Worried friend may be stalking me

Hi guys, I could do with some help!

I'm posting as anon because the "friend" in question also uses TSR. A good mate of mine for the last few years has in the last few months got a little creepy. First of all, they changed their uni choices to fit mine, finally changing on to the same course at the same uni. We have had nearly all lessons together and work together every weekend, as well as hang out generally, so its not suprising we have stuff in common. However, I feel this has all gone a BIT TOO FAR! This person is copying everything I do, then lying about it, until I lose my temper and they eventually confess to lying. I don't know how I can take this through uni, I'm really fed up. Also, my boyf isnt overly impressed about this, as the mate in qn in his opinion has a thing for me, which I'm not sure about. I'm in a bit of a pickle here, any ideas, oh wise users of TSR?
Commit a terrible crime and blame it on your doppelgänger .

I feel as though, if this were me being complained about, and I used TSR, I'd realize. You got pretty specific!

lol i totaly agree. Unless, maybe you want the person to realise without you actually having to tell them....clever...

Dunno wot the hell id do in that situation...confrontation might be something u want to avoid, but i think u have to in this situation. Sit the person down and say whats on your mind.....just keep all sharp objects away from him/her. lol and dont be surprised to find ur fav stuffed animal on the stove.:eek:
The "friend" probably does like you. Why don't you get your boyfriend to yell at him and say very threateningly "stay away from my girl!" That could work.

Imitation is a form of flattery.
He is obviously totaly obbsesed with you, maybe you find it anoying but from what you tell us theres no reason to belive you at any risk. Me and one of my best frineds where planning to go to the same universities as each other but in the end we decided its probably for the best if we go where we want to go most rather then makeing a sacrafice to go to the same university which would not be first choice for either of us.

he likes you. You obviously don't feel the same way but for god's sake break it to him lightly when you do!

edit: hmm if he uses TSR i'd guess he's probably going to find out if he hasnt already :biggrin:

It's not that I think he's actually stalking me, but I think its all gone too far in terms of the constant lies etc. I dont think its flattering, I think its tiresome, to be honest. We had such a huge fight about this the other day, I'm just fed up of it all.

P.S I don't think he will see because he only seems to post on one board on TSR, which I know makes me a bit horrid and sneaky but I have tried talking to him but it hasnt helped much

Hmmm, tricky one here. If you've already tried talking to him, why not let things cool off for a few days, then try having a more relaxed chat? If you can't resolve it I suggest you just steer clear of one another while at uni, after all, you'll make a load of new mates anyway. Good luck!!
Not sure best to talk to each other, then see how it goes. lf not keep ypur distance from each other.
