When @lisahtherealtor chose not to reply for the rest of the day, the Turkish man continued to reach out. Later, he sent a message with just a question mark, followed by a voice note where he expressed his frustration about being ignored.
In the voice note, the man said:
“I am typing to you, and you are not saying anything. We cannot have a relationship like that. If you don’t love me, you can tell me. I don’t want to waste time. I am writing to you, but you don’t write for two day or three days. You are not one person in this life.”
He went on to explain that he found her attractive and initially believed they could build something together. However, he stressed that a lack of communication would make that impossible.
“If you don’t want me, tell me. And if you want to lose me too, you can do that this easily,” he added, making it clear that he would not keep chasing her.
@lisahtherealtor’s post has drawn mixed reactions online since it was published on 6 August 2025, with some people sympathising with the man’s honesty while others suggested he came across as too intense too soon. @lisahtherealtor also defended herself after sharing the WhatsApp text by saying the following in the comments.
"To defend myself, he invited me to have coffee at 11:30 pm at Starbucks the previous day."
