Being Stalked

There is this guy in my library, And he's making me very uneasy I sat next to him one time, But the choice wasn't mine It was the only computer open, And no words were ever spoken I think he likes me, but I don't see why, I never once gave him any reply Monday, he came up from behind and said to me, I've been reading and copying your poetry I asked, where did you get it from? He said nothing, but instead just acted dumb He said he knows all of my poetry sites, But he never asked if it was all right He must have been watching my screen, And mentally noting what he'd seen Tuesday, he chased me after I went outside, And asked me if I wanted a ride I told him no, I'm waiting for the bus, And he put up a really big fuss I'm starting to get really afraid, And am feeling like an animal's prey How do I get him to leave me be, Should I inform mall security?

@.@ that's a sick dude, I think you should learn some big kung-fu moves and rip his mustache appart (if he has no mustache, give him something to grow one and rip it off with kung-fu moves); be careful lady, I hope you're doing better now and mister shadow was transformed into a toad feet by Thor himself; thanks for sharing C= take care please

Janice, please DO "inform mall security." This fella gives me the creeps, too. I was drawn by the title, but never imagined this might happen to a gentle soul like you. It might help to just say, "I'm not interested." God, now I'll be worrying about you! Carolyn

Janice, be very careful and make sure when you go out to your car you look around that he isn't following you. If he is, I would go back in and actually call the police. Good luck and be very careful! Love, Shar
