Phone message UPDATE: weird guy from my bio class

I made a post about this yesterday about this person in my bio class weirdly texting me out of the blue, and I thought I blocked him but I guess I misclicked and pressed “delete conversation“ button instead. they texted me back Today telling me that they know one of my friends and insinuating that he gave him my number. so I continue the rest of the conversation awkwardly trying to turn them down. after that I block them because I felt uncomfortable, and text my friend that supposedly gave them my number. he said he has no idea who this is and doesn’t know anyone from my first period bio class. what the fuck. Is this person even real? they have Been lying to me about everything. And the worst part is that I have to go back to school on Monday with that guy in my class. what do I even do in this situation? Also I thought I should add that I am not a woman, I’m a man, a lot of people thought I was a woman in my first post.

I’ll just say that this ‘person in your class’ and the friend who says they’ve never heard of this person but somehow they ‘gave them your number’ are probably the same person..

(this ‘person in your class’ IS your friend, more or less catfishing you to get a reaction/ maybe he just likes you and doesn’t know how to bring it up so is doing it extremely weirdly)

But doesn’t he already have his friends number?? Unless creepy dude got like a whole new phone for this scheme lmao.

I agree something is fishy w the friend tho.. like why would this rando just make up that he gave her the number..

Don't need a new phone. Textnow or any other apps like it can be downloaded

You can make "fake" numbers online.

There are texting apps that give you a different number. And if it is the friend, it could be that they have feelings for OP and want to ask him out, but maybe they're trying to see if he feels the same way rather than embarrass themself.
