    best advice i’ve ever received for living alone:
    if you’re walking/running a lot, or at odd hours; big dog. it’s more intimidating.
    if you’re not home often, or a heavy sleeper; small dog. they’re more likely bark a lot and cause a ruckus.
    most thief/attackers are very concerned with being inconspicuous and will avoid a scene!
    also, a generic “home protected” sticker is a better detergent, putting the logo ones the companies give you for advertisement just tells a burglar how to turn off your specific system and how long they have!
    and get to know your neighbors! be involved in the community, so if anyone tries to slip in or out, there is no possible way to write off, “could be a boyfriend/moving in/service,” and they’re more likely to take a better look and get some kind of description on them!

      My brother and several of my close family friends are prison guards, and after I bought my place and was living alone for a month I adopted my shepherd husky cross, and when I told them they all nodded and said ‘great call’. When I asked why, they said ‘directly from the mouth of babes - all of the inmates say ‘why the f*ck would I go to the house with a dog when two houses over they don’t have one? Makes no sense.’’
      They said it’s hands down the biggest deterrent, and criminals hate dogs especially because they sense that they’re up to no good and are rarely fans.
      Definitely get a dog if you can, the unconditional love is enough but the protection is the cherry on top.

    Just a tip for living alone that my dad taught me! Get the building manager, your dad, landlord, a handy friend or do it yourself, but replace the screws in your door plate! The standard ones are really short so it’s easy to kick the door in, if you replace it with a long screw that goes into the door frame it’ll be way harder to kick in if someone tries to break into your place! ❤️ also put a piece of wood in the window frame to prevent the window from being able to be opened all the way! And if you have a patio door put a piece of wood in the track between the door and the frame so it can’t be opened!

    • @4everMrsB

    Restraining orders are basically “we will shake our finger at them WHEN they end up hurting you”. Then the system says “we didn’t see it coming”. Also, we had a no contact order and they gave our abuser our home address and work to inform him of the place he had to stay away from…

      My ex got out of prison ( he was in for violent things he did to me then attempted escape.) They didn't notify me like they were supposed to. He was on house arrest. Took off the box. Came to where I was at 1 am with a gun. He's not allowed to have fired arms ever!!! I called police. They pulled him over outside my place. Called his probation officer who said have him report to them on Monday morning. To just go to the address he's assigned to. ????? Wtf? Seriously he's already tried to off me, and after doing years for it has come after me with a weapon and you pat him on the head and send him on his way. The restraining order is useless unless they end you.

    when i was 12 years old i took a self defense class and it was incredibly eye opening. we watched videos from real people who had survived very scary situations and also learned how best to defend ourselves as well as where to strike your attacker for maximum pain. this was 14 years ago for me and i still use many of the tips i was taught. like always remembering to lock your car. because if you walk away for a second someone could sneak into your backseat and hold a weapon up to you when you get back into the car. we also learned that to get the maximum effect when striking an attacker, go for three areas. kick them in the groin, punch them in the throat/nose, and worst case scenario literally scratch out their eyeballs. they also told us a dog will be a great thing to ward off intruders, but even if you don’t have a dog put up a “beware of dog” sign because most intruders want to avoid disruption and will avoid houses with animals. another fact we learned is that men tend to grab a woman’s hair when attacking her so if at all possible when being attacked try to reposition yourself so that your back never faces your attacker as they can grab your hair and overpower you. we watched a video of a woman telling a story about how a man came into her house in the middle of the night and climbed on top of her to sa her. he put his hand over her mouth and her adrenaline allowed her to bite his finger clean off. scary stuff but i honestly think most young girls should take a class like i did. it really helped me build more awareness of my surroundings as well as help to develop my intuition.

    10:17 - I agree that it could be a red flag but the boyfriend could be genuinely scared of the ex. I mean, we have no idea why they broke up and--as someone who is probably less assertive than I should be--saying no and flat out rejecting someone can be scary. Especially when their determined and hell-bent on you.

      That’s what I was thinking too, so they definitely need to have a serious sit down conversation as a couple and talk about it. They need to explain how that makes them uncomfortable and ask why they react that way, ask if they feel unsafe by that person, or if they’re just scared of confrontation, etc. They also need to agree with a way on how to handle it.

    Wow this episode unlocked a memory for me. I was almost hit by a car because of a crazy ex.
    I had just graduated high school, it was the start of summer and I started dating a guy I knew from when I was a sophomore. He was 3 years older than me and had already been out of school but we waited to date until I turned 18, just incase. He was with a girl for a few months then he broke up with her because she cheated on him.
    We finally got together a few months after they broke up. One night We went to a party then afterward we went back to his house and I stayed over. The next morning there was a knock on his bedroom window. It was his EX!! She saw me laying in bed then flipped out on him and me. She tried breaking into the house while screaming at us. She got into her car and started to drive away. I told him since she’s gone imma head home and I’ll see him later. I was walking home and I hear a car coming up behind me.. it was her!! I called my best friend who lived right down the street and have her come out for backup. His ex almost hit me with her fkin car! I ran into the field next to the street so she couldn’t hit me. I see my friend running over to me. I felt relieved at this point but His ex gets out of the car, gets in my face, and tells me to stay the fuck away from him. My friend and I both said “you aren’t together anymore you psycho bitch!” She looks like she’s about to hit me then my friend gets in front of me and like buffs herself up to let his ex know to stay back lol. I’m small and my friend was bigger than I was so I’m so thankful for her standing up to protect me.
    Anyways, the ex drives off, for good this time and my friend and I walk to my house. This was all at like 7am. 🤦🏽‍♀️
    People are fkin crazy. I was with him for 4 years before I broke it off because I had to move to another state. This was all about 13 years ago.
    I’m married now but damn I’m so glad I never experienced a crazy ex again! That was such a scary experience.
    Anyways, that hotel story made me so angry. Damn foreigners. Sick in the head these people are.. 😔

    I'm really glad Alejandra told her story because it relieves me of doubts about my own stalker story. I've got a little bit of imposter syndrome about a situation that happened in high school that I'm hesitant to label "stalking" because he wasn't physically following me. On top of that, I've had other (ex) friends tell me to get over it and that it wasn't that bad, so sometimes I feel like I was being dramatic about it. That being said, the things he DID do was very similar to what Alejandra describes about her stalker. Maybe I'll do a listener write-in about it one of these days. idk. Anyway, thank you, Alejandra, for being open and telling your story.

