The lady went on a coffee date with a suitor she matched with on the app. Immediately after she walked into the coffee shop, she realised that he was not what she had ordered.

Out of politeness, she went through with the date, but she was irked by her date’s clinginess. He kept on holding her hand every time, and she would pull it back.

Sandi then explained to him that she had plans for later that evening and that they needed to wrap up soon. The chap asked to be a part of those plans, but the lady declined since it was a family event. He then explained that he would be going to Camps Bay to hang out with his celebrity friends.

The pair parted ways, but Sandi noticed that the date tried to get hold of her. She then reached her home and got endless calls from him trying to see her again. She blocked his number, but the guy had a backup.

He called Sandi using numerous different numbers, and she blocked each one of them. He then sent multiple messages, but then Sandi decided to make things clear and said:

“Thank you for lunch yesterday, but this is not going to go anywhere. So thank you very much for meeting with me. I hope you meet someone who is as intense as you are because you deserve that.”

The guy missed the message and kept sending messages. He begged not to be blocked and said:

“You don’t have to worry about me because, in all honesty, I am not interested in you in that way. I am not here for Black or for Coloured women. I am on here because I want a White woman.”
