I‘m feeling weird in my flat at the moment after a run in with my (male) neighbour. While making his complaint against me, he made reference to things he could have only learned by going thru my social media and writing. I made it public so it’s not illegal but it’s so unnerving
I thought about posting him a letter saying that I didn’t believe it was a mistake, that he intentionally referenced my profiles to throw me and assert power (an ‘I know what you’re up to’ play) and if he tried to intimidate me again I’d call the police
But I don’t think it would be taken seriously. Probably I’d be told to calm down dear. They’d probably say it was a misunderstanding, they’d see it from his point of view and remind me that he is not breaking any laws. Not sure I could take that tbh.
Also they have better things to do then get involved with this (fair enough). Power is so interesting. In theory I have more because I’m a journalist. In practice, I’m still a woman. I’m still a minority. I’m still a renter. Probably I’ll delete this thread in a bit out of fear
