>the real creeps get angry when you call them creeps

angry enough to make a fandom secret complaining about it?

seriously if somebody tells someone that they're creepy, THEY PROBABLY DID SOMETHING THAT CAME OFF CREEPY TO THEM. the thing for OP to do to prove they're not creepy is apologize and say they didn't mean whatever the BNF thought they did then back off, not make a passive aggressive fandom secret complaining how they "won't give you a chance (implied: that you totes deserve)"

nobody just thinks you're creepy then tells you so for no reason or because "they're people that don't give chances ever"

Angry enough to make a fandom secret? Possibly. Or sad enough, if they're not a creep. Since the secret gives us absolutely no data about which fandom or BNF we're talking about, the one is as likely as the other.

And if you've told someone to go away and they try to come back and apologize for being creepy (when they don't know what they did that was creepy) doesn't that make them creepier? OP appears to have gone away when told to go away, which is my preference when I've asked someone to back off. (And yes, I've been in the position where I had to do that. Not in fandom, but I do work with the public.)

We've only got a minimum of data from the secret, so I suppose we can spin all sorts of possibilities to justify the Cartoon BNF's behavior (or the OP character's for that matter), serious or silly. BNF has stalker! BNF has Mood Swings! OP is wearing BNF's exact same outfit! Whatever...

Wanna write a fanfic about it?

you're the one judging the bnf to be mean and less than classy when you admittedly have no idea whether the bnf was justified or not. i'm making no judgments here other than what the op said which was bnf called them creepy so somebody thought they were creepy

but w/e hf

The Cartoon BNF is mean and less than classy. We don't have any data about the situation that inspired the cartoon. I don't know, and neither do you, whether or not there was more to the story. I'm just taking the Watsonian view instead of the Doylist view and working with the bit of story we've got.
