Guest guest Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 I remember this case, ; it is hard to imagine a grown woman doing something like this. I think the whole social structure of how we leave kids vulnerable to other kids (and in this case an adult posing as a kid) is wrong. ~p Re: stalking bpd-ers This topic reminds me of a case a couple of years ago from the Midwest where an adult woman posed online as a teenaged boy in order to psychologically torture a thirteen year old girl who lived in her neighborhood.She was angry at the girl because she thought she'd spread some rumor about her daughter--she went on the thirteen year old's Myspace or Facebook pretending to be a boy who was the thirteen year old's " secret admirer " and she intended all along to reel the girl in and then cruelly reject her. Apparently the thirteen year old had problems with her peers at school and was thrilled to have some boy interested in her.Over a few weeks,the woman posing as the boy flattered the girl and flirted with her then slowly began to criticize her building it up to " the boy " telling her something like he'd decided she was so disgusting,he wasn't interested anymore. This vulnerable girl was so devastated by this,she hanged herself. The case went to court but the woman wasn't charged with any wrongdoing on a " free speech " technicality.Obviously,she has some kind of serious PD--her behavior was malicious and deliberate and intended solely to cause harm.Her attitude was, " Hey,it's not my fault she killed herself... " The whole issue of her having a PD was never part of the case--that these people can be dangerous and intentionally vicious.I couldn't believe it when I heard the woman just got away with it.To me,the whole thing had very little to do with " free speech " and everything to do with the fact that the perp--and she *was* a perp--had a personality disorder. > > I wondered if you all feel stalked by your bpd parents.
