So uh...I'm scared. I want to use the word “terrified” but that would be pushing it, so let's stick to scared.
I woke up at an unGodly hour today, despite going to sleep late. It was around 5ish in the morning and it was one of those bullshit thing and you can't go back to sleep. So cause I can't go back to sleep, I decided to do some room cleaning and then round 6.5ish decided to go do my laundry.
We have a public laundry here where I live. It's in this badly lighted room with a sensor light that flickers all the goddamn time in the name of “energy saving.” So it was round 6.15 ish this morning, it was really cold and windy...and dark. Winter is brutal this year. I was all alone in the laundry room, the light was flickering and I was measuring the detergent when he showed up. Who?
Creepy-ass Gym Dude.
For those who are new here, you can read all about the creepiness here and here. But the short version is this: This guy watched me at the gym when I go there to workout, hits on me and then followed me home. Like he fucken followed me home. I'm not even exaggerating. I have stopped going to the gym completely because of him. So yes, creepy doesn’t even begin to explain the extent of this fuckkery.
So again, it was 6.15 ish, it was dark, the light was flickering and there's just the two of us in the laundry room. I think he was coming back or either going for a morning run, walked by the laundry room and saw me. The thing was......he stopped and stood at the only entrance and exit of the room hence blocking it, leaned on the frame and stared at me. I looked up from measuring the detergent and he was there, leaning on the frame and stared at me like it was the most normal thing to do in the world.
I didn't know what to do. I stood there holding the detergent box and just looked at him. I mean, wtf, he didn't even say hi. Just stared at me. I was scared you guys. My whole body tensed, and all I could think of was “Fuck OMG there's no way out. There's no way out.”
Then I said “Hey, how are you?” Kinda wanted to get rid of the intense creepiness and maybe if I get him to talk he won't go all batshit insane on me.
He didn't replied. He just stood there. Staring.
I was overwhelmed with fear. I mean, it was really early in the morning, it was really quite. He stood there blocking the door and this guy, he's like 6'2? 6'3? He's not big, but lean and muscular. And I'm there all 5'1 and holding a detergent box and with no other exit. Physically, if anything were to happened, he has the advantage. I was, scared. I was thinking “If he does anything, motherfucking throw the detergent in his eyes then hit him in the balls! Hit him in the fucking balls!”
He stood there a little longer. Stared at me a little longer. Then he left.
I dunno how long it lasted. I dunno when he showed up. But fuck, fuck, that was so creepy. I mean, what the fuck right? I was so scared you guys. I mean, why would anyone do that?
I was shivering when he finally left. I don't think it was from winter alone. He didn't actually do anything but this is considered harassment right? I mean, why would anyone do that? Shit. I let him down easy, it wasn't I was a bitch or something. But that was scary. Holy shit you guys, that was so scary.
I'm still really shaken up from this.

holy shit! if it was me, i would have shat brix!! that's just..creepy. more than creepy. can't think of a word to describe it.
Hey!!
It might sound like over-kill, but it's definitely worth filing a police complaint or report.
Just head over to the police station, talk to the officer on duty (the dude behind the desk)
& tell him what's going on.
He'll be able to advise you on whether or not you should file a complaint or report, or what the dude needs to do before it becomes harassment or whatever.
Please go to the police station?
Please please?
I agree CD - report report !! :( Take care of fabulous self.
AlwizHyper:

Anon:
I did not go to the police, but I spoke with my campus counsellor. The one that takes care of international students. So...just gotta be extra cripsy careful from now on.
Faye:
You too darls!
You should not have to alter any of your plans for anything this is a free country for both women and men.
Having said that you have to do so until the Police have a word with him, he understands what they are saying to him, and he stays away and never frightens you again.
It sounds like he doesn't get messages, subtle or blatant, not a nice profile you present here.
