Joann, I know that had to be such a scary feeling! I'm sorry it happened to u and SO HAPPY the way it turned out!
I won't go out dressed alone for a number of reasons. One is, I can't seem to get past the idea that what I'm doing is somehow WRONG! And, that people will somehow SENSE that if they know I'm a CD! So, of course I wouldn't want to attract attention!
If I had been out dressed in your situation, I would have probably done the same things as u!
But, then I asked myself what I would have done if it happened while I was in drab! I realized I would have handled it COMPLETELY DIFFERENTLY!
First, if it was a store with others around, I would have walked rite up to the guy and asked if he was following me. If he answered or acted strangely, I would have told him to leave immediately or I will have someone call security or the police! And, if he didn't, I would!
Why wouldn't I do the same dressed? Oh yeah! A CD with a stalker! Bring in the police, maybe the media?
Whether or NOT we would be treated fairly is not my point. Just the fact that we mite WORRY about being found out and treated badly IS!
Does anyone ELSE see how UNFAIR this is? :brolleyes:
