I was dreading that she would have foolishly relented and gone back to him one more time just to straighten things out. As a prosecutor, I had a case of domestic abuse where the woman went back after pulling away from an abusive drug addict boyfriend just to clear things up and the guy killed her.

Him: oh, and by the way, I want us to get married, as soon as we graduate. 😖

stalking is a crime in all 50 states. Once you tell the person NOT to contact you, I would recommend NOT blocking them. If you block them, they will still call, text, email, you just won't SEE it, nor will you have that evidence to PROVE in court that they have continued to stalk you after you said nO. If you do see their attempts, you can print those out, and collect them to prove they are stalking. All the people helping her are great here in this video too. It's difficult to get that kind of support once you're an adult, And many victims still don't realize how dangerous these individuals are

@justinwoodward3413

Having someone potentially risk inflicted self-harm and constant harassment just to "catch" someone in the act is not the recommended protocol by legal or mental health professionals. It could be a dangerous game to play, that you don't know the outcome to. Collecting evidence is always a good idea, but one shouldn't feel obligated to expose themselves to more damaging things to collect additional evidence.

Blocking someone who you dumped because of their abusive behavior is the right thing to do - and there are other ways of proving their harassing behavior if you decide to file a restraining order (such as fake accounts or messages that he might send to friends or your loved ones asking them to help him change her mind)

You don't get those behavior at all in fact they'll butter you up and tell you that they would never take you away from your friends or family and they wouldn't get in the way of your dreams and then it becomes subtle hints of being disappointed and jealous of your accomplishments and then it starts slowly turning to demands. The guys who start their relationships off like this don't stay in relationships. The only reason why many abused women stay with their abusers is because they had a bunch of time with them where they weren't abusing them, fell in love and emotionally attached.

This is actually realistic and it can sometimes happen this way. The key things here were that she had support and a plan to breakup with the guy and stick to it.

I hear what you’re saying though in some cases, there’s stalking, threats, emotional blackmail etc.

If you are in this doorway, you are trespassing. Please leave immediately or the San Francisco PD will be called” Sarah’s family should put up a the exact same sign on their front door but with Mike’s name on it, and the sign should also say “we will NOT have any conversation with you”

10:14 Sarah's mom could possibly put the spare key somewhere else that's inside of the house.
