SpanksTheMonkey Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 I'm not 100% sure if this is were to post this if not then maybe tony can move it to the right place sorry guys... This is a odd subject for me as ive never had this happen to me before but I keep noticing this one guy every time I leave my flat IE go to the mail or go out to talk to the other nabor this guy always seams to show up some how. I'm fairly sure he lives in one of the flats in the next block of units over from us if not those then hes def in the imitate vicinity some wheres. Tonight while I was walking to get my supper its about a 5 min walk to the fish and chips shop something odd happed. I was walking with my Walkman on and when I turned around at the light/crossing to look for cars turning guess who was walking behind me. So I keep going and a few mins later I kinda look back and nothing its like he left when I saw him. I don't know maybe I'm reading to much into it but he just seams to POP up allot lately and the one day when I was coming out of my flat he was actually standing on the road and really smiling at me like he was truly happy to see me! Now note ive never had a conversation with this person before in my life so why greet me like I'm your best friend already? it was just well quite bizarre. I'm not a unfriendly person in real life but I do not get good vibes from this person for some reason..
Eeyore79 Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Maybe he was just smiling because you're pretty and he fancies you? He may not realise he's freaking you out. He may not be stalking you at all - it's normal to see your neighbour in the street - maybe you just think he's stalking you and actually he isn't. If you're definitely sure that he's stalking you, but his behaviour isn't threatening, then I'd approach him and just tell him that he's making you nervous and could he please back off. If he seems threatening then do not approach him; call the police and let them have a word with him.

Um maybe thats it but if he fancies me hes going about it in a rather strange/creepie way also I live with my partner and hes visible in our home so I'm sure this guy would have seen him. If I'm reading this guy wrong I sure would be the 1st to say sorry but I just don't know its not that kind of vibe I'm not in total fear or anything but its just one of those odd things in life and it seams to be happening more and more lately..
O'Malley Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) He may simply be dense about how his behavior comes across, but it never hurts to trust your gut instinct about a situation. Act confident and alert about your surroundings, brief, but flat eye contact, no response to his behavior. Attempting to talk to him will just encourage him, if he actually is a loony. It never hurts, for your own general safety, to at least carry pepper spray. Edited August 25, 2010 by O'Malley
