Youre increasingly seeing someone that swears he/she loves you. They spend all their free time calling obsessively, pledging their love and eventually requesting marriage. On a daily basis, you receive letters, gifts, cards and calls all expressing their love and affection. The person is pushy and doesn't take No - because they say they love you. But you gut feeling says something is wrong...?
Ever have a negative person invade your life, looking back what were some of the clues that could have been helpful if only you knew?

Yes, they latch on like a leech... way too fast and way too soon
A date does not = love
One kiss does not = love
A one night stand does not = love

The 'but'. I never seem to catch on to the 'but' until it's too late.

You know...

"I love you, but..." (fill in with "you need to...", or "you're always so" type stuff).

"I love you even though we have never met." is a pretty good clue.

Clues, clues and clues
In a rush, big stacks of bills, statements like - "you're the only one who >calls, cares, or knows me!"Late night calls from wrong numbers, strange receipts for extra cell phones, toothbrushes hidden in the closet. Oh yea "I love you - lets move in together" right away.

Did this really happen? I missed that part.

I'd say you have already stated many of the red flags. Another would be if you hear a lot of anger or fits being thrown over the phone. I had that happen. Should have listened to my gut that time for sure. Turns out he did have a major anger problem.
