NO thanks.
I try to meet my stalkers in person, not over the internet.:D;)
I where I worked, as soon as a new doctor showed up, you could smell the pheromones in the air. It was rather sad to see them act that way. Most of them ended up being real whack jobs.
THere was a woman who I worked with that found out where my mom worked and went to 'visit' her there, because I didn't come out of my office for two days-I was working on a project-She wanted to find out why I was so busy...
Effing weird.
RICHARD, it isn't a list of stalkers, it's a list of search results ABOUT female stalkers (and there are some males in the mix, as many of the results are from studies).
My bad...I must have left my brain in the car!:rolleyes::D
Ugh... ok, so I can't even be "just" friendly. I tried. The overly needy and clingy just gets worse. Should have just removed myself from the get go. He's a nice guy, he just needs to get more self assured.
Here is a direct link to the study to which Catty1 is referring

I am a firm believer in first impressions. If he creeped you out in this early stage, it will only get worse. No matter WHAT he says. It reminds me of that 'Oh honey I love you so much. Please change!" joke. That's who he is. Get away from him. :eek:

He seems like he has a big self-esteem problem, and because of that he's probably controlling. Does he want to know where you are all the time? If not, I can see that one coming next. I'd steer WAY clear of him. I met a guy online once that sounds like this. He all but proposed to me after a week, and we had never actually met, there wasn't even a date set to do that! :eek: It scared the heck out of me. I say run for the hills! Don't ever look back, this guy sounds creepy.
Not just steering clear, but gone!!
I tried to be nice. That's just me. Nice just didn't work. It just made it worse. He was "in love" with me!! Ummm... you don't know me!!! Seriously, wft?! That and he "didn't like" my guy friends. Did you know them?? Did you ever meet them?? NO... so back off buddy. SCARY DUDE!!!!
So much for trying to be nice and be friendly. It's not worth it in this case. He is now blocked and removed from accounts as friends, etc...
You gave him your phone number right? Does he also have your address and know where you work/shop? It definately sounds like stalking behaviour starting. That is very scary. If anything out of the ordinary starts going on, please do not hesitate for a minute to contact the police. If you have any copies of emails, phone messages, or things like that keep them for evidence. Hopefully you'll never need them and this guy will just go away without any more problems.

Thank you, Catlady711. I don't think he'll get to that point. He hasn't called me, and I don't think he'll try to follow me as he's still disabled from a fall that he had a few years ago (he uses a walker at times), although I'm sure if he wanted to he could find ways to find me. I just don't see it happening. If I do, he'll be reported to the police ASAP.
LOL... or so you wanna think.. LOL
creepy guy.. glad you ditched him... hope he gets it this time... sorry for him but being like that only drew you away... if he wants friends he needs to change... big time... otherwise heŽll stay as he is...
blue: that was exactly the song I had on my mind when I started reading this... haha...
Well look like he showed his true colours, remember also he might never have actually had that fall and be partially paralyzed, it could all be rubbish, you can be who ever you want on the internet,glad you ditched him, he sounded like a nightmare about to happen, take care and be sooo....careful, but good luck.:)
My one son was dating a stalker girl. Talk about scary. Very very low self esteem, extremely clingly. Bossy, know it all, very competative. She would show up at odd hours and just not leave. She would follow me from room to room talking, talking, never shutting up. I came down one morning and she popped up out of my sofa, she spent the night there.:eek::eek: I was like, what the hell, why didn't you go home. My son was in his room with the door closed, she was on the sofa, it was so strange. I finally told my son that she was never ever ever ever going to be welcomed in my home again and if she set foot on my property I would call the police. Did that matter to her, not in the least. At my Christmas party she parked her car outside my house and sat there for 45 minutes while guests came. She was on the phone with my son, crying begging him to let her in and how mean and horrible I was. My son was so upset. I finally said to him,"look I told you months ago she would never be welcomed here and this is our Christmas she is NOT welcome. She just refused to leave. Finally I couldn't stand it anymore. It was horrible, I had 50 people in my house it was our Christmas party and this insane stalker wouldn't leave. I went into the garage and grabbed a bat, my intention was to smash her windshield with it and scare her. My husband said I would be arrested, I said I didn't care, it would be worth it. My one son went outside and told her what I was planning on doing. She left. Did that stop her NO. She showed up and my son's college graduation, it's a public place not much you can do. I finally made it clear to her that if she ever came near my home again I would hurt her. Finally she left, but only with the fear of extreme violence against her. No restraining order will stop these crazy people, they don't obey the law. The only thing she understood at that point was that I would hurt her. Your read about these people on TV stalking, breaking into houses, killing ex-lovers. The only thing they understand is how to dominate with fear, luckly I put a greater fear into her and now she married some poor fool. God help him and his famiy. It's funny how fear will make you angry and strong. There was no way I wa going to let her hurt us any more.
And people wonder why I'm overly cautious about what information I'll give online.
So sorry to hear something like that happened to your family. While stuff like that is fairly uncommon, it's becoming more of a problem, and I'll stand by my stance of limited info available about me online.
They did meet on-line. This girl is highly educated and extremely talented. However her physical apprenece was not so great, very very over weight, perhaps 250 lbs and almost bald. She must be suffering from alapecia. It had a lot to do with her low self-esteem I am sure. My son didn't care that she was heavy and almost bald, he liked her a lot. I was very proud of him for that. However I am sure that she was teased by others. When she meet someone who liked her for herself and not her looks she latched onto him like a rash on a butt. Soon however it became apperent that she didn't care for him she just wanted to control him and it got ugly fast. She also has a photogragic memory. Smart and crazy. When I think back on all the manipulative things she did it makes my skin crawl. One doesn't think of a brillant person as a stalker but she was.
Later that day when I realized she had spent the night, when I got all the details, how she said good night to my son (he was going to bed) she told him " I am just going to go downstairs and hang with your mom for a bit" I then took the wash upstairs and went to bed, my husband was watching TV in our room, our daughter was in her room, she said to me " I am going to get something to drink and hang out with our son for a bit. We had all said goodnight to her, and she knew that, planned it that way, it was her intention to NOT leave my home. There we were the four of us in bed with no idea that Miss Crazy Stalker was downstairs. Oh God even now it makes me so sick to think of that. What was she doing? Going through our private paper work, snopping, planning, plotting to hurt us? So scary.
She would call my son 30 days a day, first being nice and then getting madder and madder when he didn't call back and finally just screaming. By the time the Christmas party came and she sat outside I was so done. I was afraid for my family and I was ready to take action. I wanted to make it clear 1000% percent that her presence would not be welcome not today, tomorrow or ever. I had to make her more afraid of me then I was of her that is how to get rid of a stalker.
Damn. That's crazy scary!!!
Thankfully, he hasn't tried to contact me since the day he emailed me and I told him to back the eff off or he'd be getting a visit from my brother. My brother is retired navy, and was a drill instructor and would kick his butt.
