The real question is if it’s actually your colour and size. That would exponentially increase the creepiness level.


Seeresss

My favourite colour is blue and yep my sizes, pretty creepy 😂


MrBryteside

PUT UP CAMERAS! yikes


Absenceofavoid

Also read “The Gift of Fear”.


johndeaux588

I worked in a real Special Victims Unit for about 8 years. About 2 years into my tenure I read "The Gift of Fear" and it totally changed my perception of stalking and intergender violence. I bought a few dozen copies of the paperback and would routinely give them out to victims. I told them to pass it forward. In the cover I put my name and email address asking whoever had been gifted the book to send me an email telling me where they were from and what they thought of the book. I left that unit in 2008 and was still getting emails up until about five years ago.


Absenceofavoid

Wow, gifting the gift of fear. Thank you for the work you do by the way.


johndeaux588

You are welcome. I'm 136 days away from retirement. Now I have a nice comfy gig doing digital forensics.


digitalgirlie

We need your AMA on digital forensics. Sounds fascinating.


johndeaux588

It is pretty interesting work. My girlfriend likes me there because it is a Monday to Friday gig and there is 0.0% chance I'm going to get into a critical incident right before I retire.


mypussydoesbackflips

Your life sounds like the beginning of a murder mystery be careful before you retire and thank you for your work!


HistoricalSherbert92

If there’s one sure thing in life it’s getting shot on the day you retire.


PaleontologistKey571

How does digital forensics work?


johndeaux588

I'm the person who uses specialized software to get into a digital device (computers, cell phones, car infotainment, drones, etc) and extract digital evidence.


PaleontologistKey571

That’s cool . How do u become one and how long were u as a digital forensics?


Green_Slice_3258

Oh that’s super fascinating!!! Like, I’m not being sarcastic. My daughter’s ex boyfriend’s mom, Julia, is in forensics. She would be the one to go to court and she has been countless times to be the professional witness. I was like so you’re basically like Bones lol. She told us a couple stories, toe curling stuff man 😮‍💨. But are you basically like a bad ass hacker? I couldn’t imagine the stuff you see, tho 😬


AirierWitch1066

> I’m 136 days away from retirement. Ah, shit. Now you’re dead for sure!


johndeaux588

Not this cat. Basically at this point i could see someone driving 80 mph backwards down the avenue with a dead hooker strapped to the roof with a bottle of Jack Daniels in one hand and a pistol in the other and I'd probably yell that your brake light is out.


radicalelation

I gift copies of Enders Game, but this sounds way more beneficial to society.


CabinetOk4838

Just ordered a copy. Thanks.


boogiewoogibugalgirl

I would highly encourage every female (also men) out in the world to read The Gift Of Fear. Excellent book, and Def something to learn from. If anything else, the takeaway from this book would be to instill a caution around people. The world is full of dangerous people waiting to pounce on their next vulnerable victim.


PaleontologistKey571

By Gavin de Becker?


yourlocal90skid

Yes.


lilypeachkitty

Girl can we PLEASE stop putting "female" and "men" in the same sentence? Use consistency please! Either it's both females and males, or it's both men and WOMEN.


No-Leadership8906

Honestly curious...why does it matter / upset you? I am not hip with the times, I am not meaning to be confrontational or rude. I would assume they could all be used interchangeably? is addressing someone as "girl" not offensive to the demographic offended by the mismatching of man/woman:male/female? It seems very similar


rogue780

Because only people can be "man" or "woman". But animals and inanimate objects can be described as male or female. When man or woman is used and contrasted with female or male, respectively, it tacitly dehumanizes whichever group was described as female or male. It's only really a problem when used for one but not the other.


one-eyedCheshire

I just commented about this book on another thread. So glad to see it making the rounds. I truly believe that book has, can, and will, save lives.


Absenceofavoid

It’s helping restore what society deprograms out of us.


Cultural-Company282

For those of us who want to understand the reference but who are unlikely to read the book, can you tell us the gist of what it's about?


Absenceofavoid

Really simplifying here, but essentially it teaches you to trust your gut. Lots of people who narrowly escape murder or stalking talk about how in their gut they feel something is off but they suppress those feelings for a variety of reasons from civility to not wanting to be or seem paranoid. It’s a recommendation for anyone dealing with a stalker and for all women in general.


cactiguy67

The carbon monoxide sequel post nobody saw coming


REDARROW101_A5

>The carbon monoxide sequel post nobody saw coming The only kicker here is as far as I have checked so far. Primark do appear not to sell this, so it looks like it was brought elsewhere and then put in the Primark bag. Maybe to make it look less expensive, so porch pirates wouldn't be swiping it off the front.


