Dealing with the former at the moment & no one’s taking it seriously due to this double standard.

    Same thing with family members. If you have an estranged parent or so, then harassing and stalking you is somehow always turned into your fault.

    “She just cares about you, she’s your mother!”

    I hope you’ll be rid your stalker soon. I remember how oppressive it was having one, and I can’t imagine how doubly awful it must be to have one that has financial means to do whatever they want. Absolute nightmare.

    Classism? In my America? More likely than you might think!

    In all seriousness, I hope you are able to get away from this situation. <3

    I had an incredibly wealthy stalker that stalked me across three different countries.

    Scariest time of my life.

    This is partly because of the belief that wealth is a good indicator of character.

        I disagree. I think that it’s a product of capitalism. Wealth is still primarily gained by inheritance, but everyone used to know that, and so whether someone was a tit was not connected with how much wealth they possessed.

        The capitalist lie is that if you’re rich, or poor, or somewhere in between, you deserve it.

    just tell him you’re already in love with someone else and offer to introduce him to someone else. then tell your dad that you arent interested in set ups at this time.
