Oh, momma says humans can't do that. Oh well. We don't know what to tell you then except maybe talk to his parents, they may know better how to deal with him. Momma says you can send her the diabetic socks, she's been needing to get some anyway cause she has edema in her ankle from the accident.Spockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13779479505663599525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108709.post-1149630198889756522006-06-06T14:43:00.000-07:002006-06-06T14:43:00.000-07:00ok, seriously, Peggy's answer was WAY better than ...ok, seriously, Peggy's answer was WAY better than mine, and, well, GiBee's suggestion about the Buddhist colony just made me laugh. And, I know the "spank spank" freaks you out, so don't think I'm being insensitive, but that is really funny. I'm sorry. Ok, so take Peggy's advice.

It did to me when I re-read it... Although I was totally serious about taking his Pastor with you when you talk to him. Don't put yourself in a situation where you find yourself alone ... whether he's mentally challenged or not.<BR/><BR/>See? Always talking before thinking. Or in this case, typing, hitting post, and then thinking.GiBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717697386035335817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108709.post-1149621140825630992006-06-06T12:12:00.001-07:002006-06-06T12:12:00.001-07:00Hey -- How'd he get your address?Hey -- How'd he get your address?GiBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717697386035335817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108709.post-1149621120814844002006-06-06T12:12:00.000-07:002006-06-06T12:12:00.000-07:00Okay... first of all, I must appologize, because I...Okay... first of all, I must appologize, because I am laughing hysterically at how you wrote this... "And he isn't right in the head." Oh my goodness, just re-reading that sends me in a fit of giggles.<BR/><BR/>Okay seriously now ... I totally understand how you feel. Creeped out. So, have you tried talking this over with HIS Pastor-dude? Because something needs to be done immediately ... simply to protect you.<BR/><BR/>If he's not "right in the head" (laughing again, sorry!) then he may totally be under his own distorted view of what's appropriate vs. what's NOT.<BR/><BR/>Including his Pastor might be a way to let him down easily. <BR/><BR/>Or you could mail him back a reply thanking him for all his gifts and wedding proposal, but that you can not accept at this time, because you are going off to a budhist colony, and they won't allow you to get married... plus, you won't be as cute once you shave your head, so he may not find that attractive. Know what I mean?GiBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717697386035335817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108709.post-1149610327071123472006-06-06T09:12:00.000-07:002006-06-06T09:12:00.000-07:00Being mentally challenged he doesn't understand he...Being mentally challenged he doesn't understand he is freaking you out. Before totally turning your back on him which he wouldn't understand after your being friends with him till now, try talking to him. Tell him you really like him like a brother and brother and sisters don't marry. Thank him for the gifts but tell him next time he wants to buy you something to use the money instead to buy a toy for the church nursery or give the money to the church. Tell him that would make you happier than any gift he could buy you. Mentally challenged people don't mean to scare anyone. They are very loving people and just want others to love them. Yes there are a few that are harmful to themselves or others but your friend doesn't sound like that kind. I would try talking to him first and then to his guardian if that doesn't work.Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16467921308987979013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108709.post-1149606969631651352006-06-06T08:16:00.000-07:002006-06-06T08:16:00.000-07:00I would definitely limit ALL contact with this per...I would definitely limit ALL contact with this person. Even if it feels like you're "snubbing" him. Sometimes guys get the wrong idea when single girls are friendly to them, and especially so if they don't have rational thinking skills. Don't accept any more gifts from him. Period. That is probably giving him the wrong idea. You have to be very careful about the attention you give to him even by having a conversation and/or accepting gifts. I might consider having someone close to him go talk to him like Susan said. Apparently ignoring him isn't really working. But, seriously, be careful.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09173872365261806154noreply@blogger.com