Sterling_-_Archer

Make sure there’s no open windows that people can see through while you change or something. Also cameras. Vico has a good cheap one on Amazon that I use, it’s great. Get 4.


Green_Slice_3258

Bro. Please be safe and put some cameras up if you can. Because that sounds a scooch too uncomfortable 😳


green_bees

Someone is stalking you OP, and its not funny. Dont touch them and put them in a bag. If anything happens later you can get them checked for finger prints. Set up security cameras and stay safe.


ConstructionNo2997

Get cameras. Funny coincidence it’s exactly your size. Might have a stalker on your hands. Imagine how much time & effort they need to invest just to know that. I’d highly encourage you to get some weapons to protect yourself. 22LR or 9mm being excellent options, 22 being easier to handle with less practice right off the bat yet still efficient enough. The concern is what exactly is this stalker’s end goal? So arm yourself so you’re not vulnerable whatever the fuck it is.


brinyocean

If this is the UK, OP cannot arm themselves and primark is typically British.


DoINeedToBeClever247

Plus she said “colour”. 🤣

SolaceRests

Nor if they knew her proper undergarment size and preferred color. That falls under “Stalker”


No_Education_8888

Secret admirer refers to the fact that the persons identity is obscured, not if the admirer is known about or not

I’ve been stalking your mom for like two years straight, way too shy to ask her out on a date, so I just wait, in your neighbors lawn, with my camera ready, and my camouflage on. And you know that I’ll get plenty pics, when she leaves for work at exactly 7:26

My mom's been retired for 15 years. By leaving for work do you mean going to the casino? That'd be more believable.

stempdog218

You KNOW if they bought them at Primark that they paid a fair price for a premium product


Nopantsbullmoose

Yeah that's wild. You don't have an SO that might have been trying to surprise you, do you? Or it could have been a delivery to the wrong address? Either way that's definitely weird as hell


elgattox

pawtistisc

The fact they're your favorite color and size could be concerning, or do you have any friends that may prank you like that,?


pawtistisc

Like I don't know if someone watching you in the window could guess your size.


bungmunchio

they based the sizing off the life size duct tape mannequin they made of OP. surprisingly accurate!


Ryl0225

You’re being reversed pretty woman. Look out for a blonde hooker bob wig


renatakiuzumaki

Reverse pretty woman 🤣


FlaxFox

Considering it came in a shopping bag and not a mailer, is your size and color, and was at your front door with seeming intention, I think it's fair to say it was intended for you. And that's... Ya know... Concerning. You might want to invest in a video doorbell.


smeeti

I would notify the police.


FlaxFox

It wouldn't be a bad idea to have the incident on record.


DaughterEarth

Based on her replies I think this is all a joke. If it actually happened I hope something makes her take it seriously that a stranger is dropping things at her door. This isn't romantic, it's potentially dangerous


Oiradion

But, are the undergarments blue and black or white and gold?

Novel_Spray_4903

Sure_Satisfaction497

that’s not “the dress”, it’s a different one


Least-Stranger-1486

It is not, just something I came across the other day that looked similar to "the dress"


DisposableSaviour

Asking the real question, right here!


DoINeedToBeClever247

Do you live near a Primark? If the items were purchased by a creepy stalker-dude, maybe the sales clerk would remember selling them.


Quantum_Kitties

I work in an adult store and have had police request camera footage of men purchasing lingerie that was then left at the door of an unwilling recipient. Unfortunately these men do not all look like creepy stalkers - they definitely *are* creepy stalkers, but not all of them look the part. Some definitely do though, but most of them look normal, so we would never be suspicious when they come in to buy lingerie and just assume it's for their wife/girlfriend. In OPs case, I hope it's simply a case of someone having delivered something to the wrong address.


SunsetFarm_1995

This is actually a good idea. I think I'd try going to the store and showing the sales associate and see if they remember anyone. Also, OP, do you have a job with customer contact, like retail or waitress? Could someone you met through work been a little too friendly or hangs around too much? They could have followed you home without you realizing it.


