does he stalk me?

I can't answer that one from cards — whether someone is stalking you is settled by what you can document and by real help if you need it, not by a spread. Here's what the draw does speak to: the noticing, and what it's sitting on.

Past — Two of Cups, upright. Something between you two was mutual and warm at the start, and that old agreement is what makes the contact legible to you as charged rather than random. It also means your memory of him is built from a moment of real connection, which is exactly why the current contact registers as pointed.

Present — Three of Wands, upright. This is the watching-from-a-distance card: the one looking outward, waiting, tracking the horizon. It describes the shape of your attention right now — you are the one scanning, checking, noticing when he appears. That is a real observation, and it is the only thing here you can be certain of.

Future — Ace of Cups, upright. An emotional opening of some kind: a new feeling on his side, or one more approach that arrives warm and personal. Under the condition that whatever is happening is genuinely a reaching toward you, the next contact reads as an opening, not an escalation — and the same card warns you it will feel sincere, which is precisely why it should not be the thing that settles your question.

The cards do not report another person's mind, and they cannot tell you what he is or isn't doing. What they put together is the *seating arrangement*: warm history, a present where you are the one watching, and a future that looks like it wants something from you.

So the real check is the record, not the reading. Over the next week, write down each time he shows up — date, time, place, what he actually did, and whether you noticed him before he spoke to you or after. If the log shows the same places and hours repeating without your having told him your schedule, that is a pattern you can show someone; if it shows ordinary contact, the unease has an answer too. Both of those are things a spread cannot hand you, and only one of them needs help.

Your step, today: start that log — one line per sighting, in a note only you can open — and keep it for seven days before you decide anything. If any of it feels like a real threat to your safety, that goes to a local support line or the police where you live, not to me.
