Don't be uncomfortable, just go for coffee, bring your wife, and don't pretend that the dude isn't creepy cause he is, it's in your title! Don't send any mixed messages, this guy has already built your lifelong friendship in his mind. 

show up to coffee with a court-appointed supervisor 

my 2 cents it's probably assburgers 

You have to live near this dude, be friendly but firm. 

Jesus, dudes, maybe he doesn't want to go to the play alone.

Maybe he's German, too, and he thought it was cool to meet another German person.

Shrug. If this guy really does creep you out then I'm
I'm not gonna ask you to be friends with him just for
his sake, but I'm not sure if automatically assuming that the
dude is off his rocker is the best way to keep things
genial, much less strive for what most people refer to as
"human decency."

Then again he knows his name is Scott and that's,
like, way too far. Who knows what he's going to do
with that info? He could try to look up where you
live or something! 

why is it ALWAYS autism!?! 

So he'll be receiving.

So he IS gay. 

I love giving handjobs to retarded people. 

I feel the same way as BFTE and that's unusual because I'm a total hermit.
My neighbor waves and I have to think about if I want to wave back or not.

I think it's fairly safe. Just do and see. 

Maybe he's German, too

It's not that he looked up my name. It's that he somehow found I'm german. My last name isn't Gerwertzschlict. It's not obvious without some work.

He's blogging about it right now!

Posted - November 2nd

Hey guys,

You know how I moved into that new apartment complex, and I told you about that
random guy that keeps walking around the hallways.
Well today I decided to weird him out.
I sent him this letter inviting him to my sons play (yeah I don't have a son)
called  "Once upon a Mattress".
If that wasn't enough, I then invited him to coffee, for a run, for a visit to
the sauna and a for a ride in my convertable.

Your move Mr Random Corridor Walker.

 

Seriously, I get this name shit a lot.
People are always asking me if I am Russian or what nationality my name is and wanting to talk about it. Most of the time they offer useful information or neat insights.

He's probably german as well.
Is you lastname a common word in german? 

Scott Scheissentragst 

Yeah, I'd respond with, "My wife and I enjoy getting to know our neighbors a little better. What about coffee on the corner Saturday morning?" I'd say make it kind of far off into the future, like most of the week, and see if he starts bothering you before that appointment. If so - hey, red flag, proceed with more caution.

Don't give him your phone number unless it wouldn't bother you to change your number down the line, and keep the response friendly but not in a personal way ("I really loved your letter, it's so nice of you to reach out to me like that" - bad imo) that a socially retarded desperate foreign dude, or whatever you've decided this guy is, could misconstrue as "he likes me, he really likes me!" and starts carving Scott and Steve BFF forever into both your front doors and changing his fazed tagline to match yours. 

Did you watch this guy while he Googled your name?

Do you know all the info there is on you on the internet, and how to find it?

It'd be one thing if this dude literally did not know of
your existence until he decided to look for some random
guy to stalk using Google, but my guess is that he just
wanted to know some stuff about his new neighbor who
he had a brief convo with and probably revealed a little
more than most people would have.

Maybe the guy did research you exhaustively from the moment
that you talked until he slid the letter under your door, but come
on. Are you that paranoid? Are you that afraid this dude is going
to try something?

He's a person. Treat him like a person, not like some yappy dog that you're afraid might bite you. 

All the guy did was a reverse address look up and then he got your name.
Big deal. 

wait. you're a dude?

call this guy and get a blowjob. now. 

in a convertible 

He's a person. Treat him like a person, not like some yappy dog that you're afraid might bite you.

You may misunderstand my position on this so far so let me clear it up.

I'm not afraid of him. I think the letter was weird. I look forward to talking to him. This is making and will make a good story. If it gets over-the-top weird I'll let him know to keep his distance. If not, it'll be nice to know someone in the building. 

A while back I had a girl that went to my school message me out of the blue. I didn't realize until we'd exchanged a bunch of messages that one of the subject lines she used was Ethnicity. She never brought it up directly but I suspect that she was an Aryan. Bet it's the same thing we have going on here. Damn Aryans. 

