Is there a word or collocation for an unwanted person? [closed]
I'm looking for a word or collocation we use in British English when we want to refer to someone who's interested in you, attracted to you, but whose advances at you are not welcome. Thank you! :)
Solution 1:
An unwelcome admirer/suitor:
- someone whose personal requests and attentions (regarding a possible casual or stable relationship) are not appreciated.
Solution 2:
"Stalker" would be my first response but perhaps that's too harsh since there's a more dangerous connotation to that word. Some less harsh possibilities:
- bothersome admirer
- nonreciprocal crush
- non-fancied
- unfancy
