DirtBikeGurl47: what issue?
King of Heart5: well
King of Heart5: i'm sorta suprised/yet sort of not that you don't know what i'm talking about
King of Heart5: this is not very recent, but during one of the last tuesday night rehersals joel came up to me out of the blue and basically threatened me
King of Heart5: claimed i was harassing you and that you wanted to report me or some out of left field garbage
DirtBikeGurl47: how? what did he say?
King of Heart5: if you really don't know what i'm talking about, that sure puts an interesting spin on things
DirtBikeGurl47: no i think i know what he means
DirtBikeGurl47: its just that every time i turn around you are always there
DirtBikeGurl47: really close or looking at me and or him and it freaks me out
King of Heart5: if i was doing anything, it was completely unintentional
King of Heart5: and I apologize
DirtBikeGurl47: it doesn't seem that way
DirtBikeGurl47: it seems at least a couple of times a day you are akwardly there
DirtBikeGurl47: i mean it's not just me who notices it
King of Heart5: i had no idea what he was talking about, but that's why i have been completely evasive these last few weeks
DirtBikeGurl47: kit's also my other friends who are around me as well
King of Heart5: odd as it sounds, it seems as if i do bump into you guys often and it's not by design
DirtBikeGurl47: and obvioyusly joel notices it because were going out
DirtBikeGurl47: and he may get offended by it
King of Heart5: i mean, sorry if i'm walking to the gym and that's where your locker is, but come on
DirtBikeGurl47: no it's niot just that
DirtBikeGurl47: i'll be walking up the stairs and it seems like you'll almost do a freaking circle just to see me
DirtBikeGurl47: or wakl behind me and i get the wtf look from joel and other people im walking with
DirtBikeGurl47: it's not just by my locker
King of Heart5: if it seems i've been shutting you out lately, it's because i did not WANT any problems
King of Heart5: when would i have done that...
DirtBikeGurl47: enough for me and the poeple i walk with to notcie
King of Heart5: jeez, do you hate me that much? what did i ever do
DirtBikeGurl47: it just seems that you are following me everywhere and it bothers me andn creeps me out
King of Heart5: i've even been avoiding eye contact with you...
DirtBikeGurl47: really i haven't noticed
King of Heart5: I'm not, but believe what you want, it's not like anybody listens to me anyway
King of Heart5: or that what i say's gonna change what you think
King of Heart5: and I REALLY don't like your friends even talking to me, because it's NEVER anything i want to hear
DirtBikeGurl47: what are you takling about

King of Heart5: i understand that
DirtBikeGurl47: they do it when im not even in the room
DirtBikeGurl47: why do you hold me responsible for that just because im friends with them
King of Heart5: I apoligize if you think i've been stalking you, but i have not

King of Heart5: and I didn't know what to say to him honestly
DirtBikeGurl47: well it is harrassment
DirtBikeGurl47: how did he threaten you?
DirtBikeGurl47: he's just concerned because he's noticed you around me akwardly a lot im just taking a guess but im sure he was just trying to tell you to back off nicely

DirtBikeGurl47: this has been happening for at least a couple of months

[KamenRiderZero]

Welcome to the world of confusing women, dude.

I once was accused of stalking someone for less than that <_<

If you find that confusing or odd, my ex was/is stranger.

My current love interest is also a bit confusing....scratch that, she's a freaking enigma....<_<

 

[Kouji Kabuto]

Note that I say this without personally knowing the parties involved.

You have to publicly confront Joel and tell him that you aren't doing anything and that if he's paranoid enough to think that any innocent thing you do is a threat to him then he obviously has no f*cking balls. I mean, you can't accuse a guy for being "awkwardly" there. Now if you were following them around even after school or work or something, THAT's stalking.

Oh, and don't bother talking to the girl about it... or anymore. Not worth it if some poison from others is affecting your friendship.

"DirtBikeGurl47: why do you hold me responsible for that just because im friends with them" - that line just pissed me off.

Pretend she doesn't exist. That'll either feed their paranoia more or it'll let them realize the truth.

Either way, it shouldn't matter to you anymore.

 

[Bolt]

I have a question.

Are you stalking her? That does seem like a shitload of coincidence, and I don't believe in coincidence.

Even if you have to pass by her to go to class or whatever, anytime you see her on campus, just act like you don't notice her or make it a habit to just be talking to someone when you're around her.

Joel doesn't need to be confronted, he did the right thing. If my girlfriend thought she was being stalked I'd say something too.

Bottom line is, you can't blame it on girls being "stupid" or "confusing"; if you're freaking her out, that's your bad. Even if it doesn't seem to be crossing your line it might be crossing hers. I'm not calling you out, but step off if you're doing something you know may spook her, like the staring.

Do you like her?

 

[VengeanceGOD]

My instinct in that situation would be to completely **** with them, but you shouldn't listen to my instincts.

