No I guess I have been lucky. You sure got to be careful.

Just you. Tee hee.

@tinyfaery lol, whatever.

I do have one and he’s creeping me out.

Stalkers (online and off) seem to be drawn to me.

I’ve dealt with each creep differently. Fortunately the internet usually allows for some degree of privacy if you choose to use it, it comes in handy.

No, fortunetley.

I have had one person here that has pm’d me a handful of times wanting me to share in some voyeuristic play….I made it clear that I am not at all interested and now when their infrequent comments show up I just delete them on the spot.

Block the guy in any and all ways possible. If he can still have access to you in some way, NEVER reciprocate. Treat him like he does not exist.

I went on one date with this guy, who I gave my email address to. I wasn’t attracted to him at all and we didn’t have anything in common. He kept sending me emails, trying to get me to accept him on Yahoo Messenger and also Facebook. I deleted my email account and Facebook account. Haven’t heard from him again. Thank goodness I had the sense not to give him my cellphone number and my landline is not listed in the phone directory.

Yes and I ended up leaving a site because of it. I’m no longer the fun, easygoing and flirtatious person I used to be when sharing online so no more chatting and no more fun avatars.

Yes. Still dealing with it. Lemme know if you learn any tips or something. :] I’m just waiting for when he finds out I’m on Fluther. My one escape. D:

It depends on how aggressive this stalker is. Recently I had an extremely aggressive stalker to the point that I shut down 2 email accounts and my facebook, waited about 3 weeks, and opened a new email via a different service and have a facebook under an alias with only a few friends.

Luckily I am not interesting or desireble enough for anyone to stalk me.

Just tell him to fuck off. You must like the drama.

Jude's avatar

@SeventhSense I don’t. Trust me.

It must suck being a chick. I was talking to this girl and she was telling me her biker tenant was just standing outside her sliding glass door in his boxers. He was hoping to get a little action. I was like holy shit WTF! Makes a cheesy come on line seem downright adorable in comparison. Where’d he get his moves, Ted Bundy.
If that was me, I’d cut his balls off.

You have a couple of choices…

Ignore him…

Out him so everyone knows what a scum sucking loser he is…

Ask him for his phone number and address and then tell him to leave you alone or you will post his name and address on Craigs list for male call services.

Most often though they don’t fall into the dangerous category. Every guy has said or done something stupid and then tried to correct it and gone too far at one time or another. As have women. I had a girl knock down my door once. I stayed with her for 5 years. She was a psycho keeper.
