What that guy was doing was not stalker-ish, it was flat out stalking and you did the right thing by telling him flat out that it was not OK. The people who'd accuse you of being mean for putting it bluntly are the same people who'd accuse you of being too vague if you had tried to put him off gently.<br /><br />You have a right to keep yourself safe. Don't apologize for doing so and don't feel like you have to ignore your antennae twitches even if listening to them means not being nice to someone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-80581995596146398372013-04-08T02:04:27.827-04:002013-04-08T02:04:27.827-04:00Stalking behavior is any sort of behavior that is ...Stalking behavior is any sort of behavior that is made or known by the offender to cause the victim to feel threatened. I would say that letting the gentleman know the behavior was unwanted put him on notice to stay away.<br /><br />Good move for the OP taking the cards and asserting a boundary. This guy might have been just socially askward, but that behavior is disturbning. At least he seems to have gotten the picture and stayed away.

Even in crazy world, admitting that you're following a person you barely know has to be a bad thing right? Personally, I'm impressed that he could count her steps (and do the averages) because I would have gotten bored or been distracted by a squirrel or something. That is why I rarely stalk people.<br /><br />Good on the OP for nipping the situation in the bud though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3186499665856075184.post-53665781053385483592013-04-07T22:00:44.605-04:002013-04-07T22:00:44.605-04:00Oops, please pardon my typo.

That is downright creepy! I am glad you told him so and did not continue the "date." Kust thinking about him following you and counting your steps (enough times to come up with an average!) makes my skin crawl.
