The Stalker
Saturday, February 20. Nothing… no new emails from Mr. Wonderful. I went on with my activities. I was able to completely forget about it. That night I went out with friends. It was still early when I got back home. Before going to bed I went to see if I had received an email. I thought that he may have read the email, and he hadn’t had the time to write back. All that sounded great in my head until I tried to look at his profile one more time and I was denied access. WHAT?! DENIED? Who does he think he is? Why would he block me? Then I remember that I look at his profile like a thousand times… and he knew it… somehow. OMG! He thinks I’m a crazy stalker. I was so embarrassed and upset. I was rejected. I figured out how to block someone from accessing my profile and I blocked Mr. Wonderful. How does it feel now? Hum! I abruptly closed my computer as it was the computer's fault I was blocked. I put it aside and walked to the kitchen to get a glass of water. I was not only upset with Mr. Wonderful for blocking me, but also upset with myself for being so silly. Why did I have to access his profile so many times? Couldn’t I remember the information in it? I drank my water and walked back to my room. I wondered why didn’t he have the courtesy of writing an email and just say no thank you. At that moment I wanted to send a note to the entire online community asking to be considerate. Even the site has automatic polite rejection emails that can be sent to the people you are not interested in. Then I remembered that people will not always behave the way you expect them to. I only had control on what I do. I looked at the computer with a dilemma in my mind, should I or shouldn’t I? I SHOULD! I went back on the site and removed the block on Mr. Wonderful. I was not going to do to him what he did to me. I didn’t want him to experience what I just did. It didn’t matter that I thought he was never going to access my profile again. He blocked me, he was not interested. With a disappointed heart I closed my computer and went to bed.
