I used to date this girl about nine months ago, and although it was great, she just kind of drifted away. I asked her recently why, and she said she 'hit a brick wall' and confessed to being a 'mental fuck-up'. I accepted this and moved on.
Although I discovered this week that she is now working in the same street where I live. Now don't jump to conclusions, but I stood outside her work today waiting for her to finish just so I could pretend to conveniently walk past and exchange witticisms with her and flirt outrageously. I stood by and watched her lock up as she then sprinted across the road to quickly jump on the bus that had just stopped opposite her workplace. My chance had gone.
My question however is, am I crazy stalker? Or am I just 'crazy in love'?

Yes you have the early signs of being a stalker
She ran away from you ....
Maybe you should get night vision goggles to wear in the bushes outside her house then she wont run away because she wont be able to see you |

It jut seems a bit sad to loiter just to speak to her. Why not just call her. Or text her. Or speak to her. Why do you need to act all weird and pretend to bump in to her. It's a bit creepy |

"OP, why?
Because I never stopped fancying her."
If that was a suitable reason, i'd have to life my life in a number of bus stations/travel interchanges, not to mention numerous bus stops in between. Or shops. Or beaches. |

Soooo, she tells you she's slightly unstable, and all you can think is, I'll dupe her into a "chance meeting" because I really want to give her one?? |

She definitely didn't see me. She sprinted because she saw the bus and didn't want to miss it. |

I asked her about a month ago if she would ever consider seeing me again for a no-strings drink, she said yes (availability and money permitting). She also said 'never say never' regarding the future.
Bottom line is, she knows how I feel, she knows I'm keen, and we still keep in contact. It's just a case of taking it slow and not overstepping the mark maybe.
I don't know, I'm a lovesick puppy |

this..
if she is keen she will be in touch and if your still waiting after a month its either that she has forgotten, is too busy or is not interested..
maybe text her or something..?
certainly less weird than your behaviour and you will know either way.. |

Done that before, but she was always too busy (she only just recently moved house) and stressed with financial problems, so I don't wanna tread on her toes. |

thats what you think... but I wouldn't call your opening post "normal" behaviour....
I am betting if you had been on the other end of the behaviour you are talking about.... I don't think you would be looking at it the same way
p.s i don't think many people you are trying to attract as going to be impressed by that behaviour either.... |

You make it sound so predatory. I only waited for her to finish work so I could talk to her. Yes it's weird, yes it's odd, but I wasn't planning on sexually assaulting her. Although I was wearing black gloves and a long overcoat, that probably didn't help. |

Have you thought about becoming a bus driver?
You could then ask for her route and see her every day! Plus it would look like a random chance encounter!
Much easier than loitering outside her workplace!

I would have said there was nothing wrong with what you did from your first post...I am guessing there must be many people about who have "planned" to be in the same place as an ex while hoping to bump into them........but then you carried on and said you are in contact and she keeps making excuses not to meet up for a drink.
She sounds like she is sending you a message to me |

There's your answer right there.
Tomorrow, get on the bus at the stop before, with a load of your friends, so the only free seat is next to you, and pay the bus driver to say "No standing"
Don't forget to act all nonchalant like
You're welcome

Have you not considered starting a profile on her behalf, messaging each other at frequent interevals with a growing need and lust for each other and then printing her side off and shoving it through her works letterbox, adding a handwritten noteto the effect of "do you remember all of this, is it not time to act on it?"
Better get a mate to do the handwriting just in case she's on holiday that week. |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I was reading an article about stalking today.
OP, your type of stalking is the good old-fashioned sort. The modern stalker does it with a glass of wine in one hand the handheld device in the other.
The 2012 Cyberpsychology, Behaviour and Social Networking study found that stalking an ex on Facebook is linked with "greater current distress over the breakup, more negative feelings, more sexual desire, more longing for the ex-partner and lower personal growth." Experts say that Facebook can prolong post-breakup pain, while delaying emotional recovery.
So, is she on your Facebook? If you you may not be a love lorn puppy after all.

