Thanks so much Cara! Me too. It's incredibly sad how he ended things for himself and someone he loved, but I didn't mean this post to be all morbid. It's just been one of those head-scratching "woah" full-circle experiences of life
Gotta trust those instincts for sure. I had someone I went out with a few times last year, couldn't get rid of the nagging feeling so I called it off and she definitely got a bit stalker-y with a few of the things that happened afterward. Nowhere near the level of yours and hopefully it stays that way!
It's SO good you listened to that nagging feeling early! And totally, hope it stays that way. I hate to imagine how much worse things almost certainly would've gotten if you'd ignored those feelings and just let things progress for a while.
Stalker stories - We need to get Emily to create a post of the Bunny Boilers ...once rejected, what do they really think they will accomplish? No way would I let that woman back into my life! Hope yours stays blocked and far away.
1000% agree with you, Cathy! It can be a lot harder for me to follow those gut feelings when it comes down to "nice guy, but not my guy", but thankfully, I am generally quick to acknowledge the ones about safety.
Wow. How incredibly frightening. Glad you trusted your instincts Emily!

Gut feelings need to be acknowledged, and I'm so happy to know you followed yours. Thank you for sharing your experience!