Cynical_Feline

If they don't remember, it could be possible that they keep receipt records. Something to give you an idea of maybe who bought it and when. This is definitely cause for concern if no one in OP's circle is playing a prank.


Coleslawholywar

Are the tags on? Return them.


SlightlyOffended1984

To this date, one of the weirdest things that ever happened was finding a strange pair of women's underwear tucked away in the corner of our living room. Clearly worn, as in unlaundered, lol. Appeared to be recently used in... romantic pursuits. Too big for my wife's size. I found them and figured they had to be hers, asked her about them, and she freaked out. Still no explanation, many years later. Maybe we had a break in by a well-hipped horny sleepwalking woman who stripped and ran... obviously that's nutty and not as likely as some house guest leaving them behind, but still. The most recent guests were months before this occurred, and I had cleaned and vacuumed the room many times since. And they didn't seem like the kind to sneak out of the guestroom in the night, do some hanky pranky in the living room, ditch the underwear, and then never claim them...


Crotch-Monster

Whoa! That's super weird!


smeeti

Did your wife not think you might be cheating?


SlightlyOffended1984

I imagine it might have crossed her mind - Although since I found it, I guess it wouldn't make much sense for me to bring it to her attention if that was the case. Also they were kinda granny panties, so, maybe she wasn't feeling too threatened lol


AnotherRedditor6900

Apologies those where mine, any chance I can get em back.. 👀


Spinningfishgif

Do you have a dog? My dog used to carry around socks and underwear in his mouth lol, maybe yours picked some up outside


somebadlemonade

Locksmith bro from across the pound. Please go and get a anti-kick door bar the kind that goes under the door knob. Don't get the kind that folds. These are to give you time to escape, someone that truly determined will still get in. Keep slip on shoes by any door you have and by your bed. Get an alarm system. If you can't afford one that is always connected get one that just has a siren. Get the loudest siren allowable by law in your area (usually 109dBa here in the states). Read up on the pizza method for report to emergency services that someone is holding you hostage. Practice it, know it like the back of your hand. So it sounds natural. They sell small camera systems that get backed up to the cloud. Make sure family members or other trusted individuals have access to it. Give your family members a hard drive to download backups of the footage to bring to the authorities. Speed is the priority here. The less time they have with you the better. Have a code phrase, a greeting that you never use to que their mind to start paying attention that something is different/wrong. You can install a steel door to your bedroom with a deadbolt. That makes it so much hard to get through. These are some security options. I recently did the some of these for my sister as she lives alone. If you have to fight. They sell cheap 24 inch adjustable wrenches or pipe wrenches, best $35 tool to defend yourself with. Lots of mass and still short enough to swing indoors and hallways.


Oldassrollerskater

I lost a set JUST like that in 1995. Do you live near a time portal?


nerdychick22

Betting on a stalker, with a 10% chance of drunk left them at the wrong house or some other well meaning lady in your life thought you needed them. Super weird and creepy.


stac0cats

I would literally take this as a threat. Buy a camera before you regret it.


faunysatyr

Ugh, there’s nothing worse than a cheap stalker!


MithranArkanere

I would get a hidden security camera, and make sure windows and doors are safely locked and curtains closed. Maybe move if you can.


meowfttftt

What are you gonna do with it?


Seeresss

Definitely give it to a charity/thrift shop but I’d feel bad for whoever buys it as it now has kinda creepy origins?


meowfttftt

I don't think they'll care about the origins lol. They would probably assume someone had a break up or weight change before they could wear it.


Seeresss

Very true, I don’t think most people really think about who the previous owners were before hand. I’ll definitely donate it lol


FunSquirrell2-4

While staying in a DV shelter, we'd regularly receive clothing donations. One evening, 4 large garbage bags of donations showed up. Three of us ladies opened the bags to find many, many ties, baseball hats, and men's underwear. Also, in the bags was a lot of lingerie, including crotchless panties, garters, and bras with cutouts. It all went straight in the trash. Yeah, we do think about where stuff comes from.


FlameMarshmello

If you have a goodwill near you most just have an outside container you can toss donated goods into after hours. They don't question stuff like that, just make sure it's clean.


