Was there someone horrible working on the Collins project? I realise perceptions are subjective and incomplete?

Did the Collins project have someone creepy, like the stalker in the following ? :



%26lt;%26lt;Q/I basically want closure, I want someone to stop following me.?

He doesn't give up, and I don't know what to do to get this creepy guy out of my life. I have called the cops like 15 times. No ones doing anything. Plus I have to hear from one of his many whores he got pregnant. She thinks it's my fault. This has been happening for 2 years. I've had it! Someone tell me what to do about this...and, I hardly know him!



A/ by Zee-ster /I'm sorry you are going thru this mess. I was stalked in college myself and know how upsetting it can be. The important things to do are make sure he has no access to your telephone number-in other words change your number to an unlisted one, if you haven't done this already; and carry a cell phone with you at all times that you can call 911 if/when you see him following you. In time this should pass. Do NOT talk to any one of his friends or women as the con-vo will likely get back to him and feed into this sick game he's got going. If/when they call or approach you, cut them off at the start. Refuse to listen or engage in conversation. In other words, cut all ties. Good luck with this. I feel you.



A/ by Ramakrishna Das /Go to your local court house and have a restraining order placed on him most of which are good for three weeks and then there is a court hearing to see if it should be continued.



During the court hearing explain what is going on, what has been going on, etc. and explain that you fear for your safety and welfare due to being stalked by this person.



The judge will handle it from that point on.



You might also check to see if there is a law in the state in which you reside against stalking. If there is, file a complaint against this person and charge him with stalking.



Begin to take martial arts classes so as to be able to defend yourself if necessary.



Buy a large dog and take the dog everywhere with you.



A/ by fa fas /he's pregnant?



A/ by Mark T /Sounds like you need a stunt boyfriend to step in and explain things to him, alternatively, how do you know the guy.



Through school or work - this could be a good reason to consider a job move, alternatively you may want to seek some advice from a local counseling service, if he really is persistent in his stalking you have options.



1. Sit with some closer friends (than you are likely to have on Y!A), and honestly ask them to assess the situation independently, if they agree that you have a serious problem, as them for advice.



This provides valuable weight to the police that you have a _problem_ and may want or need a restraining order.



2. If you have this guy in your workplace and even in a school environment it could easily be considered harassment, make sure folks know.



3. Tao defense - sometimes the best way you can defend against someone might be to simply make yourself an unattractive or unavailable target for them.



While this might not always work, and it might not be a good idea to casually mention something which he would find offensive or off-putting, taking yourself out of situations where the two of you meet is probably a good idea.



4. You can never be too prepared, if there was a reason for learning some martial arts or similar defense techniques - this guy sounds like the poster boy.



5. Explain to your mutual acquaintance (the pregnant woman), that not only aren't you interested but really wish the best for them as a happy couple. Again a reflexive strategy can work.



6. In all honesty having a boyfriend or a male friend two or hanging out with some girlfriends can be good social defense against some kinds of stalking.



7. Continue as you are going - no holds barred, if you know enough about his identity, drop information into the public domain, post his name and picture on a blog and explain just how creepy he is.



If he's done this to you, he's probably done it to other women, get the word out.



A/ by Fredric /..shine a light on him ..call your local news outlet and explain your story..tell them you have gone to the cops...tell them where to find him...they like human interest stories.....tell them you are afraid for your safety and it seems no one will help....tell them if something happens to you you at lest want a record of things....its a news story most likely they will call the cops and find out why nothing has been done....most likely they will find this guy and ask him why he is stalking you....make your situation a local news story with your stalker the central character....if i was a women that is what i would do...expose him to the public%26gt;%26gt;

Opinions and perspectives are worthless.



Plato wrote:

Opinion is the medium between knowledge and ignorance.



Knowledge is true opinion.



I tell you that things do not depend on your eye to exist and therefore ought to be understood correctly as they are and not as you see them. This is what I am killing myself at telling people: be humble, admit your ignorance and search instead of claiming to know what you don't know.



Socrates:

%26quot;To fear death, my friends, is only to think ourselves wise, without being wise: for it is to think that we know what we do not know. For anything that men can tell, death may be the greatest good that can happen to them: but they fear it as if they knew quite well that it was the greatest of evils. And what is this but that shameful ignorance of thinking that we know what we do not know?%26quot;



Truth my friends: if you don't possess it, tell me how on Earth would you logically prefer to stay ignorant rather than trying to be wise?