Just ignore her entirely. Put her as far out of your life as possible. Make every effort to not aknowledge her existence, and if she still flips out, she's just a freak.

After reading Bolt, who posted right as I did...it is a valid question. I'm assuming since you posted this here asking for help that everything she said is not, in fact true, but just to clarify, you AREN'T doing that stuff, right?

I have a problem where I stare at people accidentally...my eyes just naturally land on a person's face when I'm zoning out as opposed to, say, a wall. Really freaked my girlfriend out before we dated...could it be something like that?

 

[Keith Justice]

I haven't read all of this, but listen to Bolt. Sometimes it CAN be your fault. Hell, in my younger days I've been there... totally didn't see it at the time. :sweat:

 

[SaikoDragon]

Bottom line is you instigated the issue further by confronting her. You did the right thing at first by apologizing and asking what the "deal" was. But you dropped the ball the minute you started your whole "well I admit we bump into each other alot hur hur" line. Huge mistake. In that whole conversation you come off as overly defensive and guilty. To me, that's my observation.

She's a little paranoid, so why argue with her? If it were me? I would have just said "I'm sorry, chill, I'll try not to bother you. Don't spaz and if you're BF threatens me, I can contact the school staff for you to resolve this issue."

She told you the problem. Her BF confronted you. She said that she felt uncomfortable by the fact that you seem to be around her more often than she's ok with.

Honestly, the way she says it, she might have a point man. Don't go out of your way to avoid her but you should respect her feelings and say "Sure, I'll try to back off."

You admit yourself you end up bumping into her often. Why dont you make it a habit to just avoid her? Just for the **** of it. Just to humor her. There's nothing confusing about this. She's uncomfortable around you. Why make it worse by confronting her more? Avoid her when and where possible.

Now, if you need to go down a certain hall and she happens to be in it, go down that hall anyway. Just dont look at her, dont stop and make a scene. Dont be a ***** about it, just walk on by and keep living your life.

It's not hard. It would probably be best if you didnt talk to her on AIM anymore either. If further problems come up at school, bring the issue to a counselor, parent, or another authority figure that can help you.

If she's in one or more of your classes, walk in, sit down where you normally sit and just move on with your life. Dont look at her and dont talk to her. She obviously wants nothing to do with you so dont give her the time of day.

You have to publicly confront Joel and tell him that you aren't doing anything and that if he's paranoid enough to think that any innocent thing you do is a threat to him then he obviously has no f*cking balls.

Yey!! Strife, do what this guy says if you want a fight to break out. If that's how you roll, if you want a pissing contest and a fist fight, go for it. Tell him he has no balls because he wants to protect his girl friend from potential creeps. You might not be a creep but how's he supposed to know that?

The BF wants nothing to do with you because you make his GF feel uneasy. So back off and let the paranoid kids calm down.

"DirtBikeGurl47: why do you hold me responsible for that just because im friends with them" - that line just pissed me off.

Why? ; She made an excellent point which I felt made Strife look a bit obsessive. She can't control her friends. She can't tell them what to do. If they're picking on you, Strife, then confront THEM. Not her. Call THEM a ***** to their face. Or whatever you want to say to them.

Why do you expect her to do something? She's not going to protect you from her own friends. Why even bring it up in that matter.

School Drama. It's so cute.

Pretend she doesn't exist. That'll either feed their paranoia more or it'll let them realize the truth.

Either way, it shouldn't matter to you anymore.

Exactly. That's all you have to do Strife. Toss it behind you, forget you even know her and move on with your life.

Dont confront the BF, dont confront her, and dont confront her friends. Just go on with your life.

Bolt is a life sazer, I agree with that post 100%. Listen to him.

 

[Keith Justice]

More good advice! Make sure you write this shout down, Duel.

 

[Mikazuki]

My advice - stay away from her. She's playing a game and she's trying to get you into trouble with the guys she's with. If she was THAT threatened by you or felt like you were stalked, she'd tell you to back off and leave her alone BEFORE you approached her OR she'd have gone to the school officials about it. Find different routes to your classes, if possible, and also if possible discuss the situation with your school counselor and give him/her a heads up on this.

 

[Duelist Strife]

I'm not stalking her. :disappoin

I have felt her somewhat attractive, but ever since her choice of BF has turned my opinion very sour...the guys a tall dumb drumline jackass IMO. He's never been nice (for lack of a better word) to me.

I have a problem where I stare at people accidentally...my eyes just naturally land on a person's face when I'm zoning out as opposed to, say, a wall. Really freaked my girlfriend out before we dated...could it be something like that?

That has happened to me on occasion, but not neccessarially with her.

And so far, most of this has been very good advice.

if possible discuss the situation with your school counselor and give him/her a heads up on this.

He never does **** anyway. :redface2:
