Am I being paranoid? Or am I being stalked?
I met a guy in Home Depot 5-6 yrs ago. I only gave him my cell, we talked a couple of times, never clicked. I lost interest quickly, never went on a date. Honestly, he seemed like he was..... poor or cheap.... or something. Because he never asked me out (don't judge me).
After that I would always somehow bump into him at the supermarket or a nearby Walmart. The first few run-ins didn't seem odd. But then I'd see him EVERY time I went to that Walmart. Most of the times he would have his son with him but never any items. It was like he would be going up and down the aisles looking for me. We'd say hi and he'd say he's still waiting for me to give him the time of day. I'd cordially brush him off and keep it moving. I stopped going to that Walmart so I didn't notice it anymore and forgot all about him.
Fast forward to a couple years later. He calls my cell, we talk for a bit and I brush him off again after I see he hasn't changed and hang up. So check this out... he sends me a pic of himself in the buff!! I curse him out and tell him he disrespected me because I'm not that type of girl. He gets embarrassed and apologizes and I ignore all his calls/texts after that and he seemed even more interested in me. Apparently, he expected me to jump up and down after I saw his package??? Not happening, not that type of girl.
Fast forward about a year later. I go into work and there he is as a fill-in guard at my job!! I'm not saying this has anything to do with him stalking me and I don't think he knew where I worked anyway because I'm very private. But anyway, I say hello and keep it moving.
Okay, fast forward to a couple of months ago. I run into him at a party and he wants to give me his number. I said no, I already have it. Apparently, he lost his phone so he didn't have mine anymore. Tough luck. I keep it moving. I know, I know, I shouldn't have even talked to him but I wasn't quite as paranoid till the next event confirmed it.
Now fast forward to yesterday. I'm headed to a mall nowhere near my house and notice the air is gone from my front tire. I take it to the station and fill it up and it's fine. Shopped with my girlfreind at the mall all day and came home and parked my car in front of my house for the night. I get in my car this morning and there is a piece of paper with his number on it wedged in the door. How did this fool know where I live??? I never told him my address and I have a different car that I had from years ago when I'd see him in Walmart???
I think I'm just adding to my paranoia.
What do I do? This is really creepy because I never give out my address or my home number. Do I call him and ask how he got it? I didn't want to give him the satisfaction of calling him because that's what he wants.
