Some women from Orange County have been through stalking situations. It takes a while for some of them to remember their experience, but others are quick to recollect what they went through. There is no positive side to stalking. Some people may feel that it is cute, but it is not. If you have ever been stalked, you should report the incident to law enforcement. Here are the accounts of some of those women’s stalking experiences. We will only mention their city names for confidentiality purposes.
Stalking In Buena Park
She is the winner of a beauty contest from some years before. She first saw her stalker when at a CVS store with her sister, but she did not immediately realize that he had been following her. Then, he approached her and said that he had seen her before in a newspaper. The woman gave it no thought because she was featured in newspapers.
Then, she saw him again when on her morning running routine. At that time, he started to trail her in his vehicle, plus tried to grab her attention and talk to her. She said the incident frightened her, so she ran home. Anyhow, it happened again, only to force her to call the cops that time around. The cops told him to stay away from her, so he stopped doing it for a long time afterward.
She thought that it would not happen to her again, but it occurred repeatedly. On many occasions, she had to run to her home, close the window blinds and lock herself inside. On one occasion, the stalker even went to her workplace, which frightened her further. So, she started to change the hours of her running routine to make it slightly harder for him to identify her whereabouts.
Stalking In Santa Ana
She was part of her high school’s color guard team, its marching band to be more precise. Back then, one boy was very interested in her. So, she had sex with him, but he felt that they were meant to have a life together afterward. She did not feel the same way about that boy.
Anyhow, he kept following her around the school, and waiting around there to see her after class hours. He wrote her some letters and poems, but the poems were copied from the internet. So, she criticized him for it, and he apologized for the same. She even told him that she was not into him and would not like to have a relationship with him. He said it was OK, but kept stalking the girl to her classes for an entire academic year. Nothing untoward happened to her because he started to do it to a different girl.
Huntington Beach Stalking Situation
She was a 20-year-old person when working for a Utah-based mortgage firm. She was 20 years younger than him and was in the IT department of that company. He had no reason to be part of her life other than working in the same company. She would talk to him only when her work PC crashed. After her employment there, she moved to the state of California. Then, he started to be her Instagram follower. He continued to flirt with her on the social networking website for five years on the trot. She did not reply to any of those flirtatious messages from him.
After that, he visited the bar in which she was working, but she knew what was happening to her. So, she distracted him with a usual bartender-like question and then exited through the back of the bar.
Stalking In Fullerton
Seven years before the stalking incident, she knew the man around from when they spent time socializing within the same groups. He was more of an acquaintance to her, not a friend. She used social media actively to post her activities. One day, the man suddenly appeared in a bar in which she was socializing with her friend. It happened without any warning after he looked at her social media post, she said.
That was her warning signal. After that, she started to see him pretty much everywhere. Once, she got slightly intoxicated, and he said something that showed he wanted to start a relationship with her. She told him that she wished to have no more contact with him through social media or other means.
Then, on another incident, someone grabbed her arm and tried to drag her along an escalator. She thought it was the end of life before her friend appeared and started to ask what was happening. Then, the man dropped her arm and disappeared.
The incident mentally affected her so much that she could not head outdoors after it. She is still very defensive around others who touch her.
Long Beach
At the age of 13 years, she resided in a Long Beach condominium. She and her friends would visit the nearby park via their neighborhood path. One day, a guy stalked them in his vehicle. It appeared that he lost his way as he was only circling, but then he approached them. He stopped the vehicle and asked them the whereabouts of a store.
They could not hear him as he was in this vehicle, so they got closer to it. Then, she saw him in a half bare state and playing with himself. They spotted his car a few days afterward in their neighborhood. She was so scared that she did not note down the license plate number of that vehicle. It was the first time she realized such things happen in the real world, not just in the movies.
It mentally affected her for quite a while. After coming out of her school bus, she needed to walk some blocks to reach home. So, she was scared about it and was very vigilant about anyone who approached her. Then, she told her father about the experience, and he offered her a screwdriver to carry around to protect herself from male predators.
