Question

Have you ever been stalked?

Answer 1

omg i wish

Answer 2

Yes, and it happened in the 70s before people even called it stalking or thought there was anything wrong with it...and there were no laws against it, either!

There was a boy two years ahead of me in school who was doing it. He was the kind of boy who got made fun of by the other kids, and I tried to be nice to him because I kind of felt sorry for him being bullied, but apparently he took it wrong.  He started sending me unwanted gifts and letters the last part of my sophomore year even though I had asked him to stop...but he still did it anyway. My mother thought he was just being kind and said I should appreciate the attention since no other boys seem to want to go out with me...but this guy was NOT the kind of guy I was attracted to or even wanted for a boyfriend. I thought he was ugly, and just the idea of him touching me made my stomach turn.

Even after he graduated and went into the military he kept sending me gifts and letters...even though I never wrote back, and I'd either give the gifts to others or throw them away.  It wasn't long before he started sending me letters with all sorts of trash in it like sexual references and pornographic pictures! I went to the police then but they said there was nothing they could do since he wasn't in town, and my mother said basically just ignore him because "boys will be boys."  

After awhile, I started just throwing the letters away without even reading them. He stopped for a while, but when he came home on leave, he tried to start up the same c**p! By that time I was 18 and a senior in high school. He told his and my mother that he wanted to take me to the movies, and both of them were pressuring me to accept the date because  he's "such a nice gentleman" and he's a lonely soldier...but I found out from his sister that he wasn't planning to take me to any movie, instead he was actually planning to take me to a motel 50 miles away and "have his way" with me!  I was so angry when I found out, so I told him off right in the street...in front of his family, my family and friends...and I demanded that he leave me alone once and for all!  Sure, he left me alone, but then he then started doing the same mess to a friend of mine who was a junior at the time. He stalked her for two years as well.  Neither of us knew the guy was stalking the other of us....until 20 years after the fact! Weird, huh?

Nowadays I hear young women talk about some guy stalking them and they say it with a gleam in their eye and a smile on their face...I just want to shake them when they do that!  If they were truly being stalked in the legal sense of the word, they wouldn't find it amusing. They'd find it frightening and frustrating!

Answer 11

No, thank Goodness. It would be awfully scary to be stalked by someone, though. I was in Paris on a train a few months ago and I caught an old man taking photographs of me behind a seat. That was terrifying! (It couldn't be classed as stalking but it was strange!)

No but I was bashed once about the head with celery--the whole head.
