There’s a guy I met two years ago and more recently in the past 2 weeks he’s been balling over everything to me. It’s nothing about him but more so about me. He’s always “you have no idea how much I love you” or “I love you so much” blah blah blah and it’s been getting extremely annoying. I’ve made it clear to him for years about us just being friends and he says he knows but he says he loves me probably 10 times a day. But he acts like he’s saying it as a friend but friends don’t really do that?

I’ve had multiple friends who have never cried over me let alone told me they loved me everyday. We’ve never been anything more than a friend either and I have no interest in him like that mostly because he’s older than me and I’m not into older guys. He’s very aware. However I get the feeling he’s obsessing over me. He came over a while back and I seen I was on his Lock Screen and main screen on his phone. I blew it off because he always tells me how good of a friend I am. He sent me a screenshot of his screen a couple days ago and I’m still on his screen. It’s really starting to bug me. He always sends me voice messages or just messages that “we need eachother” or “he needs me” and just straight up cries. I spent new years with him and he ended up giving me a ring he said it’s just a small reminder of him but that morning when I woke up he started saying vowels to me as if we were getting married. I didn’t know what to say to him so I just let it slide and when I got home took the ring off.

Maybe I’m just a bad friend but hearing him cry about me makes me want to tell him to stfu. I’m just sick and tired of hearing it. Of course this wouldn’t be so much of a bad thing if me and dude was dating but the fact it’s not like that at all is just kinda 🥴 cringe. I don’t know if something in his head isn’t clicking about us just being friends and nothing more or what but I’m so close to just ditching on him because I mean who is this invested into their friend??? Really.
