  • Alice Ruggles lived in Gateshead, England, and had broken up with boyfriend Harry Dhillon. Harry Dhillon did not take the break up well. Texts, emails, voicemails graduated to hacking and stalking her at home. This then led to an ultimately horrific and tragic ending.

    Will never forget my mothers words when I was young and naive. When a man abuses you and come back to apologies with tears running down his face that you have to forgive and forget, because he loves you and cannot live without you...as soon as you see tears, run as hard as you can. He wasn't crying when he was hitting you so don't believe his tears when you are leaving him. He is just crying because there is no one to control when you leaves him. Thanks for the another heartfelt story Mike.

      So, she basically told you to be unforgiving because... tears? odds are they haven't changed and would still be abusive, of course, but why tears of all things?

      Also, they stick flowers and chocolate out like magic charms to make you submit, whether you like those things or not, because GOOD guys bring FLOWERS and Chocolates! Even while they are violating your privacy and coercing you, demanding interaction entirely without your consent, they think this PROVES they are 'sorry' and 'will be good'... and so you have to do what they want It shows a complete misunderstanding of what BEING A GOOD (person, friend, man, whatever) actually means-- trying to compel you against your will by performance of these culturally coded 'romantic' behaviors, and then, if you don't respond as their script dictates, they get angry and call you names. And the *worst* is when you get a cop who SNEERS and says so what's YOUR problem, you're complaining about CHOCOLATES? with obvious identification with the 'poor guy' who is supposedly 'trying so hard' to win you back, so what kind of cold mean b*ch are you? Cops in the States, statistically, are the most likely to be domestic abusers and very often view any amount of coercive behavior to MAKE a woman 'belong' to you as perfectly justified, even admirable proof of how MUCH he 'loves' you. (Gah, my own mother told me once that a boyfriend being extremely jealous was a compliment; her psychosocial orientation vis-a-vis gender and love was extremely unhealthy.)

    I was kidnapped by a guy when I was in college, 18, on a first date. I finally convinced him to take me home so I could grab medicine. This was a lie that I believe saved my life. I told the college and ironically the police station for the town was in the building of the school. They took a report. Told me there wasn't much else they could do. The school took him out of the one class we had together. He sat outside my home all day everyday for weeks. Then he went away. I was terrified and felt alone. 2 years later at a concert he was 2 rows behind me. I had a panic attack and left. I've never seen him since it's been 10 yrs. We need the police to take us more seriously. We need better protection. We need someone to care. Bless this poor girl and her family. Thanks for shedding light on this one Mike. Love ya! ❤️

      I was also in college, maybe 21 or 22 at the time, when I had to partner up with a classmate on a graded project. I invited him to my apartment because he had loud family over. He brought a 12 pack of pepsi and a jug of whiskey. He drank at least a pint of whiskey with two pepsi's within an hour, and started professing his undying love. We had only started talking as classmates that week. I asked him to leave, and that I wasn't interested, but he wouldn't. I then switched it up by saying something like, "tell me about how you know so soon that we are meant to be together?" When he started rambling, I interrupted him and said I had to take my elderly dog out for a walk, and slipped my cell in my back pocket. From the grass outside, where the whole building could hear me, I yelled at him to get out of my apartment before I called the cops. He left. I told the professor and the counselors at the school and they removed him from the class and threatened him with expulsion if he spoke to me again.
      It wasn't a kidnapping exactly, but I was definitely taken hostage for what felt like an eternity. Thankfully he got himself wasted pretty quickly and I knew I could pretend like everything was still cool long enough for me to get outside with my dog.
      When I was 19 or 20 I had another similar situation with another science project and another guy who used the study time to try to talk me into sleeping with him. I shut him down really quickly and threatened to tell the professor if it happened again and he backed off. I should have turned him in, but didn't. I was pretty naive at the time and didn't realize how fucked up that was. I was prepared the next time with the next person.
      I'm glad you got away and I'm sorry you were traumatized again seeing him at the concert later. You are not alone, and you are applauded for your bravery.

This happened back when I lived in India. I'm so glad I got out of that safely. I'm sure the police would've completely dismissed the case because it was relationship between two men.

The only reason I got out of my situation was that, after beating me up and locking me in for five days, he couldnt get the drugs he needed because he had been cut off for beating me up. He eventually told me that I had to go and score for him and when I got out I phoned the guy I was supposed to see and his girlfriend (The real reason he had been cut off) answered and she came and picked me up and took me to my folks house. I will be forever grateful to that girl, Mandy, I believe her name was, as I truly believed I wouldnt get out of that alive. If she hadnt told her boyfriend to cut him off, I dont think I would have got out. Not everyone in the drug world are bad people, some are really good people who have just got into bad situations. I think they should name and shame these people as well as putting them on a register because it seems to me these situations nearly always end badly.

      After a particularly heinous gang attack on a young woman coming home on a bus after a movie, enough outrage finally hit the streets in India.
      Of the six on the bus, one was her boyfriend who was thoroughly beaten and gotten out of the way--- even the bus driver took part in the desecration.
      After major protests in New Delhi and surrounding areas,
      F I N A L L Y , new rape laws were on the books.
      India is a patriarchal society however, and I doubt procedures have changed "that much" .

There I confronted her and had a 5 minute heated debate where she accused me of stalking her and she said how she was scared I would harm her and potentially take her life. I said I would not and I left and drove the 2 and a half hours all the way back to Edinburgh. Incredibly, unbeknownst to me, just 5 min after leaving Alice alone, totally unharmed and absolutely, definitely NOT bleeding in any way, somebody else snuck into her home and murdered her! I mean, coincidence or what!"

      That creepy demand they make, they think it sounds so REASONABLE, how could you refuse to give him ANSWERS? It means they are going to presume to reject your reasons for breaking up or saying No, and tell you your reasons aren't GOOD enough, so you have to change your mind, since they have COUNTER-arguments to your answers! See, they assume they have the RIGHT to own you unless you JUSTIFY your choices TO THEM, and of course, no reason of yours will ever seem sufficient to them. They will only use the opportunity to batter you with their insistence you HAVE to submit; if your reason is the cheating, they swear they won't do it again! and think voila, fixed, you can't say No now! No matter what you tell them, they will say BUT!!! and argue you're wrong, your reasons are BAD, you don't have a REAL reason, so you can't leave. It's just one of the coercive modes, along with Perform Fake Good Guy Romance Gestures, Pretend Sorry, Threaten You, Promise To Be Good, Revenge Porn, Hurt You (or your pets or loved ones) to Make You Obey, and eventually, of course, kill you rather than lose the "Who Gets To Control Your Life" death-struggle.

The police wouldn't get involved until he set her car on fire in her driveway and was discovered a few days later trying to do the same thing to her house.

You are not alone and you are not a bad person for leaving, you can't help them and you need to save yourself. It doesn't make you selfish, it keeps you alive.

    I thought my stalking situation was bad but this utterly terrifying. I truly don’t understand why we have to beg, plead and face our monsters or be harmed by our monsters to take us reporting stalking seriously !
