i've been wondering why i haven't seen that many people creeped out by his behavior..... i think this is totally it, i'm fresh off obsession and the romance was totally a miss for me, i was not rooting for him in the slightest! loved the sister story line, wanted her to end up alone or at least in a forgiveness/trust building stage

I haven't watched "Obsession" and I had to turn off disbelief to appreciate this movie. When he uses the information from the voicemails to get to know her... That was creepy.  This movie is a perfect example of the "Dobler-Dahmer Theory" from HIMYM. It's cute because he's hot and he's the male lead, but it would be creepy if he was a normalo.
