Stalking

• Women are 3 times more likely to be stalked than raped. ()
• Over 1.4 million women and men are stalked in the U.S. each
  year. ()
• About a 1 in every 4 stalking victims obtain restraining orders.
• In many, many instances, obtaining a restraining order for a stalker
  will only make a bad situation worse. From the stalker’s point
  of view, restraining orders are humiliating.
• Tell a stalker “no” once and only once, and then never
  give them the satisfaction of a reaction again. The more you
  respond, the more you teach them that their actions will elicit
  a response.
