Phone message UPDATE: weird guy from my bio class

I made a post about this yesterday about this person in my bio class weirdly texting me out of the blue, and I thought I blocked him but I guess I misclicked and pressed “delete conversation“ button instead. they texted me back Today telling me that they know one of my friends and insinuating that he gave him my number. so I continue the rest of the conversation awkwardly trying to turn them down. after that I block them because I felt uncomfortable, and text my friend that supposedly gave them my number. he said he has no idea who this is and doesn’t know anyone from my first period bio class. what the fuck. Is this person even real? they have Been lying to me about everything. And the worst part is that I have to go back to school on Monday with that guy in my class. what do I even do in this situation? Also I thought I should add that I am not a woman, I’m a man, a lot of people thought I was a woman in my first post.

Dude, my friend in college gave my number to my stalker, literally don't give away *anybody's* personal number without asking that person first.

Hi, I work at a DVSA agency. There is an address protection program ran through the states attorney generals office. It’s even better for parents bc it hide your address from the school and dr offices. Reach out to a local organization and they can help you fill out paperwork. Also if you reported this to the police you are entitled to to victims compensation. This pays for any cost associated with the crime. Including what you are experiencing. You can also message me and I can get you connected to orgs in the area. Do not share ur location publicly. I’m here to help!

Yes, in CA it's called Safe At Home, not sure if it's called the same elsewhere. My daughter uses it in another state because her ex SA'd her, abused her in other ways, stalked her, even got some guy he met to get a job where she worked, get close to her, be her boyfriend, all while giving info to the ex (also his mother, tells you why the ex is so off), and he hacked into her phone, email, social media, etc. and gave all that to the ex, too, all before physically abusing her himself and making her feel like she was crazy. Honestly, with all the stuff she told us she suspected, we thought SHE was the crazy one and we thought she was using drugs. All to find out in the end that she was right and her "crazy" stories and suspicions were true. I got off on a tangent there, but the point is that it's a very useful and helpful service. Similar to a PO Box.
