Both people I wrote are public figures, both are high officers in a corporation, and neither is my current or ex lover, in reality or in my mind. I'm writing them about business, not about some relationship I think I have with them. I neither contacted them outside of their business, nor followed or snooped on them outside their business. There's a long and rich tradition of people writing the CEO or other high officers. The usual result is that somebody is assigned to examine the merits of the letter writer. So if you think what I'm doing is counterproductive, fine, say so (which you did in the next sentence) and don't write a letter. But don't insult me or other letter writers by putting my action *anywhere* on the stalking scale.
