I've never stalked anyone, but then again I think it'd be hard to find any guy who would admit that they've stalked. Have I said, "Let's go this party/bar because the chick I like will be there"? Sure. But that's not stalking, that's just being smart.
Setting aside the fact that a guy who admits that they've stalked is creepy, when approaching women, men are supposd to act "like men". We're supposed to walk right up to the woman, see if she's interested, and then act accordingly depending on her level of interest. We're not supposed to use stealth or trickery to woo women. We're supposed to be direct.
But it's a bit different for women. Although it is 2004, there are still many women who expect to be the approachee as opposed to the approacher. A woman who drives by a potential mate's house is simply positioning herself to be approached. A guy who does it is a creepy stalker.
As an aside, I remember from my single days that when interacting with groups of women out at the bars there was always one woman who was grumpy because she was expecting some guy to be at Bar1, and he was not there. Inevitalby she would pout and badger her friends into leaving and going to Bar2, in hopes of running into the guy. I hated when chicks did this. This would never work for a guy.
