Stalker

[loudshirts04]

A former student has stalked me off and on for years. I taught a class at a Confucian temple for the community. One student was so shy she couldn't even say her own name at first. Gradually she became used to me and would talk. When I finished the term, she followed me to the cram school where I taught. But that was expensive and she quit. Somehow she got my phone number and texted me several times asking me out. I never went anywhere with her. I just now have returned to Taiwan from two years in the states. Just before I returned, she called my old cell phone number (kept by my wife) and asked when I would return. What can I do about this stalker.

Be direct.

Tell her that your wife doesn't allow you to have any stalkers . . . erm, I mean, female friends.

This stalking doesn't sound really bad. Just ignore her calls, she'll give up after a while. Would she have any way of finding out where you are living (like mutual friends ?). If not then you really haven't got any worries.

How about getting a new phone number?

I know it may sounds obvious... but have you said no to her? Sometimes they (stalkers) think a no means maybe.. You did not write details so it's hard to say anything on the topic.

Second thought: running away is not an option. Cutting her off is.

Have a nice day.

That's what I thought lol. Seems like the pretty obvious solution?
