the situation just freaked you out, which is why you are still shaken up a bit. you shouldn't have told him where you lived. always follow your gut instinct, if you feel like someone is weird & creepy, then dont talk to them!

Well, you are scared because this was one creepy guy. I mean, he asked you where you lived, which was very inappropriate, and then he waited for you to come home, even though he didn't know you. He could not have had good things on his mind, and I'm glad you avoided him successfully. I think it's good you trusted your instincts to be afraid of him.
You should now tell your parents about this. Keep in mind that you did nothing wrong, and you won't get in trouble for telling them what happened. He may be a sexual predator who will wait around for another girl who doesn't have the strong instincts that you do. Your parents and you should call the police, so they can get a description if this guy. He might be known to them, and even if he isn't, it's good that they know that a strange man is hanging around talking to and waiting for young girls.
I don't mean to say this to scare you, most people are perfectly nice and won't hurt you, but if you felt bad vibes from this guy, and then he acted in a way that confirmed your suspicions, you really should tell someone.

This is commonly referred to as "intuition." Something about the guy gave you the creeps - and perhaps rightly so. Why would he care where you lived?? You need to tell your parent(s) right away and keep an eye out for a while for this guy. Make sure he isn't following you or waiting outside your house at odd times of the day/night, etc. If he is, contact the police without delay!
There's nothing saying he's dangerous, but your gut feeling is telling you to be afraid of this guy - he could very well be a predator! Be CAREFUL!

ALWAYS trust your intuition. If this guy gave you a creepy feeling, it's probably because your subconcious saw something about him that just wasn't right to begin with. Don't go back to where you were, and be sure to tell someone with some authority (your parents, the police) about what happened. Don't feel shy or silly talking about it. There are creeps everywhere! If you have to go past that area again to go home or whatever, take a buddy with you so you're not alone.

Bad feelings help people to run and excape a possible kidnapping or wose. Be thankful for that! Never tell anyone where you live. Tell your parents what happened and what the man looked like. I once had a "stalker" when I was 13. Maybe nothing will come of your experience. I hope not. But beware and be careul. Stay away from that place and him.

You have a good reason to be scared. A creepy stranger tried to find out where you live. Never skateboard, walk, jog, etc, in a place where there are not many people. You could be dragged off and raped or murdered. It has happened many times. You should call the police and report this man. Describe him to them. What he did is not normal and he could be dangerous. And never, ever tell a stranger where you live.

I'm glad you went the other way. The guy sounds like a predator. Please be careful and try to have someone with you when you come and go. It would be a good idea to notify the police of this guy and tell him what you have told us. Maybe they will watch the area. And try to remember not to ever tell a stranger where you live. Or your phone no.

Its because first of all the guy creeped you out right off the bat. Secondly you gave him information that later you regretted. If it were me I would talk to a cop about him. He seems like a strange character and should be checked up on. I mean you don't wanna run into him again right?

You are feeling the way you are supposed to feel in situation like that. Your adrenaline is racing because you were in a situation that could have been potentially dangerous, and you are now reacting to what might have been. You did what you needed to do in order to avoid the danger, but you have to be more careful in where you find yourself alone. Your feelings come from what might have happened...consider yourself lucky

Because you are thinking of what could have happened, what did happen, and what will happen. if i do something wrong I get the feeling that I should tell some one. Tell your mother, tell her that you did nothing wrong and this guy was looking for you.
