Have you ever been stalked?
I thought I was rid of mine. I haven’t seen him since New Year’s. Yet last night, there he was again. He saw me, came up and tapped my shoulder. When I turned around he just turned and walked off. Then he watched me from a distance of about 20 feet away for the rest of the night. I would go to a different club/bar, and he would follow. He didn’t attempt contact other than to tap my shoulder and make it known he was there. It got to restraining order scary about 6 months ago. I’m afraid it’s going to start again. To have someone text you sweet dreams the minute you turn your lights off, good morning within minutes of turning them on is scary. To listen to the cops tell you they can’t do much for you until he physically hurts you is scary. To be told he has a violent record and no known address, no way to find him, is scary. You just wait and watch to see if he shows up again. Outside of your house. At restaurants. When you are on dates. When you are out with your friends.
What do stalkers think? What purpose do they have? Why do they become fixated on someone?
It’s hard for me to understand what might be going on in their heads.
Have you ever been stalked? How did it end?
