Can we just live even a little without feeling unsafe all the time?
Tonight I had a biggg fight with my long term boyfriend and genuinely feel like I might be going through a breakup for real this time. All I wanted was to get out of my head and just be by myself, eat a little meal, have a little beer and come back home. So I went to this food and drinks place in a (supposedly) nice area. I live in Pune. I wont go anywhere shady obviously cause thats not even what a girl would imagine doing.
So, the moment I enter and sit at a table, I see this fucking creep ( next to my table with couple of other men) staring at my soul with the creepiest smile I have seen in my life on his face. Like I only just sat down and this happens. Just nonstop staring. I am sooo soo drained even typing this man.. I said something like dude can you please not do that?
And this man just would not stop. No embarrassment, no looking away. How can they be so shameless man? I just completely lost it, got up and I walked off, drove back home and now crying myself to sleep. I am 26 year old adult for fucks sake, will I ever be able to just be? It is so damn exhausting.
The worst part is its so normal that I feel this rant is pointless. Cause what are we gona do about it?
