Today, an old friend and I reconnected. Everything was going fine until he threatened to visit me at work. I didn't know he knew my place of employment, so I replied, "Do you know where I live too?" He answered, "Would you hate me if I did?" FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Same thing different taste
Today, I was driving and someone was following me across the city and wouldn't let up, so I drove past my house, thinking it was a stalker. Eventually I lost them on the highway. It wasn't until I'd gotten back home that I remembered that my 'stalker' was a coworker I'd invited over for lunch. FML
Today, I was meeting my husband's old friends at his 20 year high school reunion. He introduced me as his 'friend from work' to his ex girlfriend. FML
Close encounter
Today, a creep called me out in the street and asked me why I was in that part of that street, because he "knows " I live in another part of the street, and he found it "odd" that I was there. He was smiling all that time too. FML
That Netflix show
Today, I was getting catcalled downtown by a guy I've never seen before. Then he told me he knows where I live, and accurately described my apartment while he followed me for 2 blocks. FML
Today, I went to the store and ran into an old friend that I hadn't seen in years. We chatted a little, and just as I was leaving he grabbed his mobile phone. Later, I added him on Facebook. Turns out the last thing he posted was a picture of my back saying: "Look who got even fatter." FML
Today, I ran into an old friend from college on the bus to work. Having not seen each other in over 10 years, we spent a good 15 minutes talking about our lives after college. At the end, he asked me what my name was. FML
Making new friends
Today, my coworker came to my desk, so I greeted him with a smile, and said, "Hello friend." He then told me that we are not friends, and that he hates when I say that. Oh, OK, sorry for trying to be nice. FML
Manager of the year
Today, I received a phone call from my old boss asking me why I wasn't at work, to which I responded, "Because you fired me yesterday." He didn't say anything, and hung up. FML
Warning
Today, I got a Facebook message from a cute guy I used to work with. He admitted to liking me, and when I asked why we never hung out, he told me that my dad, his boss at the time, threatened every guy I have ever worked with. FML
Useful and used
Today, someone I used to know got in touch with me, after I hadn't heard from him in years. He insisted that we met up as soon as possible, and wanted me to go to his house that afternoon. I spent the afternoon repairing his computer. Since then, no news. FML

Wow, that must feel a bit creepy. Perhaps he's been stalking you. I would say you should run like hell, and run far

@ 47 so now we know she lives in Texas outside a city but not on a main road. It's not like she's sent us her post code and a google map reference lol Texas is massive - even knowing the city is hardly going to help

Her profile gives her name, City and birthdate, it wouldn't be hard to figure out where and who she is from that information, a quick google search could give you a starting point, However her little stalker friend is still creepy given I believe her about her Facebook privacy because mine is set the same I'd print out evidence of the convo and keep a record of all future convos

That is creepy :( All the same, the downvoteds have a point, perhaps a little less personal information is best. It shouldn't matter but posting things under your real name isn't always the best idea. Delete and block on Facebook, make sure everything is friends only - including photo albums, they often are friends of friends, and likely he'll try adding your friends, you're bound to have some who accept anyone. If needed also trim your friends list and be careful of who you add, a lot try false accounts. The less access he gets, the more likely he gives up. Don't respond to anything, just ignore him and document. Long post I know, but while hopefully the creep stops now, I think by responses in hardly alone in worrying for you stranger :)

It's easy to find people on the website pipl. That could've been his "someone."

If hes a friend from high school maybe he knows others that know you. I still dont know whats so bad about someone from high school knowing where you work or live. Everytime I meet someone from high school they give me the story on everybody they know. Who's married to whom, who divorced whom, who works where, whos out of work. Who's a drunk, Who's a pot head. Who had children. Who moved away. People know. When you talk to your parents they talk to their friends, who are your friends parents. If this was a total stranger I'd get it but its someone you know and called a freind.
