Jessica WakemanOctober 23, 2009 //

Some mean girls never grow up—they just get jobs in PR. Meet Ali Wise, age 32, a former party planner for Dolce & Gabbana who went bats**t with jealousy when her ex-boyfriend starting dating new women. She is facing charges from four women whose phones and voicemail she hacked into using a computer service called SpoofCard, all because they were dating her exes, Josh Deutsch, CEO of Downtown Records, and hotelier Jason Pomeranc. A friend of Wise told the NY Daily News she has used SpoofCard “forever to find out about her exes’ new girls. She hacks in to voicemails, MySpace and Facebook accounts, emails … you name it.” Charges against this blonde bully include eavesdropping, computer trespassing, aggravated harassment and stalking. Ack! You sure don’t see this side of PR girls on The City …. Keep reading »

Ex From Hell: Pilot Stalks Former Girlfriend Via Plane

Nikki DowlingSeptember 27, 2009 //


A California pilot has been arrested for flying his airplane repeatedly over his ex-girlfriend’s house. The 51-year-old guy, who was previously served with a restraining order for his sky-high stalking, angered residents by continuing to fly low over her town multiple times per day. This wacko dude also dropped fliers that said super mean things about his estranged lover and even contained racial slurs. Officials think the pilot has been using his plane to harass his ex for about a year now. We say it’s time for him to get some serious therapy, and his pilot’s license revoked. [CNN] Keep reading »

Nine Romantic Comedy Stars Who Need Restraining Orders

DivineCaroline.comAugust 23, 2009 //

For much of my adolescence, I held up Say Anything and its endearing, boombox-wielding protagonist (Lloyd Dobler, sigh) as the pinnacle of what I wanted in relationships. Then I got older and thought about a guy I had just dumped standing outside of window at dawn and playing cheeseball music and suddenly, my dream guy seemed less like an ideal and more like a stalker.

Romantic comedies set unrealistic expectations of relationships and love, but if we look beyond the cinematic surface, what’s revealed are a host of crazy characters whose actions would never fly in real life—or would fly them right into a restraining order. Read more … Keep reading »

Face Off: Online Snooping Versus Stalking

Amelia McDonell-ParryFebruary 19, 2009 //

According to a new poll, women are way more likely than men to “stalk” an ex online, with 62% of the 1700 people polled admitting to looking up a former love online. I totally believe that women use the Internet more often than men to garner information on a crush, look up the whereabouts of exes, and check out a former flame’s new significant other. In fact, Catherine and I were just discussing the fact that none of our recent dates seemed to have Googled us, which I kind of find…insulting. But I don’t think “looking up” an ex (or a crush or the competition) online is the same as “stalking.” After the jump, I break down the differences between just snoopin’ and totally stalking when it comes to online behavior.

Do We Really Need To Know Who’s Googling Us?

Wendy AtterberryOctober 1, 2008 //

It used to be you had to wait until you had ringing ears to know someone was thinking about you, but these days you can get an email alert any time someone Googles your name. Ziggs.com, a new social networking site, invites people to create profiles and promises to give them a top position in all search engines for $4.95 a month. Members get instant email notifications every time a visitor views their profiles via search engines like Google, even alerting them of the visitor’s location. This sort of thing just smacks of all kinds of wack, from encouraging rampant narcissism, to creating the modern day “waiting for his call” syndrome, as well as making people wonder about their exes way more than necessary.
