There is a thin line from being infatuated with a person and stalking them. However, there is a difference between the two.
Infatuation is usually an exagerated form of passion or attraction. Compare this to stalking, which is actually putting a person in fear and causing distruption to their life, yet still has the same traits as infatuation and the lines between the two become confussed.
Stalking, however, does cross the boundary between Infatuation, which is usually harmless and self-indulgant, and the more sinister behaviour which is stalking.
We need to ask ourselves 'When does an interest in someone become stalking?', it is only when we do this that we can break down the behaviour presented and decide.
