stalk verb : to follow (an animal or person that you are hunting or trying to capture) by moving slowly and quietly
: to follow, watch, and bother (someone) constantly in a way that is frightening, dangerous, etc.
creepy adjective : strange or scary : causing people to feel nervous and afraid
by virtue of definition, stalking and creepy are not positive attributes.
there is no harm in expressing interest in an individual whether met online or irl....the extent of the pursuit in an uninterested party is where the moral and possibly legal consequences begin to accrue.
