Social Media Weirdness
What could it possibly mean when someone changes their Tumblr (or other social media) user name every single day, or nearly every day?
This guy keeps messaging me there, he is apparently from Australia and tells me he's in his late teens but has the body of a baby due to some pituitary gland abnormality. He started off sending me an "Ask" to my Classic Doctor Who blog, it was totally off-topic so I didn't post it there and just sent him a gentle message back letting him know. He apologized saying he's had a hard time of it lately, told me about his condition and then got into all these sob stories about his sister and her friends harassing him, his mom not wanting to be bothered, they dressed him up in baby clothes and put him in a baby sized wedding dress to have a fake wedding with a toddler... I'd say things like "I'm sorry to hear that, that's terrible" and he wouldn't even acknowledge it, he'd just keep repeating over and over what they'd done to him.
It's now getting even weirder, he's telling me constantly "I love you" and "I wish you could look after me in my baby condition." Um.... yeah.
I'm even wondering if he's just playing me. I asked him at one point that if he's the size of a baby, how could he post on social media on a phone. He told me he's like the guy who played Mini Me in the Austin Powers movies, where he had mini-sized gadgets. I admit I know pretty much nothing about stuff like that. Do such things exist (pardon my ignorance, honestly)?
Anyway to connect this to my subject heading, the other thing that raises my eyebrows is that he changes his user name and profile picture every single day. The only way I know it's him is due to the way he keeps repeating all that stuff. He also has hardly any posts in his blog, maybe two random ones that are related to the Doctor Who fandom. It's just kind of odd. On one hand, if he is legit I feel bad for him but he needs someone else to talk to besides me. I have no idea what to say when he tells me all this. But on the other hand I think it's possible I'm being played. It's all pretty weird, I think I might just block him.
