to say stalking is an obsessive behaviour maybe over the top would you call the little lady across the street a stalker if everytime you go out of your house you notice her watching you, couldn't it be coincidence? but if it was a dirty looking man probably with a beard it would be easier to assign the title of a stalker. when do you draw the line between being a stalker and being considerate.
if your father or mother was always asking where you are going checking your phone sometimes even meeting or following you, you wouldn't call them a stalker just say they are concerned about your welfare. isn't it just as bad calling someone a stalker who actually isn't.
i'm not saying stalking is write but people need to open their eyes about what stalking is usually if not a sexual stalking the person is just following the other person because they are intrested in them. if we all looked out for each other like this the world would be a better place.