    My parents own a pit bull and a chihuahua. About 8 years ago someone broke into their home. My parents did not have any sign around the house stating they have a dog, so no ‘dog warning’ type of signs. So the robbers got in and they immediately ran out. We got home and the door was open. Our dogs must have surprised them and scared them out.. we think it might have been the chihuahua more, our pitty was a sweet guy. If you have a dog, don’t have a sign warning people of the dog if you want it more for protection. My parents now have a full home alarm, which is sad because they live in a nice area but that doesn’t matter anymore.

    I went to court with a friend who was getting a TRO against her ex-bf. He brought his uncle who was an environmental lawyer so they were going to have to reschedule until he got a lawyer who could actually help him. But he also stared at her the whole time and the judge kept telling him to stop. When he didn’t she had to make the bailiff stand between them so he couldn’t see her anymore. She got the temp one off that alone and the future date was for the permanent one.

    Hearing the story’s of her stalkers scare me because me and my sister are currently getting stalked by a man we’ve NEVER met before, he has been showing up to one of the store we work at and he just tends to keep close to where we are we’ve seen him take photos of us and stuff.this heads beeen going on for 2 months and we don’t know what to do anymore, the store managers can’t do anything because technically he hasn’t done anything “wrong”. We’ve been so paranoid and we don’t know how much longer we can keep this job anymore but we can’t just quit.

    this moment got me bc at my school if you hit the fire alarm - it triggers metal doors and in a few seconds they all closed. Issue is there is a set of doors that do not close until after a few minutes but they were already closed for some reason despite the alarm having JUST triggered. We all got shuffled outside. Later it was discovered a student brought a "bb gun" to school.
    Makes me wonder if he was doing a trial run for something. Emailed the school and they reassured us that nothing sinister was up. that the student was bb shooting with friends and forgot he left it back there. still makes me wonder what was up.
    next time fire alarm happened those doors didn't close at all.

    One thing I didn’t hear you guys mention about the fake DCS worker was how did this random woman know that he had a former drug charge from 11 years ago that’s what’s really scary how did she know who they were and what he had charges for from so long ago and then how did she know that they were expecting as well. Obviously they didn’t notice that she was on any of their social media because that would’ve been the first place I checked but that really gives me a bad feeling about how she knew or whoever she works for you because if she was going to try and sell this baby whether it was for her to keep the babyHerself or so the baby on the black market human trafficking whatever how did they know that is the scariest and most unsettling part for me.

      Who's to say she even knew about the previous charge. She could've seen a pregnant lady at the store and chosen her and cased the place. Drug accusations are so common place and the wife knowing there was a previous charge probably informed her by accident. The trafficker could also have a friend or family member working in the system who tips her off

    This counts as supernatural, but it is not a ghost story. One day at work I started feeling sick. But not in a normal way, it came in waves. It would slowly build up until it was really bad and the after an intense moment it would calm down only to build up again. Over a few hours the waves methodically decreased in time between intense moments. I threw up and felt awful, the intense moments were nearly on top of eachother. I called my mom to come get me from work because I didn't think it was safe for me to drive. Before my mom could put the phone down, it rang again, it was my sister about a hour and a half away from me. She was miscarying, but was so far along, that she went into a labor to push out the dead fetus. I was in labor with her, even though I wasn't pregnant and did not know about the miscarry. My mom went to my sister and sent my dad to come get me. My sister and I are not that close, but I think the fact that we went through that together proves there is a bond there.

    I remember sitting in the police office telling the story of why I wanted a police escort to collect my things from my exes house, and the police officer told me THEY would be filing a domestic violence case and suggested a TRO, which was granted immediately after a 5 minute phone call with a judge... I didn't think I'd be able to get granted one because I didn't have photo or video evidence, but the officer told me the fear in my voice and eyes was all they needed. (Plus, my ex has a reputation in town which helped my case a lot I think). It's wild that it is so difficult to get restraining orders, if you don't feel safe you probably aren't.

    My abusive ex used to tell me in detail how he would murder me and get away with it…and then use a trigger word to make me stop talking or stop doing something in front of others if it was bothering him. He would growl under his breath “dust” because essentially he had access to a piece of equipment that would literally turn me to dust - no remains. So his plan was to strangle me and then burn my body in that device. And he meant it. He beat me so bad sometimes I thought I was going to die. Really sad looking back that I never told anyone in the moments…

    I know that some colleges would rent out full floors for things like cheer/dance camps and use facilities on the campus too (like gyms) for the camp days. Usually it's different campuses for separate weeks and the "campers" get to stay in the dorm rooms with their teammates and get food from the dining halls but "aren't allowed" to go anywhere else that they aren't staying in/using for camp specifically (libraries, other halls, classrooms, study rooms, etc). I assume it was was always equally weird for the summer students to see us as it was for us to see them
