Armenian dating chase

I have heard of a traditional “chase” in Armenian dating, when a man will “follow” a woman. How long does this tend to last if the girl isn’t interested or has a boyfriend? How does this work what if there was talking involved but from an American who tried to friend zone someone, and it gave mixed messages?

Probably nothing to worry about…just a guy thinking he’s doing his best to get what he wants…if it’s just the occasional drive by…he’ll likely go away.

Okay. That’s what me and my boyfriend thought. You talking about this kidnapping thing had me on the verge of throwing up. Are You in Armenia? Do you see this kind of persistence often?

I will say, i talked to him A LOT. And not that I’m trying to “blame” myself…but people do form attachments, so I’m trying to remember that also. But the whole time I told him I have a boyfriend etc, but that er could be friends. Maybe in Armenia a man and woman being “friends” is code for “affair”?

And thank you for having this conversation. It’s been on and off for a while now. But seeing him drive up my street freaked me out.
