Okay so i know I don't really write much anymore I swear I want to and I've actually been motivated but I literally have no time right now between school and work and family bonding time (I'm actually very family orientated ) and I just got my laptop back since it was broken but this is something I feel the need to share since I know there are many young, naive and innocent girls who may think that you'd stand up to erts but won't. (Trust me I've been there, said that, haven't done that.)
Okay so anyway, the other day I was starving and called a restaurant to order food for me and my brother and I went to go to pick the food up. The guy that works there is like 60 years old and has a wife and pretty sure kids too. Well I get there and he like winked at me but I brushed it off thinking he's overly friendly (I go there frequently and he's always like that) and then he wouldn't give my card back until I smiled. So I was on my phone, waiting for the food, and he was like "or you're texting" and I said yea and then he said something that I can't remember.
then I went home and my other brother wanted food so I call again, and his wife answers and I gave in the order. I went for my brother cause I felt bad. So I go and the guys there obviously and he said something like I should text him cause I was on my phone again. I was like what. And he said to me "tell me hi or bye, good morning or goodnight" meanwhile I'm thinking what the . Then he starts giving me his number, and he repeated it twice. I told him straight up that I didn't get that. I grabbed the food and started leaving and I hear him say "it'll be our secret. You can tell me anything." My brother was ready to kill he was so mad. And I was ready to cry when I was telling them. Like I was actually scared. This old man, whose wife is working in the back and I'm pretty they have kids, is hitting on me in the most creepy way.
But my point in telling you this, don't let creepy guys hit on you. If you have a weird vibe coming off of them stay clear. Trust your gut. It's most likely not wrong. Don't brush things off as overly friendly that was my mistake. Be mean. Put on your face. Stand up for yourself. I wish I did and I regret it. Don't let anyone treat you any less than what you deserve.
Also, if you see a guy being too close to someone who is clearly uncomfortable with them, step in. You don't have to tell the guy off just act like you know the person. Start a conversation, trust me they'll be relieved. I've done that before and the girl was so happy she bought me a drink as a thank you. I'm still friends with her. But please, don't be scared.
If you have to see the person and you can't avoid it, take someone with you. Like I said, trust your gut.
Sorry for the long post, but I felt like this needed to be said.
