Stalked - or just being oversensitive?

[Carpe Coma]

Carpe Coma, the guy lives in the towerblock across the road. He specifically mentioned that he lives on the 13th floor and that he has been watching me. It was the comment about being watched that freaked me out, more than anything.

See, that is critical information which was left out of the original post. Now if I did see someone that I was interested in, would I watch them for a while? Probably. Not in any peeping tom sort of way, but for the free information. Would I mention that to the person? Never.

He watches when I leave in the morning and waits for me to walk past. He is not just running into me as a neighbour might. I hope I am not being paranoid, and that is what I was worried about, hence the plea for advice.

Here is where we reach a point of stupid social rules; if someone is perceived to have gone out of their way to meet someone they are automatically 'creepy'. However, we then turn around and bemoan how hard it is to find someone. So any meeting which isn't totally random is 'bad' which is so mind numbingly asinine that it defies further elucidation.

Is he socially competent? Doesn't seem like it. Is he dangerous? Probably not. Do you have to entertain him if you don't want to? No, just tell him "no" and buy curtains.
