    So my partner has been receiving inappropriate flirtatious messages to her phone from a mystery admirer.

    For the past 2 years, he has been sending such messages on and off

    And she still hasn't blocked his number?

    Are you sure that she isn't enjoying his attention?

    Or enjoying you racing around trying to sort it out?

    She's the one getting calls on her phone - why is it down to you to resolve the matter when she could easily do it by blocking his number?

    A suggestion for your partner...

    If she has a reasonable belief that this person obtained her number from a food order, then the problem does become the restaurant's responsibility and she could contact the office of the Information Commissioner to seek a solution.

    Another wind up thread started by allegedly a "newbie".

    As an aside, why do people start a sentence with "so"? Some political pundit was being interviewed on TV the other day, and every response was started with "So".

    In speech, it's usually one of those "give me a few more seconds to think what I'm going to say" things; in written comments, heaven knows.

    So what?

    Thanks to the ones who have offered sensible solutions. Really appreciate it.

    No thanks to the ones not being helpful. Your word snobbery shenanigans won't get you very far.

    Martin will be ashamed for housing a forum for such bigots.

    But that's none of my business. I'm just a "newbie". :coffee:

    It’s entertaining us reading it.