In all reality this story is going to end :

"He's a bit different, but overall a nice guy." 

"He was a quiet guy. Kept mostly to himself" 

...they are awfully hung up on bloodlines even if you look white 

"He followed my wife to work today to get her carrot cake recipe because he smelled it in the hallway."

Now that would be funny 

The Krauts/Aryans that is 

I don't think aryans send there kids to very liberal private schools though.

Ok here's the list of my hypotheses:

1. He's gay and wants me. All bad.
2. He's a nice, socially awkward, but relatively normal guy. I end up talking to him occasionally and occasionally getting more socially awkward letters, but everything is mostly ok.
3. He's a Mormon (there's a mormon church aboug 1/4 mile away). Pretty much all the social awkward stuff above, but now he's really annoying too.
4. He's going to kill me. Which reminds me. If I don't post a follow up in this thread. I'm probably dead.

You forgot my hypothesis that he's a neo-Nazi and wants you to join his neo-Nazi gang because of your ancestry. 

Ok I'll update the list of hypotheses according to this thread:

1. He's gay and wants me. All bad.
2. He's a nice, socially awkward, but relatively normal guy. I end up talking to him occasionally and occasionally getting more socially awkward letters, but everything is mostly ok.
3. He's a Mormon (there's a mormon church about 1/4 mile away). Pretty much all the social awkward stuff above, but now he's really annoying too.
4. He's going to kill me. Which reminds me. If I don't post a follow up in this thread. I'm probably dead.
5. Neo-nazi that wants me to join because I'm german.
6. He wants to bang my wife/have a threesome. 

I'm not afraid of him. I think the letter was weird. I look forward to talking to him. This is making and will make a good story. If it gets over-the-top weird I'll let him know to keep his distance. If not, it'll be nice to know someone in the building.

That was more just a general guideline than anything
specific to you or this dude, but that's good to hear.

I hope he doesn't try to touch your penis when you're not looking. 

Have you ever seen "Audition"? 

No, can you give me a synopsis? 

okay cool I'm pleased now.

just push him against the wall in the hallway and deep kiss him

out creep the creep

this is also good advice 

Have you ever mentioned a sauna to a dude right after you meet him?

I mean, that's such a second or third date topic. 

add, he is a mobster and his son is really a victim of child smuggling and wants to film the both of you. 

organ seller 

He's a slavetrader and wants to sell you for beaucoup bucks. 

hes doing that hand thing at you through the walls while you sleep
EVER NIGHT 

I'll bet this guy looks and sounds like Peter Lorre, right? Because that's the picture I get in my mind from all this. Peter Lorre.

Oh, if that's the case then you are going to need to see M immediately.

I wouldn't find it especially odd. I'd just assume Northern Europe. Well, probably Finland. Hell, public
baths are still quite common in parts of the world. 

If only there was a way to know if this guy is normal or not [18+].

HA! 

so wait, i think i missed something. how did we rule out that he was mormon? 

Mormons don't like saunas or caffeine. 

i hope you dont get freaked out by what fazers are posting here. I hope you do at least meet for coffee and get to know him a little. and take his pic somehow...and post it...and junk 

mormons have no problem with caffeine. calvinists can't have caffeine. mormons don't drink coffee
due to the Words of Wisdom advising against "warm drinks", but caffeine itself is not strictly
prohibited, nor are cola drinks.

true, there is some debate amongst the elders, but in so far as i know, caffeine is still allowable. so,
his being a latter-day saint may not yet be off the board. besides, i know quite a few mormons that
are normal, well adjusted people. 

http://knol.google.com/k/-/-/2btetwad2hs37/zg6z2l/marty.jpg

is what I picture. 

chapel, but mormons can drink hot chocolate, which is clearly a "warm drink".

I actually posted this question earlier..

Hot Chocolate: Warm + no caffeine = okay
Coke: Cold + caffeine = okay
Coffee: Warm + caffeine = not okay

So confused.
