Sorry for the double post, but I think this is EXTREMELY important for the ladies of this board to read:
Be VERY careful who you let walk you home at night, especially if you live in a city. I wasn't completely together on Sat, and I slipped a bit on the subway stairs (mostly 'cause I don't wear heels). A guy asked me if I was alright, and we started casually chatting as we walked to our places. I realized he lived down the street from me. I was not at all into him, and there was something about him that threw me off, but I couldn't quite place it. We get to my apt and he asks for my number- I don't want to give it, but he does that thing where he checks to make sure it rang. I'm like 'It's ok, I don't have to respond.' He texts me twice, I don't answer. I wake up this morning to an angry 9-page rambling message about how I 'owe' him for him 'helping me home' (Uhh, no, I got there on my own two stable feet, thanks. Just because I slipped on the stairs doesn't mean I'm shwasty-face), that I'm unintelligent and a whole bunch of curse words because I didn't respond and he hopes I fall down the stairs. I am TERRIFIED. He knows where I live. He also knows my roommate and I have a dog, and that she's really friendly (so she's not a deterrent). Please, PLEASE be careful ladies. While I know what's happened/happening to me can be outside the norm, it's better to be safe than to be this scared.
