Male Bonding2

For those who like to explore the concept and dynamics of male bonding. Men are socialized in different ways in different societies, and so many men would like to have close male friendships, yet after spending time establishing a career, primary relationship and live in general, find themselves without close male friends. Many of us want male friends with whom we can share openly without...

....Has been booted from the group, and I'm reporting him to TN administration. I was hoping that working with him would help, as I want to try to be fair to everyone, but he just didn't get it. I'm sorry for the frustration, trust violations and public embarrassment that he has caused anyone and everyone in this group. Again, thank you to those of you who brought him and his behavior to my attention. I hope this group can get back to being a non-judgmental, safe space for sharing, challenging and supporting each other as men.

thanks the guy came across as desperate for attention and friends with little or no social skills.
I too think he is back with a new profile and already posting on other groups.
It is sad but the bit of interaction i had with him was not what I look for on a nudist site or any other for that matter

That's who I guessed that was, judging from the type of just off-balance "question."

it's amazing the number of people still adding him to their buddy lists... or keeping him on after being warned (and directed to pages like this with multiple members discussing the problems)...

i'm disappointed he's already up to 68 friends using his 'ANudistFriend' moniker... some of whom are the same people who were warned about him a week or more ago... some people will never learn, or else feel too sorry for others and forget their own safety and peace of mind. when he was kicked off here under the 'AZCoolDude' name, he had 81 friends. is it worth warning people with personal messages a 2nd time?

Please flag his profile and mark harassment if he is harassing you using his new name. TN can't do anything just because people are talking about it in this group They need harassment reports in order to take action.
I hope someone takes it to the police if he goes too far. But, then again, I hope it doesn't get that bad in the first place.

Unfortunately he keeps getting a new profile name. Just a letter or number different. I have been harassed by him 4 different times. He also has a profile on the dating site POF.com I am on there and he asked if we could date and move in soon after.....um. wow.

maybe i sound meen, but i think its a waste of time.[/quotei definitely didn't/don't think you sound mean, but i did decide at that time that it was worth it, to me, to contact all 75 of his new 'friends' (in one week?!?) and let them know what was up. most were still in that 'oh my gosh, thanks so much, i'll boot him now' camp, but there was about a dozen who still stick to the 'well he's never been like that with me and i just can't imagine' side, no matter how much evidence they were presented with. those people are stuck with their own choices. very shortly after that, he contacted me directly, as if i was some new person who didn't know about him at all, and that's when things really heated up. he tried friending me with a message attached that had a lot of superfluous compliments and skeezy sounding situations. i wrote him back saying there's no F-ing way, i'm fully aware of who he is and what he's capable of, i've already warned all of his friends on here and on TS, and i really hope he gets the mental health help he so obviously and desperately needs. i should have blocked him then and there myself, but didn't. his response back was "I am so glad I can irritate you and make you so angry that I have more control of your emotions than u do and that you go to such efforts to bad mouth me. I deleted my account and regardless of what u think people genuinely like me. If you are such a private eye why haven't you found my other accounts. I have tons of friends and they obviously disagree with you. I am glad that you are so consumed with me that you have to post all about me. And that your efforts are in vain." so he's clearly getting some sort of sick joy from this. he then blocked me so i can't see his profile. but at some point in the last 2 days unblocked me just long enough to send me another friend request, and then blocked me again. this is obviously a fun game for him, and i'm no longer playing. i can only warn people so many times before it becomes asisyphean/quixotic task. anyway, his real name is david collins, he's on multiple sites as a CFO in the phoenix area. enter at your own risk...

That's scary in itself - if he really is a CFO, someone is trusting this looney bird with their finances!
