You see, this is more complicated than it seems, because as relationship therapist Aimee Hartstein said, women have been “socialised to be pleasing and deferential to men”, which is why we always have a harder time telling people 'no' and feeling like we don’t want to upset them.
Therefore, to make it easier for you guys, here are some signs that will tell you when it is finally time to leave that creepy person from Market Shaker on read.
2. If they begin to spam you with the previous literal harassment to the point where it becomes quite draining.
3. When they aren't getting the hint and so ghosting is the only option (as ‘no’ clearly isn’t one for them.)
4. Lastly and especially, if they become quite aggressive towards your rejection and are very disrespectful and rude with their messages.
However, just remember that these are a few basic guidelines when handling these situations. The most important thing is to keep yourself safe, and never to feel like you owe any creepy people anything. If ghosting someone will make you feel comfortable, then it is the best decision to make and it is always warranted. I know that sometimes it is hard, but it is necessary, so do not feel bad for it!
