Jill was stalked by an older high school foreign exchange student who became obsessed with her.
He constantly stood in front of her locker and would move aside when she needed to use it, but continued to stare without speaking to her.
As his behavior escalated, he followed her around school, waited outside the bathroom for her, and offered her gifts.
Jill told the school counselor about this, and found out he had also been stalking other students.
The counselor told Jill to try to be sympathetic because of cultural differences and suggested Jill befriend her stalker; giving the stalker the same advice.
When her stalker approached her again, she told him to leave her alone, but that only escalated his stalking behavior.
When Jill's mother found out what was happening, she called the school and threatened to call the police.
After that, Jill's stalker turned his attention to another girl at school, but took it a step further and followed her home.
