I had a gay stalker today

[Heep]

Today was going to be another lazy day around the house, but I looked outside and it was absolutely gorgeous out, for the first time in quite a while. So, I decided to go for a drive, and whilst driving, decided to stop in at a few parks.

Everything is great. I was merrily walking through a beautiful park on a beautiful day, and a good looking girl with a big, playful dog just gave me a smile. Even better, I'd just come across the toilets - I'd been needing to go quite badly. I walk in, and there's this middle-aged guy in there, who looked over at me as I was walking in. So, as standard protocol, I give him half of a "hey, sorry, I'll just be going down to the other end of the bathroom right now" nod, then proceed to go down to the other end of the bathroom. I get to the sink just as he's finishing washing his hands, and then I wash my hands - still nothing unusual. However, he strangely waited for me to leave the bathroom first - a little odd, but I thought little of it.

I continued on up the walkway, and he was behind me. Still nothing unusual, he's just out for a walk around the park as well, I presumed. I got to a lookout point and stopped to take in the wonderful view - that's when I noticed he stopped a few metres back and was staring at me...

I continued along the walkway, with him resuming the following. Got to an old lighthouse-keeper's cottage, and I noticed there was a little storyboard about it. So, I figured, I'll stop here and read this (even though I didn't care about it) and hopefully he'll just pass on by. Pass on by he did, but then I saw out of the corner of my eye that he'd just walked down to a sort of vista point and stopped there - regular behaviour for someone who wants to take in the view. I stand around, slowly reading the storyboard, hoping he'll be on his way soon, but when I finished reading, I swung around and noticed he wasn't taking in the view of the harbour, he was still staring straight at me. NOW I'm freaked out.

I start back the way I came, around the cottage, and I noticed from the corner of my eye, he took up following me again. I quickly stepped out of his line of sight and dashed around the back of the building, and up a secondary path - lost him. Phew. Not risking stopping again, I continued on up this path (which turned out to be a shortcut to a further point along the walkway), then swung back down the walkway back towards the cottage. I slowly peeked around the bushes to make sure he wasn't still there, and the coast was clear. By now I'd given up enjoying the park, I just wanted to beeline back to the car and leave. So, I start heading back the walkway - only the one way back - and after a couple hundred metres, he's standing at some lookout point, once again staring at me. I purposefully walk on past without giving him a glance, but I can hear he's started to follow me again.

I continue on backtracking on the walkway, past the bathrooms, until I get back to sort of a main courtyard area, and thank heavens, the chick with the dog is still there. I strolled up and muttered "pretend you know me", then sat down beside her and started to pet the dog while we had a bit of small talk. Unbelievably, it worked! The guy stopped looking at me and started walking back towards the bathrooms. When he was gone I thanked the girl and told her why I'd just done that - she seemed a bit surprised about my predicament, but was very understanding and said she was glad she could help.

Made it back to my car, and from there, to home, just fine. I just laugh about it now but man I was freaked out! I'm never going back to that park again!

Haha I knew that would be the first question to answer....

I'm ashamed to say, no, and that I wish I had, but I couldn't think about anything but getting out of that park as fast as possible!

Another missed opportunity...

What about the dog?



This story is so wrong is so many ways.

You set yourself up Heep. Park bathrooms are the number one place gay guys cruise (I wouldn't know, I heard it from ______) You fill in the blank.

First, you nod at him in the bathroom, never, I repeat never do eye contact with another guy in a bathroom. If you do its likesaying, come on big guy follow me for fun times.

As for the "pretend you know me" comment to the girl, I guess Australian girls are different, here in the states, a total stranger comes up and sits next to a girl on a bench in a park and tells her "pretend you know me" is signs of a pervert or a killer, and the girl would sic their dog on you like flies on crap.

Oh btw Heep, look out your window, your friend the stalker, hes back.

TS out (sending Heep some mace)
