And that, children, is why you shouldn't be nice to people.

Two years ago I had a phone stalker. I worked with him for a couple of months at the Gap and he'd tracked down my new number from my sister. I swear to God, the second my new line was connected, he called. I'm not too sure why I didn't answer the first time he called, but I'm kind of crazy like that...sometimes I answer and sometimes I don't. Anyways, so he leaves a message and I don't call him back. I was busy with school and to tell you the truth the dude kind of creeped me out. I mean, we were friendly at work, but why he gotta be calling me at home? So I didn't think too much of it until I noticed one day that my caller ID showed that he'd called 5 times while was at school. No messages. This was more than a little creepy to me. Anyways, so this happened repeatedly for almost 5 months. He'd call like 6 times in the span of one hour...rarely leaving messages. Every time his number showed up on my phone I felt more and more violated. In the end, my records showed that he'd called over 60 times...never once ever actually talking to me. This dude was in desperate need of getting a copy of "She's Just Not That Into You". I still sometimes get creeped out at the thought of him attacking me in my back alley while screaming "you should have answered the fucking phone bitch!".
