What could you have done differently in this situation?

TW: Sexual harassment, attempted sexual assault, stalking, panic attack

Posting this on behalf of my friend because she's still too shaken up to write about it herself. Everything below is from her perspective.

I honestly still can't wrap my head around what happened last night.

My friends and I were driving home around midnight when we decided to stop at a shake place near our house to grab drinks for our siblings. We live a little outside the city, close to the highway, so there aren't many places open that late.

The place was pretty crowded.

As soon as one of my friends and I walked in, I noticed a group of around six guys staring at us. Not just looking over once or twice—they were constantly watching us. At first, I tried to ignore it because, unfortunately, it's something we're used to. I figured they'd stop after a few seconds.

The rest of my friends didn't notice anything at first. Two of them had already ordered. After a minute or so, another friend realized the guys were still staring at us.

We decided we'd just take our order and leave.

Then one of the guys suddenly walked up behind one of my friends and tried to grab her ass.

Before he could reach her, I instinctively pulled her toward me. Everything happened so fast, but that was the moment we realized this wasn't just some creepy guys staring at us anymore.

Our order was ready, so we rushed outside.

Our car was parked behind theirs. As we started walking toward it, they all got into their car, reversed it, and moved it in the direction we were heading.

Something felt really off, so instead of getting into our car, we turned around and went back inside the shake place.

A couple of minutes later, two of the guys came inside while the others stayed in the car. They didn't order anything. They just stood there and kept staring at us the entire time.

After waiting for a while, we decided to try leaving again.

They left too.

We got into our car, but nobody could bring themselves to start it. We all just sat there in complete silence for what was probably 5 to 10 minutes. We were hoping they'd leave.

Eventually, they turned their car off.

The second that happened, we started ours and drove off as fast as we could.

Our car is a manual, and the friend driving had a full-blown panic attack. She was shaking so badly that she couldn't think straight or shift gears properly. The friend sitting behind her had to reach forward and help change gears while she focused on keeping the car on the road.

About three or four seconds after we left, they started following us.

They were right behind us.

Instead of staying on the highway, we took roads with lots of turns, hoping we'd have a better chance of losing them since they'd have to slow down around every corner. We couldn't even drive as fast as we wanted because our driver was barely holding herself together.

While all of this was happening, I called my family and shared my live location.

Somehow, we made it close to home.

The guys seemed to think we'd gone into a nearby apartment complex, so they kept driving around that area for another 15 minutes before finally leaving.

We reported everything to our society's security afterward.

The part that still scares me the most?

Their car didn't even have a license plate.

I keep replaying everything in my head. What if we'd ignored that gut feeling and gotten into the car the first time? What if I hadn't pulled my friend away in time?

I've never been that terrified in my life.

TL;DR:My friends and I stopped to buy shakes around midnight. A group of guys kept staring at us, one of them tried to grab my friend's ass, and when we left, they followed us in their car. Our driver had a panic attack while trying to drive a manual, but we somehow managed to get home safely. The men kept circling the area afterward, and their car didn't even have a license plate.

Edit: My friend originally texted me all of this in Hindi while she was still trying to process everything. I used ChatGPT to translate it into English for Reddit, so if some of the wording feels a little off, that's why. The events themselves are exactly as she described them.\*

