These individuals play the victim. They may rely on you as the center of the universe. They may think you are more emotionally invested than you really are and may not have a lot of friends or family. Could you be setting yourself up to be stalked? Here's what to look for...You just met the person, and he or she begins blowing up your phone or flooding your inbox. He/she may make repeated attempts to get in touch with you. The person may try to latch on to you, becoming controlling or emotional if you want to spend time with others. If that person's behavior makes you feel uneasy, it's time to take action. Try to pull away gradually and put some distance between yourself and that person. Be careful not to alienate him or her - you don't want to set the person off. Attempt to be firm but clear. Upon realizing you have a stalker situation, tell everybody you know, including law enforcement. The sooner, the better. Don't wait until the situation escalates to take steps.
