after a night class i am walking out to my car and no one is around. i had parked in a far off parking lot without thought. walking to my car, a guy walks up besides me and starts talking, hitting on me. i didnt know who he was, never saw him before. i was really uncomfortable, looking around for other people. there was no one. i am trying to appease him in niceness (what us girls were taught), but, also make it clear that i have no interest. he follows along. he will not go away. as i walk further and further to isolation. i think, do i need to turn around and go back to people. would i be able to. do i hurry to my car. scream? i have keys positioned to fight off (like that would do any good). as i continue to walk quickly to the car.

i get in the car, and he holds the door open, and continues to talk.

there is not mutual interaction.

once i got the door shut, and locked i thought geeez..... i did that all wrong. i was totally setting myself up for trouble. my bad.

lucky me he was not thinking violence or rape.

i guess he assumed since he wasnt, i should know he was not. that is not what happens guys. you know you are not going to do anything wrong. a girl/woman does NOT know. and you put them in a really, not cute and fun, uncomfortable, scary position.

so, when you ignore a womans concern, shrug it off, make jokes about it, it really says a lot about how receptive to women you truly are.

i can not believe that grown men do not get it, in this day and time. but, obviously some men do not. i have many stories since i was single a lot of years, and refused to stay locked up in my house once it turned dark. i played with the others, late at night until early in the morning, living in reno, nevada. i am sure most women have a story to tell.

can you share your story, please.
