I've had a stalker for about a year, and my friends beat him up...?

Question

Okay so here is the deal. I had a stalker for about a year. I don't know how to explain this but where I live, there are three predominant areas. One of the areas is where he lived, along with all of my friends so whenever I visited a friend or went to hang out there, he would be following. He has a yellow car, so it is distinct. He also showed up at my school twice, and followed me downtown (started in his area to meet with friend then went downtown) and he was there too... But besides all this, I recently told my friend about this and he went and beat the c**p out of him with another friend of his. Why am I so livid about this? I was so mad at my friend for doing this and all I did was yelled. And now I feel horrible. Just to put this in perspective, I am 18, stalker is about 24, friend is 19 and friend of a friend is 20...

Answer 1

I would worry as  much about your friend as the stalker.  You should report that stalker to the police after you tell him to stop following you aound.... and your friend's anger should be dealt with too.  He needs anger management to show him that beating people up is a character flaw and we cant' all go around and beat people up when we are trying to me macho.  You can take care of yourself...you don't need people beating others up and you SHOULD be livid about it.

Not to stick up for your stalker...but that this friend is such a control freak and so possessive of you that he takes things into his own hands instead of trying to help you.

Your friend has a problem with managing his emotions and it will get him into trouble and end up being a wife beater someday if he doesn't watch it and get away with it all the time.  HE is a bully.

Tell your stalker to leave you alone and/or talk to the police...and show your friend you can handle yourself and don't need his violence to help you.   Violence feeds violence and I would think put you in a more dangerous situation.

Answer 2

youre upset because these guys beat the guy up and you feel responsible..

you shouldve gotten in touch with the police when you noticed this guy following you, they couldve gotten him to stop without violence...

next time you should handle things different...
