I’ve noticed something strange in the past few days while coming home; it feels like the same type is watching me from a certain distance. Maybe I’m being paranoid, but there’s a weird feeling inside me. Should I call the police directly, or should I observe for a day or two? Has anyone ever experienced something like this?
I had a similar experience last year as well; someone was constantly behind me while I was walking home from the metro. At first, I thought it was paranoia, but when I noticed it happening for three days in a row, I really got scared. I changed my route right away and called a friend, and then I saw that the guy went in a different direction. Don’t go home alone; definitely let someone know.
I think waiting another 1-2 days is risky, call the police directly. If you know the license plate or some identifying thing, take note of it. If your suspicions are correct, your safety is more important.
So maybe the guy isn’t to blame? I mean, you might just be on the road at the same times all the time and all that. Calling the police right away seems a bit unfair to me; I would say to make sure first.
Such situations are really unsettling, you’re right. If the same person is watching you closely again in a few days, it makes sense to report the situation to the police. But beforehand, you might consider trying a different route or thinking about going home with a friend, that way the behavior will become clearer.
I should also mention that this person usually appears on the same street in the evenings. They have short hair and look to be in their 30s. Maybe we just keep running into each other, but I really feel uneasy. Still, I don’t have any evidence to tell the police about.
I feel like I know you from somewhere. Maybe you’ve crossed paths in a work environment or around school. It could also be just a direct admiration. But be careful, it could turn out that you’re dealing with someone untrustworthy ![]()
Any behavior that disturbs you like this, no matter who it’s coming from, is wrong. They have no right to make you feel uncomfortable. Whatever this guy’s motivation is, make your boundaries clear. If necessary, seek help from the police or your friends, don’t feel alone.
