this happens in a public park.

first time this happens to me afaik. I was just stretching with black leggings and a t-shirt. I noticed him 100 yards away walking around but always looking at me. Upon making eye contact he would look away but as soon as I turned to stretching, he’d look at me.

He started slowly approaching me and at one point stood at like 15 yards from me, but still separated by a fence. At that point I decided to cut my work out short and left avoiding eye contact.

I consider myself lucky because he didn’t follow me.

What scared me the most is he was bigger and taller than me.

If this ever happened to you, how did you react? How do I react next time this happens?

    I don’t disagree with the advice to trust your gut, so I can’t blame you for doing the same thing.

        If what I’m saying even remotely resembles something your caricature of the “other” might say, then the only logical conclusion, of course, is that I must be exactly like them.

            Oh no! A random person on the internet thinks I’m something I’m not. How can I ever recover from this.

                No need to apologize. I’m only amused by this.

                Please, tell me more about me. It’s my favourite subject.

                    You already said “I’ll take that as a yes” and that’s more than fine by me. You’re free to think of me what you want. I’m not interested in trying to convince you otherwise.
