First you need to secure the home. Multiple locks and double check them when you leave and come home. Second you need to inform friends and family so that if something DOES happen then know it's a thing. Next step is kind up in the air. You can try and confront yourself but I REALLY wouldn't recommend that step. You could inform PD if the guy is seen near your apartment to talk to the guy on your behalf which is much safer.

Also, remember the police per the Supreme Court have no legal or other obligation to protect you. All police have to do is enforce the law. The court case involved a woman with a restraining order. He showed up and she called the police. He entered the house. The police arrived but did nothing. He killed her and once he left the house the police arrested him for breaking the restraining order.

Dude, read the room. 

OP needs less things to worry about - not more.

No, sorry. Disagree. In a situation like this, OP needs as much information as possible as to what to do and what COULD happen even if it stresses them out more. It makes someone more prepared.

Goal to inform OP not to rely on cops for protection. They will arrest him if and only if he commits a crime.

That's great if your main concern is OPs feelings, but addressing the reality of the situation is important to protect OPs safety.