Creep Incident in Rajkot, Gujarat

Kal main aur mere friends bahar gaye the. Hum around 12 baje ghar wapas aa rahe the, but humne socha siblings ke liye shakes le lete hain.
Humara ghar highway side pe hai, thoda main city se door, toh raat ko wahan roads kaafi quiet hoti hain. Ghar se around 1 km pe ek shake place hai, toh hum wahan ruk gaye. Jagah kaafi crowded thi.
Jaise hi main aur meri ek friend andar gaye, humne notice kiya ki ek group of guys humein continuously stare kar raha tha. Especially mujhe aur meri ek aur friend ko. Maine notice kiya, but maine socha 10-15 seconds mein apne kaam mein lag jayenge, kyunki unfortunately staring toh itni normalized ho chuki hai.
Mere baaki 3 friends ko initially kuch pata hi nahi tha. Unmein se 2 ne order bhi de diya. Thodi der baad meri dusri friend ne bhi notice kiya ki woh log continuously humein hi dekh rahe the. Humne decide kiya ki order lete hi nikalte hain aur ghar jaake hi shake piyenge.
Tabhi unmein se ek banda meri friend ke paas aaya aur uski ass grab karne ki try ki. Uske reach karne se pehle hi maine usse apni taraf kheench liya.
Order aaya aur hum turant bahar nikal gaye.
Humari car unki car ke piche parked thi. Jaise hi hum apni car ki taraf ja rahe the, woh log bhi apni car mein baith gaye aur reverse leke us direction mein aa gaye jahan hum ja rahe the. Humein laga kuch toh gadbad hai, toh hum wapas shake place ke andar chale gaye.
Thodi der baad unmein se 2 bande andar aa gaye, aur baaki 4 car mein hi baithe rahe. Yeh dono andar bhi bas continuously humein stare karte rahe.
Kuch time baad hum phir nikle. Obviously woh log bhi nikal gaye.
Hum car mein baith gaye, but kisi ne car start nahi ki. Sab literally blank ho gaye the. Hum 5-10 minutes tak wahi baithe rahe, jab tak unhone apni car off nahi kar di.
Jaise hi unhone car off ki, humne turant car start ki aur full speed mein nikal gaye. Around 100-110 km/h.
Problem yeh thi ki car manual thi. Jo meri friend drive kar rahi thi, usse panic attack aa gaya. Woh gears tak properly nahi samajh paa rahi thi. Peeche baithi meri dusri friend uske liye gears change kar rahi thi.
Aur sirf 3-4 seconds baad woh log bhi humare peeche aa gaye. Literally humare bilkul peeche.
Humne decide kiya ki highway pe seedha bhaagne ke bajaye ek aisa route lete hain jahan kaafi turns hon. Turns ka advantage mila kyunki unhe slow hona pad raha tha aur humein thoda gap mil jaata tha. Hum waise bhi zyada speed maintain nahi kar sakte the because driver ki condition already bahut kharab thi.
Isi beech maine ghar pe call kiya, live location share ki, aur police ko bhi inform kiya.
Kisi tarah hum ghar ke paas pahunch gaye. Un logon ko laga hum kisi random apartment mein gaye hain, toh woh around 15 minutes tak us area mein hi ghoomte rahe.
Police aate hi woh wahan se bhaag gaye.
Baad mein hum security ke paas gaye aur sab report kiya.
Aur sabse shocking baat? Unki car pe number plate hi nahi thi.

TL;DR: Kal raat around 12 baje hum siblings ke liye shakes lene ruk gaye. Wahan ek group of guys humein continuously stare kar raha tha, aur unmein se ek ne meri friend ko touch karne ki try bhi ki, but maine usse time pe pull kar liya. Hum nikle toh woh log humare peeche aa gaye. Hum wapas shop ke andar chale gaye, but baad mein phir nikle toh unhone car se humara chase karna start kar diya. Driver ko panic attack aa gaya, phir bhi kisi tarah hum turns wale route se nikalte hue ghar pahunch gaye. Maine ghar pe location share ki aur police ko call kiya. Woh log ghar ke paas bhi kaafi der tak ghoomte rahe aur police aate hi bhaag gaye. Aur haan, unki car pe number plate bhi nahi thi.

Posting it on behalf of one female friend and its yesterday night incident and its not even that late night.

is it me or this pricing gives ick?

Some local rajkot 2nd hand mobile shop - i mean wahape yhi same phone koi bechne jayega iska half price bolega wo ( ofc they have to earn profit ) but this level crazy pricing😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 koi c hi hoga jo in sb condition and pricing pe ye prices dega its hell overpriced

Update - this is not the crazy part , real crazy part is when some shops give you their bill and after a year or two when u go to sell that phone no one accepts it stating that this xyz shop is full of scams and they replace all good parts with bad and sell phone etc etc so dono taraf se loss….

Anyone been through this?

