my names emily, i'm 20 years old and i like music.

Correspondence with a Facebook Creep.

Every now and then, it’s not unusual for me to receive a facebook message from a complete stranger. whether it’s someone trying to promote their band or someone confusing me with someone else. but, the most entertaining of unexpected facebook messages are those which come from flirty strangers. don’t get me wrong i don’t normally humour these strangers for as long as i did this one, but there was something about ‘nawaf shangwani’. he had charisma. he intrigued me. 

‘hi shell i add u’ was the first message. my first thought was ‘ah he’s made a simple mistake. he’s confused me with his good friend Shell, i’ll just set him straight.’ i then realised that mr. shangwani was clearly not the sharpest of spellers and therefore had meant to write ‘shall’ and was clearly asking my permission for him to add me. considering we had no mutual friends and didn’t have the faintest idea who he was i replied ‘no, because i don’t know you.’ i wasn’t messing around. nawaf, however, had other ideas. ‘how come u gna no me if u didint add me :)’ he replies. a fair point i have to admit, but not one that entirely agree with. facebook is a place for friends and nawaf is not yet going to be classed as a friend. i replied with the simple statement ‘i don’t know who you are.’ nawaf also had an answer for this ‘u dun knw me i dun knw u i jus mesag u randomly’. as nawaf continued making more obvious points, i became more and more amused. ‘why did you message me if you didn’t know who i am?’ i questioned. ‘cos i lyk ur pic’.

brilliant, a flirter.

i racked my brains for a positive reply to this. after a good ten minutes of thinking i still had nothing. being the slightly impolite person that i am, i could only think of a sarcastic and slightly rude comment. ‘i’ll say thank you because its polite, but i don’t really mean it.’ nasty i know, but it’s the only way you can get rid of them sometimes. or so i thought. 

‘well dun need to say thanks and sorrry if u mind dat i msg u oryt no problem neva gna msg u agian if u dun like well hope we gna know each uva in dis world :) take care bye bye.’

although i wanted rid of nawaf, i found this to be the best message yet. i had to send a reply back just to see if there would be another message just like it! i decided to bring up one of his weaker points, punctuation. ‘punctuation? goodbye.’

‘ur mean.’

it was after this point that me and nawaf spiralled down in to a pit of childishness.

‘yes, i am.’

‘u r.’

‘why are you still here?’

‘i dun knw just like ur picc maaaaaaan dun knw whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy anyways bye u rude girl.’

this was the last message i ever received from nawaf. i feel sorry that we left the conversation on such a bitter note but i suppose it was for the best. i still miss him to this very day.
