The comment about they don’t give up gave me chills.
In college in the 90’s I had a guy who became obsessed with me. He would follow me continuously round campus. He’d pop up everywhere I went. He’d start waiting at the bus stop for me to arrive or try and beat me to it on the way home. Constantly send me notes and bombard me with compliments. The whole class thought it was hilarious - he was this thin, weedy looking boy - but it wore me down and I felt constantly harassed. I’d scream in his face
“ F off ! “ , I’d burst into tears “ leave me alone” but he’s just shrug, like the message just didn’t go in. He didn’t seem bothered he had me terrified.
One day I was at home and there was a knock at the door. It was my family home and he’d travelled two hours from his, getting several trains and then walked three miles to my house. I have no idea how he found out my address out or found it physically , this was way before Sat nav obviously. It absolutely terrified me. I told him to leave right now or I’d shout my parents. On the last day of college he cornered me and begged me for “ one last kiss. “ I ran out of there and didn’t look back.

20 years later I’d found my college had a Facebook group where previous students could reunite.
Because I put in the year I left it flagged up old messages from anyone who attended that year and there was a post from this guy saying he was looking for me and asking if anyone had contact with me. 20 years later.
I changed my name and moved towns due to marriage. I hope he never, ever finds me.

I’m so sorry you went through that. I hope you never have to see him again 😔

I felt so alone because nobody understood just how much it was affecting me, it left me having a breakdown and suicidal and yet still he wouldn’t stop. As I said my post, he hasn’t done anything in the past 5/6 months but it’s been ongoing for 6yrs so I do believe he will pop up again. Last summer he sent me an email from a new email just a full stop. like wtf, just letting me know he was still there. I really truly hope he does leave me be just can’t shake it that he won’t.

stalkers are horrible, horrible people and I really don’t care if it’s a mental illness or whatever, they ruin lives.
