YES! i have had one of those types of friends, Thankfully for me it was a girl she was really pretty and quite cute. We hung out and stuff and she would do the randomest things. Walk with me to school come over to my house and basically invite her self in. At one point i caught her going through my stuff and that's where i drew the line i told her we could be friends but she has to respect my privacy and space. Once she got the idea, she was actually really fun to be around we even dated for about 3 weeks. She moved and i haven't seen her since, but she's one of the funnest people ever and probably one of the best friends i ever had.

I had a friend who was obsessed with me once...


Unfortunately, he made the fatal mistake of falling into the "wrong gang" and was peer pressured to steal from me. That was the end of our friendship.


I still feel bad for him though. His mother was an absolute witch. She literally sent him away to an orphanage a year or two later after that incident. She didn't care about him at all.

KiddoCabbuses : I've never had the healthy kind of obsession with people. I mean, they were never obsessed with me in a good way. That must hurt when they just all of a sudden stop going around you for no reason.

klemish : My ex-friend/stalker used to steal my socks. And she would go through my things and just take it without asking and I would go to look for whatever it was she took and I wouldn't be able to find it and then when I would be at her house, I'd see it there and demand it back and she wouldn't give it back to me. That's when things just started to get weird and crazy. Who in the heck steals someone's socks? Really?

SunflowerGaming : LOL I'm sorry if this seems cruel but that made me laugh so hard. Were they like...cool looking socks? Anything that maybe made them stand out to be valuable? Or maybe she likes the smell of other peoples socks oh god the possibilities.

klemish : Haha... that's funny because I could see myself doing some of that stuff to just a good friend without actually being obsessed with them. I wouldn't just go through their things without asking, though. That's overkill. I do have a tendency to invite myself in... I'm just a really assertive person like that, though. And even then, I only get like that with people who I know are okay with it. I have to know them long enough to know they want me around.

klemish : It made me laugh too but I was also like; "What the heck? Why are you stealing my socks?" And no, they were just plain white socks. And I was like, why in the heck would you take my socks? She certainly wasn't poor, and it's not like she was lacking socks. It was extremely weird. I could see taking something more personal and of more value but socks? Come on!

Crazy Li : That's completely different, that fall more in the line of good friends letting each other borrow stuff. What she did was considered stealing.

SunflowerGaming : Lol i think everyone on this thread can agree that their are and will be some weird people. Though in my case i just asserted myself and lay down the lines and demands i deserved if i was going to be friends with this person. Can i ask exactly how long you knew this person before you realized this was happening and did they say sorry or even show signs of regret lol. If i were that person i would be quite embarassed.

Crazy Li: As for borrowing stuff as friends sometimes my judgement says no. Just because i've had problems with lending something to someone and never getting it back or them breaking it

klemish : The kinda people who are irresponsible with my stuff don't stay my friends very long. I don't let people become good friends easily. I talk to lots of people and make lots of "acquaintances" but they don't REALLY become friends unless I feel they're really trustworthy and honorable people.

Crazy Li : Ya, i know what you mean. I don't why but these days it seems like it's harder to find someone you can seriously trust and talk to. It's been awhile since i've had one of those moments where i truly felt like, A person was trustworthy and nice enough for me to actually put the time and energy into a friendship.

klemish : This link has the full story. I don't want to spam or double post it. So I'll link it for you. If I remember correctly, it was a few years if I count the time I babysat her and her younger sister when they were younger.

She never did say sorry. I urge you to take the time to read that post. It have all the details of how it started and how far it went. After you read it, if you have anymore questions, feel free to ask me.

SunflowerGaming : Alright. My best geuss is....Do you know the word when a baby see's something for the first time and immedietley gets attached? So after reading the post in that link. I can only assume it was something along the lines where she had spent so much time with you that maybe she felt safer or more comfortable around you. But that's still doesn't explain the stealing of socks. But you don't have a problem with her anymore so i geuss trying to figure this weird issue out is invaild lol. But still funny none the less.

I don't have a friend like that and don't planning to have one like that, but my nephew is just like that. I could never do anything by myself for when I am play game he want to play with me, and when I don't let him play he make noise to make me angry. Also he follow me where ever I go expect the bathroom. I could never ditch him, and if I do he going to cry so I have to stay with him.

klemish : I would hardly compare her to an innocent baby. She is far from innocent. If anything, she is psychotic. If you read the entire story, you would agree.

Luckily, the one student I mentioned no longer seems to be obsessed with me. I don't think her lack of obsession is due to a lack of desire though, but simply a schedule that doesn't allow her to come by my room.  However, I do think I'm gaining a new little stalker.  The bad thing is that this student lives a block away from me, too.  So I worry about the appearance he might be giving.

klemish : You need to read on the term obsessed or stalker. Laying down the law doesn't mean jack to people like that. if they are obsessed with you and are stalking you, "laying down the law" doesn't do anything. If anything, it makes them even more obsessed and makes them try even more. That's when you have to get law enforcement involved. I think you're missing the point of this thread.

Singelli : Oh that's not good at all. Just be careful and watch your surroundings.

SunflowerGaming : "Missing the point of this thread". Lol when i used the term laying down the law I said to the point of my situation. Your situation is on a different level, Restraining order's do work and i suggest maybe you get one.

Yes. I think he came across my profile on this website we were both members on. He commented on my page and so I commented back and we had a little back and forth. However, some time layter, I went on his profile and noticed that he put the link up to his fb and he had a profile picture that I presumed to be of him so I requested him on fb telling him I was that user from the site.

Long story somewhat short, we talked a bit when we first got on fb, then it became more sporadic, he was kind of mean and ignored me but it didn't bother me. Layter on we spoke again and like for many hours straight. From that point on we talked much more constantly and on a daily basis. However, problems started to occur. He would get easily irritated, jealous, and was just filled with negative emotion. After a while, other problems arose and I just couldn't take it anymore. We became too different and he affected my mood too much for the worse. Eventually I decided that I needed to stop talking to him. And so I did. 

klemish : Oh, well you weren't specific on what you meant. My bad.

NotJon : Wow, sorry to hear you had to deal with that.
