Description

A young woman breaks off a "flirtationship" with a man, who reacts very poorly. He refuses to leave her alone or respect her rejection, and there is an ominous, threatening tone in how be speaks to her; he starts waiting for her outside her place of work and following her around, and she is disturbed and uncomfortable. This does not escalate further.
