    Out of all the creepiness, this sentence stands out: "I would've told you sooner, but I needed to make sure we fell in love". This guy sees your decisions and feelings as something to be intentionally manipulated rather than respected. You're not a person in his eyes, but a glorified prop to satisfy his emotional needs and desires. Dating someone like that would be hell on earth. I'm sorry you went through this.

      We have fight, flight, freeze, or friend.

    • @AbbyTayu
      @AbbyTayu 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I agree you should either go full deception or full honesty. I think hinting is a bad idea, which is why I'm skeptical that Anna offered hints. If you are alone with your predator and think he may be aggressive, offering hints of your disinterest may trigger him. If you later decide to reveal the truth from the safety of your home, it's best to be as direct as possible; giving hints may make him think there is still room for you to change your mind.
      Sorry to hear about your story. It sounds like a scary experience. I was surprised by the behavior of the "someone" you told. Was this a friend? An adult? I expect most people would treat an earnest report of sexual assault seriously. We do need to think critically about why a person might respond that way though. Perhaps they also felt intimidated by the predator and took his side to maximize their own safety. Or perhaps the "someone" was a child or someone who didn't know how to handle the situation, so they pretended it wasn't real, as an easy way out. Sorry if this wasn't a discussion you were looking for, and sorry if it looks like I'm making excuses for everyone besides you. I offer these discussions because I think it's valuable to consider why people don't react the way we want them to, so that we are less surprised when it happens and so that we can think of other strategies to get what we want.

Never commented, don't know if you read them or not but girl. GURL. What in the name of sweet baby kittens is the matter with people. I am in awe. And do you know what the WORST thing is?

      Yeah, sadly a lot of media has given us a warped view of what is romantic. There are a lot of "romantic" movies that are extremely unrealistic, and would be extremely creepy if they happened in real life.
      As a guy, I know that those movies have affected my way of thinking. The whole, pursue a woman and perform antics to get her attention thing is in my head. Thankfully, it isn't really acted upon, but the influence is there. I don't really know how to go about romancing someone that I'm interested in. I wasn't really taught about it, so I just do the best that I can.
      I try to be cognizant of a woman's potential concerns. Meeting in public, trying to leave a safe path out, and keeping the lines of communication open. Until I started watching videos like this and learned other things women deal with I was quite ignorant. The thought of harming a woman for rejecting me is one of the last things on my mind. I'm more likely to withdraw and heal than do anything to someone.
      That said, I also can see how someone as obsessed as the guy mentioned here could be dangerous. I am aware of how that mindset can come about, and that such people can be extremely dangerous. I hope that Anna, and other ladies in similar situations stay safe.
      I am grateful to Anna and other ladies for sharing their experiences. It is really informative. We need more open conversations about these and other relationship adjacent subjects. Many people have largely been left with media being their only teacher when it comes to romance. Which really doesn't work.

    I saw something a while ago that said, "A man knows a women much longer than she's known him", which I get. A lot of us will run across a woman, check out their social media, even ask about them if they have people in common (friends, coworkers, family friends, etc.), and do this for a little while before we decide whether or not to pursue them. Depending on how a man (or woman) goes about this, it's kinda(?) normal and gives you the opportunity to see if it's a good idea - or its obsessive and kinda stalker-ish

He called asking me out and I thought he had a cute accent. He told me how he got my number after I asked him in the middle of the date. That’s when I realized my mistake and when he asked to take a picture with me, regrettably I did because I was freaking out and was trying not to show it, and then I just made an excuse to leave and went home, circling around the blocks a few times to make sure I wasn’t being followed.

    Holy crap. I've heard plenty of horror stories from women in my time (and some men too) but this is serious Play Misty for Me level stuff. Really glad you're safe and keep safe out there

    I actually do think him coming clean is better , it makes him less creepy .. overall still creepy but he is one of the better ones

    This literally seems pulled out of a horror movie. I'm so glad you made it out safe.

    I was super proud to see you had made it from =3 to AntMan. So much progress. Sorry you picked up a stalker along the way

      Note: Said hat cannot be a fedora or else your chances of success plummet exponentially

    In all seriousness, stalking is no joke, but I am glad you can find humor in it and that you're safe.

    This is like a Netflix documentary. The drama, the realness, the story telling. Great message thanks Anna ❤️

      No this is reality, the problem is you women watch these dumb brainwashing shows, that imply if anyone likes you they are stalkers and psychotic.