I will prefer you not to read if you are emotional available person its just for emotionally unavailable person

So, I want to just take it out of my chest, anywhere, not in front of any known ones. I’m a terrible person, not telling because I need sympathy or your attention, but so what? I did something very wrong. I always do something wrong. I’m not this person, nor was I like that before. So, here’s a little context.

Consider one girl named P we were good friends hanging out twice or thrice in week and yeah it was just friends no feelings from either of side so she considered me as her bestf and told me everything trusts to me with everything. It was solely friendship no relationship but since i was sad going through some things ( idk maybe its just a excuse ) i ghosted her straight for 9-10 days ( not a single text + she went to hometown ) now idk why but i always endup fucking others life and my life in guilt always its the same loop never ending

Now, second, consider a girl named H. I met her 3 days ago on Instagram. She casually asked in a GC if anyone wanted to be a reassuring boyfriend. I said yes. I didn’t know things would escalate so quickly. I just went with the flow, and now she’s so damn attached. It’s just been 3 days, guys. I don’t know if it’s real or not, but we talked a lot, met twice in a day, and it felt like an actual relationship. But honestly, nothing excites me. I feel like I was not this person. I used to be a real blunt and honest person rather than being fake. So yeah, her life is going to be fucked by me too. It’s because the relationship was built on lust. Yeah, it’s a big mistake.

Problem is me, that ik the problem but the thing is its a loop i really wanna make out of it else the more it happens the more deep i will fall in guilt of ocean and someday i would start hating myself.

Three things i discovered that - i can’t love anyone , i am very bad at relationships deep down i want one and onlyyy one long term but i am bad so. I am bad at friendships. I have one biggest guilt which i am carrying from 2 years and ig i haven’t overcome it so that might be the cause idk. I also think i was better person before i was emotionally available but now from last 6 months idc people come and go from life ( except few ) and no attachements i do or say i afraid of making any attachments now. But i have few friends ( hurts alot in smaller actions too ) but i don’t express but i care for few ppl so much 🫠🫠i have a good heart but yeah i fuckedup enough ppl and ghosted countless ppl to clear the criteria of being terrible person

I don’t share problems w anyone i myself isolate when things get heavy i take meds and pull myself out but in this type of situations this loop never ending i can’t

i feel better and worst at same time

i feel better and worst at same time - worst because i am getting mild anxiety anytime any place and low confidence and insomnia and restlessness and random thoughts but better in way that i am getting to know myself which i was actually supressing , i actually am scared now of losing few of friends which i made , i never express or show care for anyone like actual one but deep down i am sensitive person so yeah i wish they stay but i would never tell em, idk but i also feel sometime that i would be an attention seeker to someone if i ever express my feeling to someone so i decided to talk w random ppl on reddit but yeah still i feel that i am an attention seeker but i am not, i also discovered that i can’t talk to any girl one on one anxiety hits hard ( maybe due to ssri ) if its a group then milder one ,also i wanna share that even tho idc i am sad or happy or not but i developed a habit that i am alr living away from family so i wnna live by myself but recently i think my parents want me to stay w them but i can’t i don’t want to its very small thing but i can’t stay idk why but i want to and don’t want to maybe ( ps - i don’t have any bad habits like cig, joint or any liquid substances ) but i just feel i am better if i am alone ( even if i am not i will figure it out )

- avoid grammar mistakes too lazy to give ai for rewrite

Feeling abit odd (off ) ( rant, ignore it )

Actually since a lot of time I am feeling very different. Seems like I have changed a lot, but when people say I am changed, I refuse it. So from the last 2 nights, I am not able to sleep properly. I mean it feels like insomnia. It’s like I am getting random thoughts while sleeping, like random flashbacks of anyone or any moments which I sometimes even forget, and that comes into my mind like visualization type. And after 2-3 hrs of this (mind it, I don’t use phone after 2 am), yet I am awake, restless, and not able to sleep. This is one problem.
Another is, I was very self dependent. I could go eat alone at any place, but nowadays even stepping out without someone feels heavy, or I just end up bedrotting. I stress abt a lot of unnecessary things. I don’t have any major issue, but yeah I took some SSRI few times, maybe it’s a side effect, but it feels good and bad at the same time. Idk if anybody can relate.
Hand tremors occur occasionally
