I havent agreed to do anything with him or ever told him I'm even interested in him. He is getting annoying. The minute he sees me online he messages me and if I don't respond right away he calls me. I have asked him go quit calling me and to cut back on the messages. He doesnt seem to listen well. He asked many questions about my ex boyfriend which I have asked him to quot bringing him up. He seems like hes obsessed. How can I tell him to just leave me alone? I'm just interested in a casual conversation once in awhile

Why haven’t you blocked him.
He DOESNT want an occasional chat. He wants to chat EVERYTIME he sees your name. You have even described him as obsessed. Isn’t that time to cut the contact? You’re clearly on different wavelengths.

Seriously? You don't realize this is some sort of a scam? He is getting angry because you are not allowing him to control you and he feels you might slip away.
Are you really so desperate for conversation that you need to keep contact with this guy?
Block him and move on with your life. And be more careful who you accept as a friend in future.

If you don't know how to protect yourself on social media; you should close your account altogether.
Why would you maintain contact with someone you've labeled as obsessed and won't leave you alone when you ask him to? You don't want any kind of conversation with a nutcase like that!
Casual or otherwise!
If you don't know how to unfriend someone, ask a teenager.

OP, just block him.
BLOCK, unfriend him on Facebook and up your security levels on Facebook so he can't find you without being your ACTUAL friend.
Find someone who doesn't have an agenda to occasionally chat with, this guy could be a scammer, or just a time waster.
Don't you know how to unfriend someone?
He is looking for a GF or a sugarmomma... And you don't want either so just cut him loose.

So, if I were you, I'd just block the guy. No further explanations. He's definitely not able to leave you alone. And it will only get worse over time. So,just block him.