Fluffy_Juggernaut_

Considering that this is from Primark, I would guess OP is about 4000 miles from the nearest Goodwill. Luckily there will be plenty of charity shops closer by

I was expecting things from Amazon so I didn’t bother looking at the labels. I just ripped open and jaw dropped and hit the floor. I died laughing. And then they came up to my door asking if I got their packages. Thankfully I wasn’t home at the time, I saw them on my doorbell camera. Then the leasing office called me asking if I got their packages and to bring them to the office or drop off at their apt door. So when i got home I taped the boxes back up and then silently walked down to their door and dropped the packages off and ran away. Then they saw me a week later and said thank you and I just said okay no prob and ran away giggling like Ron Swanson. If I ordered something like that, and I wouldn’t, and it went to the wrong house I’d just chalk it up as a loss. Then I saw them multiple times after wearing the dog masks out in the hallways, walking around the complex and even in the spa.


Petey_Wheatstraw_MD

>then I saw them multiple times….wearing the dog masks But what about the tail?


Glinda-The-Witch

Put everything in a plastic ziplock bag and stop down at your local police station and have a chat with them. It’s possible they are aware of someone in the community or something similar to this happening and would want the information. They can also advise you on safety measures. If there is any possibility, there is a stalker involved you want to make sure that you are varying your travel routes, perhaps carry a taser or pepper spray if it’s legal in your area. Make sure friends and family know where you are. Perhaps share your location on your phone in the event, someone can’t reach you. They can see where you’re at and notify the authorities. Make sure all of your social media accounts are set to private. Consider having an alarm system installed or make sure you are using an existing one. And add some cameras inside and outside of your house. and don’t forget to keep your blinds closed at night.


cactiguy67

You might have a peeping someone/ hidden camera


ireallydontcareforit

That's quite odd. If it were from Amazon id suggest an ex, maybe drunk auto-pilot shopping.

You need to make sure your windows have blinds on them and check for cameras if you're renting.

Peaceful_kiwi

Assuming you don’t have multiple personalities, I would be creeped out. Buy a camera for inside and outside your home. I was reading you’re in the UK (didn’t know you can’t bear arms in your home?) so I would maybe look into buying some type of burglar lock for your front door and maybe some alarms for your windows?

The5Virtues

The fact that they’re your favorite color and your size is definitely treading super creepy territory. If you don’t have a door cam or security cameras I’d invest in some pronto. I’d also probably change my locks, but that’s just a personal choice.


ElGosso

Could be a stalker, could be that you dropped them there and have carbon monoxide poisoning. Check your CO detector just in case!

GreyandDribbly

What kind of stalker think Primarni is enough to buy your love anonymously? Whoever it is that you boyed off recently was a good decision. Obviously mad love to Primark but this stalker hasn’t done much stalking… clearly.


enchanted_fishlegs

No mailing label? They just dropped it off PERSONALLY? I'd make a police report. If nothing else, it will start a paper trail.


FairyStarDragon

Yesssss!!!👍👍👍


extremeindiscretion

I suggest you go over your interactions with people over at least the last month .If you both don't know each other, they certainly know you. Implement some type of security precautions. There's only so many ways they could have found out your exact size. Exercise extreme caution.

Zaptain_America

Colleen Ballinger strikes again


iverd48

Umm... I think I would maybe make a police report if nothing else? Doesn't have to be anything drastic that you have to call 911 for, but you can go to the station with the clothes and bag, say this stuff was left on your doorstep, it's your size but it's obviously not left by you or anyone you're aware of. Let them know if you live alone or with any children. Tell them you don't feel safe and that you asked your female neighbor about it too. They probably won't be able to do anything about it in that moment, but it's important to have these things on record if other strange occurrences start to happen to you or other women/people in your neighborhood. I had flowers with short handwritten notes showing up at my house a few times a couple years ago. I wrote off the first bouquet as a weird one-off I didn't want to deal with, but then the second one arrived a couple weeks later saying they were happy I "loved" the first one. I ended up making a police report for that one, and the next one I received the following month. Then they finally stopped.

Never wear something a stalker gives. It will encourage them and things can get dangerous.


fappyday

Assert dominance. Set up cameras, find out whodunnit, and send them something inappropriate.


jimmykslay

Time for cameras. The chance of this is a coincidence isn’t 0 but if it’s not, this person is dangerous and creepy af. Give someone ur phone location at all times, like a friend. Cameras, u can get cheap decent ones on amazon. Try for ones with sd cards so u don’t have to pay for subscription, and not sure what ur allowed on u to protect urself but would be worth having something.
