Poll: Stalking.

[Disaster Button]

Being that this is the internet and none of you know who I am and because I have no friends at all I've come to you for some.. something.

Recently I've been kind of obsessed over this guy I know and its gotten a little crazy for me. We've been at school together for something like 14 years and recently he moved and I dropped out for awhile so we don't see each other. We never really talked often but when we did it was always fun and he was always nice.. anyway, the point I'm getting to is that lately I've been having a really strong urge to stalk him. I never really found myself the stalker type, its always been a little desperate for my tastes but here I am.

I know he's going to be at a local festival soon and I keep fantasising about him and going and seeing him, and stuff. Now this would be incredibly crazy to just go and break into a festival just to see him on the off chance he even likes me, in anyway at all.

So, preferably, I want you all to tell me to be a man and stop being crazy or at least link me some kind of anti stalker electrocution band for myself or something, I don't really know. Escapists give me your shamdazzling insight, am I insane?

My advice? Get over it. No boy is worth that much trouble.

EDIT: Is it like a love thing or a friend thing?

Be a man, grow a pair, get wasted and shag the first thing you see. Lamppost, woman, man, doesn't matter.

*stumbles away*

 

[Soulgaunt]

Umm, why break into the festival?
That is the only thing that bothered me about your statement.

OT: Give it a try if you want, although it might have a chance of backfiring. Quick question: Would you honestly say that it seemed that he liked talking to you as much as you liked talking to him?

It costs money and money, I have not.

*shrug* he was always nice to me, doesn't mean he enjoyed talking to me.

Not really my style, but thanks anyway.

Happy to help, brosuf.

I find it hard to seperate the two, its more of a me being completely obsessed with him for no apparent reason, so probably some kind of warped love thing.

I mean, is it sexual? Trust me, I won't judge you at all if it is.

Why don't you just call the guy up, tell him you'd like to see him, then form a relationship if he likes you as much as you like him?

If he doesn't like you back, you can get over it and be done with it right away, instead of the whole thing taking up perhaps months of your time.

1: Okay, good point.
2: Hmm, well try to think back to those moments. If you think that there is a good chance that he'd want to talk to you as badly as you do him, then try it.

Here's the thing...I had an actual stalker. That sort of behavior almost never works the way you'd hope, mostly because the person being stalked tends to freak right the hell out. That's what happened in my case anyway. I think the guy in question thought he was just being persistent and hopeful, but to me it was obsessive and creepy. It culminated in me threatening a restraining order, switching job locations, and getting a new cell phone.

Honestly, please consider a different course of action. If you really like this guy, try just talking to him the next time you see him (without going out of your way to contrive circumstances in which you just bump into him; this would be creepy and usually pretty obvious). Be honest, say you'd like to go out with him. Then, if he says no, walk away. There will be plenty of other people in the future. If the guy's not interested, then he's not worth your time. Shouldn't you want to be with someone who actually likes you back?

People seriously the OP is not insane. He might be on the long and hard road but she isn't. I suggest you stop right now before it evolves into something worse

This song came to mind, probably because I've played way too much Gran Turismo 4:

Isn't it a dude judging by his profile? Just sayin'

If I'm wrong, I stand corrected on; Dude, brosuf, bro and "be a man". *hangs head low*

Well, for me it is a bit yeah.

In that case, I'd stick with my first advice.

I knew not using the usual he/she or her/him or himself/herself would bite me in the ass. I'll edit right away

I just wanna say, seeing as you're gonna edit my post into voidblivion, I need to say this:

Your avatar, bro. FAWKIN' EPIC.

 

[Disaster Button]

get some damn money and go to the festival and talk to him and see if he likes you. *****.

Kinda hard, even if I could the tickets are sold out and its like, tomorrow. Or today being that its like 6am now. Besides I haven't talked to him in a few months and even before that it was only now and then so I can't just be like HEY GUY WHATS UP SO DO YOU LOVE ME?

 

[Loop Stricken]

... or at least link me some kind of anti stalker electrocution band for myself or something, I don't really know.

If you find one, put me down for one as well.

I can kinda relate to what you're saying, and I can't judge because I can't decide whether it's crazy or not myself. People say that if you can recognise that something is insane, you're not. I say, those people just don't know that you can recognise its insanity and just not care.

Long story short, if I could've done similar to what you're proposing, by God I would've. But then I think it might just be that I'm cripplingly lonely. Or crazy.

This isn't helping much, is it? All I can say is you're not the only person to have ever felt like that and just try not to break laws too badly whatever you decide to do.