We are indeed Facebook friends, but she rarely posts and I rarely stalk (on Facebook, that is). |

Nah if you was really a stalker or weird you wouldnt even be asking this question, the very fact you have asked means your well balanced but just did a spur of the moment stupid thing and deep down you know you was wrong

This is how I read what you write. "...and although it was great, she just kind of drifted away. I asked her recently why, and she said she 'hit a brick wall' and confessed to being a 'mental fuck-up'. I accepted this and moved on"
"...she knows how I feel, she knows I'm keen, and we still keep in contact. It's just a case of taking it slow and not overstepping the mark maybe.
... she was always too busy (she only just recently moved house) and stressed with financial problems..."
"She also said 'never say never' regarding the future."
"We are indeed Facebook friends, but she rarely posts ..."
AW, you have to let her go, she is not interested in you.

Sounds like you may not have moved on.
"she knows how I feel, she knows I'm keen, and we still keep in contact."
Not moving on...
" It's just a case of taking it slow and not overstepping the mark maybe."
Still holding on...
"... she was always too busy (she only just recently moved house) and stressed with financial problems..."
Moved on perhaps?
"She also said 'never say never' regarding the future.
"
Now either she is keeping you dangling as a back up plan, or she is trying not to hurt your feelings. If she wanted to sustain a relationship with you, you would still be in one. "Its not you, its me" springs to mind.
Steer clear as you run the risk of reading too much into it. You'll convince yourself you have seen signs that aren't there and you will cross the line.

To me it's the kind of scenario I would have adopted around the ages 19-21, which was pre mobile phone & social media (yes I am that old!).....a well planned 'chance meeting' to casually bump into an ex just to see if our eyes would meet across a crowded street etc etc etc....
I have to say back then it did work but that was because there was no other way to contact me as he'd lost my landline number and we were ex-directory
Nowadays I believe if someone doesn't want to contact you there generally is a reason for it.......

I knew a man that lived in a shared house. He fell in love with one of his housemates, followed her around, bought her presents. She wasn't interested. Told him to get lost. Rebuked all his advances, pushed him down a short flight of stairs...
They ended up married, had four kids - I'm the youngest of the four.
Sometimes - 'stalking' pays off.
It's just knowing when to draw the line

Don't really know, to be honest. She's not one for opening up. I practically gave her a 'get out of jail free' card a few weeks ago by saying "Look, if you genuinely aren't interested in me and you wanna cut off all contact, just tell me now and I can have that closure then", so I left the door wide open for her, but she still insisted everything was fine. |

My opinion in what you did? I'd have done the same (covers head) but I also would have been a bit worried about how it looked. I think you feel she's confused & if it was a seemingly random meet there'd be no pressure and she'd realise she likes you enough to date you again.
I'd like to say I wouldn't do it just once more, but....!

These things have a way of coming out. When it does it goes one of two ways: she walks away from what looks like creepy manipulative behaviour or she has fallen in love and decides it's sweet (until things go wrong and s\he falls out of love).

I personally wouldn't do that no matter how I felt, but it's your feelings. Though perhaps you're not considering hers? If she was interested enough she'd be happy to meet you etc.
Does she know you swing / look to meet others? |

"
Seriously, I do not think of sex when I think of her. I did initially when we first started dating, but it's different now.."
OMG you haven't told her that have you? While I'm pretty sure women don't like being thought of as sex-objects, they equally get a tad disappointed to be told "Actually, you don't turn me on at all"
(In truth I know nothing about women)

"I'm ever so surprised by some of the responses in here!! I know I've only been here 3 months & people can judge harshly at times but goodness me!
My opinion in what you did? I'd have done the same (covers head) but I also would have been a bit worried about how it looked. I think you feel she's confused & if it was a seemingly random meet there'd be no pressure and she'd realise she likes you enough to date you again.
I'd like to say I wouldn't do it just once more, but....!
Does she know you live there, or have you moved recently? x
These things have a way of coming out. When it does it goes one of two ways: she walks away from what looks like creepy manipulative behaviour or she has fallen in love and decides it's sweet (until things go wrong and s\he falls out of love).
Yes I definitely agree it could go both ways, at least he'd know either way. x

