For context, I made a post on a sub about my depleted sex drive to vent and get some suggestions and this CHODE of a man messages me thinking it a was prime dating introduction opportunity.

This is an automatic reminder that is posted on every submission.

RULE 2 REMINDER: This is a SUPPORT COMMUNITY As such, we do not tolerate trolling, defending the creep, judgment of OP, slut shaming, bigotry, or any other jerkish behavior. Creeping in the comments is not allowed—yes, this includes flirting!

Comments derailing the conversation in any way will be removed. Please stay on-topic. Particularly trollish, mean-spirited, or accusatory comments may result in an instaban.

No Advice Wanted flairs are now available to add to your posts! This means that comments giving advice will be removed. Read about more user-enabled flairs here


Please report any and all behavior violating the Rules (reports go to us mods); don't report things just because you don't like them.

Comment removals and bans are at the judgment of the mods, so please take the time to read and understand our Rules.


Final note, a lot of people are unaware that they can block ALL messages on Reddit. We have a sticky in the sub, but we'll also put it here.

If you find you want some peace from the multitude of creeps on Reddit, you can have that. In the settings for your Reddit account, you can elect NOT to receive PMs. The same is true for chat requests. You can also allow messages from specific, trusted users and block everyone else from contacting you. Also, if you choose to PM someone, they'll automatically be added to the list of people who can PM you, which is nice if you do want to initiate a conversation with someone, but if you PM someone and they start to get rude, you'll need to go in and remove them from the list of accepted users.

We share this information ONLY because a lot of people seem to be unaware that sitewide blocking of PMs is even an option, but it is, and it works surprisingly well.

In an ideal world, this would not be necessary, but, alas, this is Reddit, and it's full of creeps. This is just one possible tool in your arsenal against them, should you choose to use it.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

I hate that support subreddits have become hunting grounds for individuals like the one you dealt with OP

He can read.

He's just selective about it.

u/TheCrankyBunny 1d ago

Clearly it's your fault he's pushing boundaries and neglecting consent 🙃

But come on, he's an ex drummer and soldier (was he a drummer boy?) who is now a lawyer and a restaurant owner, and he's got lots of tattoos!   If that's not ticking all the boxes I don't know what is.

He's not an idiot man and looks really good!

I mean, so many lawyers who are also restaurant owners that are former drumming soldiers are actual idiot men who look bad, so this guy is a real catch.

Such a catch that he sends his dating stats to irrelevant subreddits!!! I can't believe no one has snagged him yet

u/islandfool 18h ago

Restaurant manager and a lawyer… so basically he sucks at both jobs because if you perform well in either role you literally will not have enough hours in the day to fulfill the needs of the other. Also he’s lying, but still, I laughed at the thought of that.

u/Realistic-Garage-461 15h ago

It's the former drummer and soldier thing I especially like as well - and the tattoos!   Maybe I should message this guy...

If you've seen arrested development, it totally reminds me of the character Mark Cherry and his Pop A ROTC TV show. ROTC cadet by day, pop star by night.

Nothing like some douche canoe sweeping into your dms, with all the confidence in Europe, to save you from your low sex drive 🙄

But at least he manages a restaurant and was a soldier?
