I'm sorry you find this entire thread triggering. Honestly everyone could be triggered by any thread in this subforum because we are all talking about relationships and communication with other people and anyone could identify with the OTHER person rather than the OP in this forum. But we are here to give support to the OP and others who have experienced what it's like to be violated by stalking.

I wonder how many people have come close to stalking at various points in their lives but do not choose to share it even anonymously for fear they'de be villified. I mus thave missed that single person you mention...
of course everyone should protect themselves from stalkers because you never know how far it might go.
You're correct that any thread can be found triggering by someone but that doesn't mean that person can't say they find it triggering either. There is always the villified 'other'.
