Faremax: Travel Forums

I had a stalker while riding a bus. It was someone who just wouldn't stop looking at me the whole entire trip. I was nervous as heck because I thought he was going to pull me in the bathroom or something and kill me. Has anyone ever had that problem with another passenger before?

Stalkers are anywhere for me especially if I wear sexy clothes during my travel. But this kind of stalkers are a little bit cool. Unlike stalkers who's always at your back who's not interested in you but to the jewelries you're wearing. That makes me nervous. 

Girl anyone who is in my personal space that I don't know and won't mind his business is a stalker to me. If you are making me feel uncomfortable with your pursuits then thats a stalker to me. Whether you want me or my jewlery.

Of course, it's always a case to case basis. And it depends to place where you're standing of. When I was in the province, I remembered one of my stalker. He annoyed me so much and when my brother investigated about him. He revealed that he simply wanted to know and be friend with me. Thank's for the good intention.

I haven't had such an experience whilst travelling but I have made a few long lasting friendships. My only experience with a stalker was a kid at school who would ride on his bike up and down the hill in front of my house for hours at a time. He lived seven miles away so there was no excuse. He even followed me to cadets and would watch whilst I gave drill and was a total pervert. A friend dealt with him....

I've seen a terrible stalker from movies where they ended up murdering other people. Do you think it sometimes happen in real life?

Yes, of course. Where do you think that movies get their inspiration from? We heard about it from time to time in news papers and on the TV news, about a star or political figure being killed or an attempt being made on their life. Happens to regular Joes too.

I've not had a stalker on a bus, but I did have a stalker online once - he was part of a group I was a member of, I went to a real-life group meetup, and he aquired my personal details from the organiser of the meet up, and was calling me for ages.  I ended up having to change my phone number.

Did you say anything to the guy on the bus?  Or tell the driver or anything?

Yes, I have had that happen and I have complained to the bus driver.  But yes, it is a very scary occassion when something like this happens.  It is very un-nerving.  What I do is always bring a book with me to read and never make eye contact with others (or very little as possible).  This generally works for me.  It is sad that this has to happen.

On the other hand, I have sat down with strangers and have had a great trip.  But the book idea always works for me.
