Anyone that is threatening, endangering or disrupting your life. * Someone that admires you from afar, but is stalking you (they are everywhere you are) * An ex boyfriend or ex husband that is stalking, threatening you or your family, friends or a coworker or even a boss you may work for * An ex or even an admirer that abuses you verbally by phone, email, etc. * A person who has verbally or physically abused you and still threatens you * Someone that is lying about you and causing you to lose your reputation which could affect where you work or cause you 'undue stress.' There are many other reasons, but those are the most common ones.

A restraining order is a type of court order which is offered in helping to keep the abuser away from the victims so that the harassing stops and the abuser steers clear from the violence scene. It is important to know that the restraining orders are not criminal orders, but civil orders and that the abusers don't posess any criminal record.
