Now I'm not quite self centered enough to assume "oh I'm pretty/interesting enough where a guy would definitely stalk me as retribution for rejecting him" but it is definitely a weird enough situation that it's making me feel creeped out

The weirdest thing was just the way he walked the neighborhood. Like it wasn't just "oh passing through here to get somewhere"

So the message I've gotten from this is: my friends are okay with spending time around me but only if it's in a group setting. Which, ouch
