Sociopath Community

Is there a special observer in your life or were you just searching for material to write with

I have been somewhat, a bit of a stalker magnet at different times of my life. One such stalker followed me for 6 years. That is a lengthy obsession. He infuriated me... but I am in my own right, a kind of "observer " too. I wanted to understand the inside of his mind. People are puzzles and I dearly love puzzles. But I make the mistake of getting into the wrong heads sometimes.  And though instinctually I want to run away, I'm also drawn to the flames like a moth. My obsession is taking apart more complex minds, or ones who hide things that may be sinister.  It's a dangerous dance at times, and there is a love/hate aspect to it. I don't stalk the way you do. I am a silent observer. You won't even know I'm interested. I rarely ask questions or flirt with my targets. Nothing they could possibly say about themselves could come close to being as interesting as how they behave. :)

What's wrong with interacting with your stalker? It's only bad if they are the nutty sort of "can't face rejection".

There is nothing at all wrong with it, Turncoat. :)

Then how is it being drawn to the flames like a moth? That metaphor implies the moth is burnt.

You sure it's not more like a lamp?

No. I chose the right metaphor.

What's the damage risk?

The chance that her observer, given enough time will establish a emotinal tie within her.

And what's wrong with becoming emotionally tied to someone? Why not avoid that risk in person instead of keeping a distance?

Every time that you face an emotional tie being broken you're likely to become more jaded toward it's damage. That's good, right?

If you ask me, a stalker is only worth avoiding for the risks they carry (such as harmful intent or creeper habits), not the stalking itself.

Couple of stalkers tried to kill me.