She does know where I live, she came to my house when we dated last year. The thing I want to make clear to everybody here is that I'm not stupid, I know she doesn't see me the same way any more, I just wanna get back in touch with her again for my own selfish reasons. I enjoy her company and I like looking at her face, that's it. |

He does know, he just doesn't want to believe and accept she's not interested enough to reciprocate his feelings. For whatever reason she hasn't gone to the stage of telling him to cease and desist all communication but she may have reasons for not doing so, including worrying what sort of behaviour that might draw from him.
OP, I'm not saying you are dangerous or that she may fear you - I am using it as an example of why she may be leaving things very casual, based on personal experience. |

And she has her own selfish reasons for not being in touch. Why are your reasons so paramount that you disregard hers? THAT is stalker thinking.

How am I disregarding her? She's happily going about her life doing whatever she wants to do. I'm not interfering or getting in the way of that. When we do speak, it's sporadically at best and when I saw her yesterday it was the first time in nine months. |

Have a think about what you have just written, couple it with hanging around her place of work and then consider what you would say to a friend doing this or if it was a woman doing this to you.

PS: I am normal.
thats what you think... but I wouldn't call your opening post "normal" behaviour....
I am betting if you had been on the other end of the behaviour you are talking about.... I don't think you would be looking at it the same way
p.s i don't think many people you are trying to attract as going to be impressed by that behaviour either....
You make it sound so predatory. I only waited for her to finish work so I could talk to her. Yes it's weird, yes it's odd, but I wasn't planning on sexually assaulting her. Although I was wearing black gloves and a long overcoat, that probably didn't help.
Ditch the creepy look and she might have said hello :p
clearly you have feelings for her but how does she feel about you?
Don't really know, to be honest. She's not one for opening up. I practically gave her a 'get out of jail free' card a few weeks ago by saying "Look, if you genuinely aren't interested in me and you wanna cut off all contact, just tell me now and I can have that closure then", so I left the door wide open for her, but she still insisted everything was fine."
If that's the case then why don't you just message her and ask her straight up. Because I've have this problem now :/ |

"I asked her about a month ago if she would ever consider seeing me again for a no-strings drink, she said yes (availability and money permitting). She also said 'never say never' regarding the future.
Bottom line is, she knows how I feel, she knows I'm keen, and we still keep in contact. It's just a case of taking it slow and not overstepping the mark maybe.
I don't know, I'm a lovesick puppy "
Then it is time for a new tactic, she knows the score, so forget her and move on with your life. your closeness is preventing her from missing you and deciding she wants you, so go find someone else while you are doing that she may decide to get in touch, even if she doesn't you will maybe find someone else. Win Win situation. |

Great advice mate, occupy yourself with someone else until she comes knocking, then let the other one go, or keep both?

I know women can be confusing but really, if she wanted to be with you, she'd be with you. If she wanted to be friends with you, she'd act like your friend. If she wanted your company, she'd try to spend time with you.
If she doesn't do those things and you persist in trying to make it happen I'm not sure it's stalker behaviour but it feels a wee bit pathetic, and time to move on. |

Because it's an opinion based on one word from an entire write-up which was ignored. |

maybe the summary of the write up is selfish, and that word sums it up. |

read it all - still comes across as selfish - you wrote the word - i picked it out but in the context of the whole sentence - ok i could have said that the phrase - '' i just wanna get back in touch with her again for my own selfish reasons'' says it all - but its word selfish that gives the tilt to the whole thing |

It doesn't really work like that...
And some sensible points have been made (e.g. by moi) it's just a shame they've been ignored in favour of picking a fight with some others. |

Personally..I would have just straight up chatted..texted..whatever.
Having said that...
...some of the replies here imply that OP should be hanging from his fucking neck.
It's not my kind of approach but then I'm also not the OP to be fair. |

She doesn't officially have mental health problems, she meant that she's fucked up in the head when it comes to commitment and relationships, etc. This has been blown way out of proportion. |
