On Tuesday I was taking an Amtrak home from NYC, ~9 hour trip so I hunkered down in the diner car with my laptop for some gaming/YouTube. I ended up hanging out with a farmer named Yakov and then us and another lady one at a time broke out our various liquors and made a party of it.
As much as I generally hate everything all the time, you can't experience life if you don't live.
That sounds lovely!
Free oat milk cured my depression.
So many girls have no idea that I was ready to give a beat down to the creepy people around them. If you see a girl alone in a place where they're vulnerable to harassment or attack, keep an eye on them, it could one day save someone's life.
You might be the creepy person if you're constantly keeping eyes on girls in vulnerable places.
Ah yes, me a girl, being creepy by keeping an eye on other girls.. Okay.
Going on that, when I see others in situations that would make me feel uncomfortable, of course I'm going to keep an eye out so that nothing happens, it's part of the girl code, and you making it weird is weird and shows where your head is..
The ratio on your comment is unexpected. If you notice someone vulnerable, are you just supposed to look the other way so you won’t notice if something happens?
I know like, if I see a child walking around without a parent, I keep an eye on them until I see that they have someone with them. But I guess these people would say that makes me a pedo or something.
Is it unexpected? If they were a guy then the comment is much creepier than for a girl. Which is what I incorrectly assumed and I guess lots of others did too.
So many girls have to deal with people leering whenever they're out and about, seems more likely that some random who keeps glancing over would be one of those (even if your intentions were well meaning). The issue is really about deciding someone is vulnerable I guess, if they're bleeding out in a deserted alley then obviously help, but if they're enjoying a night out and haven't asked for help then leave them to it.
Yeah fair enough mate. I made an incorrect assumption that you were a guy, and there are so many unaware guys thinking they're white knights but are actually just leering, it's more likely they'll make someone feel unsafe than safe.
My bad, sorry! Genuine misunderstanding.
