Told my tutor everything, was really nervous and shaking a bit. She was quite shocked but then not shocked if that makes sense? She hadn't picked up on anything other than that this guy has strange mood swings. It was ironic because she actually turned out to be the Harassment person at that college which was handy.
Anyway she wrote everything we said down and gave me stages to handle it I suppose. If I feel uncomfortable then I put my hand up (as a sort of barrier) and say something like 'I dont know the answer to that question, ask someone else'. If that doesnt work and he says something creepy then say 'Don't say those things to me. They make me feel uncomfortable'. If he goes off on one and persists then go back to my tutor where she can take it further. She said I can ring her at any time because I have her mobile number and to keep her updated and she will be keeping an eye out.
She told me to try not to be afraid of him and to just think of him as a sad and lonely man. As far as the him following me to university thing goes..if it carries on there to report it because they have harassment officers there and if he decides to live there not to open my door to him. Think the message she was trying to give is that not to let him spoil my time in education because what he's doing is not acceptable.
Oh, btw. have you seen the movie "Nightmare Stalkers" with this one chick in school and that creepy guy and everything was acceptable until she went to peach on him and he went mental broke into her house to re-arrange the furniture and draw hearts of his blood on the walls?
Oh sorry, that doesn't belong here.
good luck with that stuff, rachael.
I had someone I could only describe as a stalker about 6 years ago... unwanted attention agogo... he used to send me very freaky texts about me being the perfect woman etc.
Things then came to a head when he produced pictures of me (which he had posession of legitimately) but he had photoshopped them with me with fairy wings and on a pedestal etc - extremely scary stuff!
He was given a good talking to by a mutual aquaintance and although I had the odd text from him after that I didn't hear much more...
He bought me a Lindt bunny for Easter during all of this and since then I have never been able to bring myself to eat one... yuk!
hope it gets sorted soon, it's good you've spoken to someone now, it should be sorted soon I hope
had a day without him on monday was so relieved, thanks
