Writes Jaina in Westport, Conn.: “I dated this asshole last fall, and dumped him because I found out that he was using his Livejournal to try to bang girls on the side. I, of course, still spy on him.” Or at least, she did…until her ip address gave her up.
Adds Jaina: “Please note that the entry was posted at 11:45 p.m. on a Friday. I’ll let you draw your own conclusions about the state of his love life.”
Meanwhile, when a passive-aggressive blog posting starts to seem like a relatively direct method of communication, you know things aren’t going to end well.

Huh, I would have thought he’d have been flattered to have a stalker.
Is that creepy? Maybe I shouldn’t say that out loud.

Jaina doth protest too much. If he’s such an asshole, why bother stalking him?

This leaves me pondering the state of Jaina’s love life. If this guy is an asshole and she dumped him, why does she stalk so?
I hope he has a lock on his hamster’s cage.

Oooh, Burn! This takes PAN to a whole new level. If he were a total asshole he would have posted her name up on the blog and made a totally public stalker-bust.

How about it NOT being hosted on Flickr where they will make you Yahoo! signup to view anything?

I love the fact that she’s letting us draw our own conclusions about the state of his love life . . . when really she’s telling us everything about hers!
Or should I say, !!!!!!!!!

Typical Fairfield County… It’s almost a surprise that we don’t get more PAN here – but it seems that for most residents it’s hard to write when you’re stabbing someone in the back.

maybe she’s checking to see if the sonofabitch has died yet
or at least suffers from an incurable disease or disfigurement – an extremely painful one
i don’t check up on my ex ever, but i do include him in my prayers every night (i didn’t say they were nice prayers, now did i?)

But seriously, why IS she checking his LJ everyday if it’s locked up? It seems there is more than one pathetic person with no love life involved here…

I can honestly say that I’ve never stalked an ex. Now when it comes to stalking prospective dates, that’s a whole other story!
Seriously though, if chick’s gonna keep tabs on her ex, she needs to learn from the obvious mistake she has made…next time make a fake login and change your location!!!! LOL
Team Savvy-Stalkers, you’re up!

See, I’m the opposite. I steer far clear of any ex’s journal or site because I don’t want them to know that I ever think about them. However, I love to ask mutual friends (that I know are on “my side”) to tell me how much their life is fucked up now.
“He got kicked out of his apartment? Lost his job? Got syphillis? AND his mangy dog died? EXCELLENT.”

I just thought this was funny because we both totally still cyberstalk each other. My new boyfriend weighs 200 lbs less than him and is twice as educated. I’m really not concerned.

Is it just me or is the date on his post Jan 10th. That would make it a Thursday not a Friday like she said.

I stalk myself at night
I have come to a realization some time ago: my ex’s life has absolutely no impact on mine, whether he is happy, sad, miserable, his dick is rotting off after all the married women, or whatnot none of it will make MY life better…so who cares? Therefore, I just focus on my life.

Lol. My ex-boyfriend visits my blog everyday. He thinks I don’t know, but like her asshole ex-boyfriend, my blog has a sitemeter too. But I never bothered saying anything to him. It just amuses me that although he’s curious about how I’m doing, he never bothers to say anything to me. Strange.

I think people read a lot more into this than is really there.. So what if an ex reads your blog, looks you up on facebook or wherever. Anybody can do that. What makes the fact that your ex is looking at your online presence such a big deal? Are you also not over it?

Actually, with Internet savvy parents/relatives out there now days – the person you’ve got to worry about checking your facebook/xanga/LJ/myspace and religiously recording any tidbit of mildly denigrating pictures/entries may not be your ex – but the PARENTS. Angry, angry parents with a personal vendetta just waiting to send your workplace/significant other photos/entries of your last weekend’s escapades….

“please note that the entry was posted at 11:45 p.m. on a friday. i’ll let you draw your own conclusions about the state of his love life.”
Perhaps he thinks outside the box and arranges dates for times other than 11:45 PM on a Friday? Your argument is weak, like your capitalization.
Judging from the post and your comment, it sounds like your ex got the better end of the deal, what with getting shot of a girl who apparently has a tendency toward unhealthy fixation.
If you have a new boyfriend, go spend time with him, take the time and energy you spend obsessing about your ex and put it into a relationship you WANT to have.

The Guy Who This is About
Wow. I’m glad she posted this and showed what kind of psycho she really is. Thanks to all the PANers who posted comments letting her know how bad she looks in this situation.
Remember kids, cyberstalking is the ultimate in electronic passive aggression… just say no.

Why didn’t he lock it BEFORE she found out he was cheating? Not that I don’t think it’s good she found out but from the perspective of the Ex it makes no sense.
He didn’t even lock it after she found out he was trying to cheat on her. Why did it take so long for him to figure out he needs to lock it?

I’m curious as to what sitemeter he uses that lets him track all that. I sure could use one on my blog.

I am with Jaina.
Jaina rocks! I dated this guy, too. He is an amazingly cocky idiot and it’s amusing to read about his pathetic adventures. I love that she still checks in and that he keeps checking sitemeter. People don’t write public journals because they don’t want anyone to read them…
Go Jaina! You can do so much better.
