Today, I received a lemon in a box in the mail. I didn't know from who it was, nor how he or she knows my address. There was a note on it: "When life gives you lemons, date me." FML
YayItsYasmine tells us more.
Hey! I got another lemon in a box today, with the same note. But this time, the "Date me" was in caps and there was drawn a smiley on the lemon. I'm kinda getting creeped out, and i still haven't figured out who made it.

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.

Honestly, the cops aren't going to do much.You don't know who it is, they have nothing to go off of.Theyre not going to stake your house out because someone has sent you two lemons & said 'date me'.I think its very cute & innovative & if the person is serious then they'll reveal themselves.You could leave a note where you find the lemons giving an answer.The solution may be just that simple.

sadly this is correct cops won't do jack shit until your in actual danger hell my stalker told me he was going to rape me and kill me and kill anyone he had to get to me and the cops called the guy I suspected it to be and asked if it was him he obviously denied it and that was the end of that no investigation nothing though surprisingly the phone calls stopped so clearly it was him or someone he knows

And why is that such a terrible thing ?!?

Because that is stalker behavior.

It may seem cute and innocent now, but stalker behavior progresses, and it'll get worse.

Too bad they didn't give you a lime, then you could do tequlia shots.

I instantly think of Will Sasso whenever lemons are mentioned.

OP, if your mailbox is close to the door or you have a window that overlooks it, get a camera and start recording. The other commenters are right that there's not a lot the cops can do without more information, but if they have a solid shot of his face, you'll be better off. The less reasonable but more satisfying option is to wait until the next time your stalker shows up, then throw the lemons at him.

She'll record the mail carrier dropping the package off, doesn't mean the stalker is putting them directly in mailbox.... Well unless its creepy mail man

Hasn't been addressed (ha!), but I assumed the obvious lack of return address indicated that the stalker was doing his own delivery, especially since the post office doesn't typically have to deliver perishables outside of Christmas season.

I don't know why everyone considers this to be such a threatening gesture. It sounds like just a klutzy wannabe suitor, not a stalker. It wasn't menacing and provided they reveal themselves in the next time or two, what's the big deal? Someone took the time to express that they like you in a clever way. The time-honored and quaint idea of a secret admirer suddenly has to be viewed as a psychopath? Why?

Key word here is "quaint." Back before you could find out anything about anyone with just a few keystrokes, most people who knew you or knew of you lived within a few miles of you. Figuring our who your secret admirer was would be fairly simple and probably at least a little fun. Now, thanks to the Internet, your stalker could be any rando with questionable motives. I'm in Camp Creepy on this one.

Finally solved it though! My classmate had a bet with his friend. It was creepy, but i'm happy that it's not a stalker.

Well, are you going out with him? ;)

Is he really into you or was he just doing it for the bet?

I would've punched said classmate.
