    What a sicko ...
    Exactly what Little said! Call the police, NOW! That's just way too sick.

      Same advice - call the police.

      I think there is a BIG difference between someone who asks for something weird / disgusting, but will take "no" for an answer, and someone who doesn't seem to want to accept a "no". The first may be creepy, but people are entitled to their own likes / dislikes / fetishes as long as they don't try to force them on someone. The second is a real threat .

        Tried to post on this earlier and it kept telling me I needed to make a longer post...
        Agree with Little, report him to the police and to the web site.

            The police wasn't much help. This man lives in another state, so the cop said "He's not going to take a cop from another state seriously." All what I was told was to change my number, which I don't want to go through again (I had a similar situation last year). I don't like the idea of always changing my number everytime some loser wants to be annoying. My cell phone company can't block him, b/c he's just one person (I have sprint?)

            I'm just going to ignore him, and not waste my time listening to his messages. He even said, "I'm doing this to annoy you." Well, he's not going to get a response. I have a feeling he will give up eventually.

            I reported him to the website, but it looks like he deleted his profile.

              What on earth? Call the cops from his state! Insist that they send him a warning of some sort. He's threatened to stalk and sexually assault you, but yet the police don't take him seriously?
              My exact words to the cop probably would have been "Yeah, that's great, but you're an idiot. Get your supervisor on the phone."

                The cop also told me "You should stop getting yourself into these situations" when I told him how I had something similar happen last year, which is why I don't want to keep changing my number everytime this happens.

                I don't know what town he lives in though. So, who would I call?

                  Google his number. It should give you a city and state. It may not be accurate if he moved and kept his number, but it will give you something to go by ... maybe the police there know him, whether he has a record, etc.
                  And call back that police station and give that cop a piece of your mind. Just because you're female and trying to find your other half doesn't mean that you are opening yourself up to harassment. Definitely talk to a supervisor! Misogynistic pieces of you-know-what do not belong in law enforcement.

                    Unfortunately the police don't always act the way they should. Going to a police supervisor is the "right" thing to do, but might cause you more trouble - if the police take a dislike to you then can cause all sorts of problems.

                      I totally agree with Rcoreyus on this one. Im from the UK - so obviously Im not entirely sure the differences between UK cops and US cops (they are probably a whole lot better then ours! ha!). I cant really imagine calling the police about one text message is going to make them do that much about it. Yeah, i totally understand why you would want to go to the police about it of course - but unless the sleeze bag keeps on sending you messages, i really doubt there is that much the police are going to do. They may see it (as UK cops certainly do) as - do we chase up a rogue text message, or deal with a crime thats happening 'in the flesh'. Its almost as if your going to have to wait for the text messages to get totally out of hand! which i dont really find fair in the slightest.

                      Im so sorry that you didnt get help from the police. That gives me no confidence with them in the slightest.
