Actress singer-actress Miranda Cosgrove has been granted a restraining order against a male fan who threatened to commit suicide over his unrequited love.

The 21-year-old former 'iCarly' star requested the restraining order after the fan named Joshua Stockton allegedly had been following the actress endlessly using clues from social media posts. He reportedly also went to her campus at USC to see her, according to TMZ.

Stockton's obsession is not limited to the alleged stalking. He sent the actress gifts and later got upset because the packages were returned unopened.

Stockton then sent her a photo of the alleged boxes and his bandaged wrist on Twitter, writing, "Frankly I'm tired of love, and my heart is ready to give out. Maybe I'll finish the job I started."
 

Stockton said he would kill himself with a hairdryer in a bathtub.
