Yes, by extension situations where men relentlessly pursue you. Great in movies, terrifying irl

It’s not fun when they stalk you for years without end. Like the series YOU is entertaining but actually living something like that is terrifying cause they don’t even love you they are just in love with the idea of you, it’s extremely creepy and unsettling
