So, I had a crazy weird day today and it left me a bit shaken up, worried, scared, etc. I guess I want to know why would someone do it this way where the receiver can feel threatened even if they might not intend it that way.
I got to work a bit early today so was charging my phone in the car for a bit. I was also texting, checking/sending work emails, and just doing work related things on phone mostly. I usually ignore my surroundings unless something just grabs my attention as in it just seems funny, strange, out of place, etc. So that was the case today. I was staring at my phone and from the corner of my eye I noticed a car drive up to me very slowly and I ignored it at first thinking oh they're waiting for someone maybe or thinking where to park or staring at their phone or something like that. I expected it to drive away. But I think it was like there for like 2 minutes at least since I had time to send at least 1 email and 1 text. I still ignored it of course since I figured it was gonna leave soon. But then suddenly in my side view I no longer just saw the dark car there but a person! My mind quickly realized the guy came out of the car as it was still running and started going towards me. He was like 6 feet away maybe. I knew he was coming to me. My mind went into panic mode as I turned my head to face him. He saw me and lifted his hand up. He was holding this rose in the picture. I was relieved it wasn't a gun or something but still felt scared and stuff because I was alone there. But I decided to just say thank you and act busy like I was in a hurry which I was almost especially in a hurry to get away from him. So he gave me the rose and was just saying he likes doing random acts like that. I closed my car door after saying thank you to look busy on phone and luckily he walked back to the car and drove away. Why would someone go for you when your in a car though? Isn't that usually if they're gonna hurt you?! You should meet people in public not by trying to get into their car or get them to come out. That's terrifying! Now I'm wondering if he'll come back since he knows where I park and since he says likes doing random acts like that. I better purchase that pepper spray and taser in my shopping cart. This is his rose that I threw out. But what to do if he comes back? Like tomorrow? He seems like he's 45-60 years and has gray hair.
