📽️“It’s going to take a grand gesture to win his girl around, but Jack isn’t giving up!” Or… is Jack a stalker?
The behaviours seen in many rom-coms could be considered stalking if they follow the pattern of FOUR: Fixated, Obsessed, Unwanted, Repeated. https://t.co/L8CMy8lO83

[Gloucestershire Constabulary @Glos_Police]

We❤️rom-coms, but we don’t love normalising stalking.
Sometimes stalking behaviours can seem small on their own. But when they form a pattern of FOUR: Fixated, Obsessed, Unwanted, Repeated: You should record & report before it escalates. https://t.co/L8CMy8lO83

“Maddie” was stalked by her ex partner.
The red flags were there during their relationship, but after their breakup, his behaviour got more intense and dangerous.

Remember the FOUR warning signs: If the behaviour you’re experiencing is
Fixated
Obsessed
Unwanted
Repeated
