Have you come across any weirdos or creeps in real life or on the internet?
What was/is your experience with them?
Have you ever been the victim of a stalker?

I don't mind helping someone, but the fact that he was honking his horn EXPECTING you to remove it......no way. That's arrogant.

I have a neighbour who screams at his numerous cats (it's hard to tell how many he has) at 2-3 in the morning.
I have never had a stalker but I did have this guy, who I went to college with, telling everyone he worked with I was his girlfriend. I hadn't seen him in about 3 years.

General Field Marshal during Hitler's tenure as Chancellor. He commanded armies in Poland (1939), France (1940) and Russia in both the 1941 and 1942 offensives, and his passionate belief that the greatest ambition of a German youth must be to die in the service of the Fatherland earned him the nickname "the Holy Fire of Küstrin." In this book, the reader gets "Fedi's" view of some of the most titanic events of the Twentieth Century - not merely battles but the bitter interpersonal and political wrangling which characterized Hitler's Reich, and may have cost Germany Ok

I had a woman stalk me on the old IMDB. She found out my real name, found my mother's obituary online and proceeded to post as my mother. Then she found my sister's webpage, stole her photo and began posting as my sister. She encouraged everyone to send me hate emails (never received any), got into my Facebook page (until I put it on lockdown), and took a picture of my dead cat and began making fun of it. She did this for an entire year in an attempt to force me off IMDB, all while remaining anonymous (her moniker was "Bookmanmovielover"). She started out as a female, then switched over to a male identity, then switched back again when she became both my mother and my sister.
The only thing that ended her harassment was the shutting down of the IMDB message boards.

When I was a teenager I started emailing a guy, supposedly a teenaged boy, and after about a year his messages got weirder and he sounded obsessed with me, and then he did a 180 on his age, that the whole time we were talking he was a year younger than me, then suddenly he was a year older than me, and that was when I knew I had to find some way to end it. The only thing I could think to do was just to completely abandon that email account because just seeing the messages from him were enough to give me an anxiety attack, I'd delete them, I'd junk them, he still wrote. Somehow I had already learned what I would later read in Gavin de Becker's book The Gift of Fear, about stalkers, to cut off all contact completely, don't try and reason with them, don't try and give them an ultimatum, just cut off all contact in total, and in a couple months they'll lose interest and move on. Not sure how well that same advice applies to online stalkers since it's easier for them than when the book was written, but still in that instant it worked.

Yeah. Mostly from men wanting to meet up. I once gave my pic to a man (we were friendly, not romantic) and he proceeded to follow me all over the internet. This is why I dont go out of my way to talk to people online. I dont post pictures, either.
Real life? Well, I work in medicine/healthcare, so...yeah....

All the time, and I'm sure people view me as weird. Anybody different than you seems weird.

-GubbsDoing good--much better than I did on the IMDB. Bookman disappeared into the netherworld, though I did find a long, rambling post she wrote about me on a blog somewhere. She called herself "Thunder" and pretty much revealed that she was actually the old "Grace" from the Middle boards.

Have you ever been the victim of a stalker? yes. online stalking. 2 of them working together. got prank called and cyber bullied but it ended in 2012. because I found them with a public post on google plus where the secondary one's last name was exposed. So I looked her up on facebook, her city and state were listed, so I looked for the nearest walmart in that city. the area code matched. so I called her back and said "may i speak to" and said her first and last name. then she panicked and it stopped after that because by then they knew I could go to the cops with her phone number and full name.
