Just Sayin....

Okay this is just something I want to say to all you men out there.

When you hear a woman in a stairwell with her boots clanking on each step as she walks down the stairs - by all means NEVER run down the stairs after her!

Yesterday as I was walking from the 5th floor down in the parking garage at work I started to hear a man's footsteps coming down the stairs behind me. He started slowly then started to run down the stairs. My heart rate increased and I was about ready to pull out all I learned in Kickboxing and self defense class to take this guy down. But as he approached me on the second floor he stopped and stayed 4 stairs behind me - what the heck is that all about? I was one flight up from the exit so I quickly made my way down biting my tongue the whole way. I so wanted to tell him to be a little smarter and not scare women!! Once I made it to the door, his hand reached around me and helped push the door open - by now I am so annoyed and as he said Good Morning I just stopped and looked at him as he walked away.

Men - here's a little tip - don't run up behind women that are alone in a stairwell and don't reach around her to open a door unless you know her or she is inviting you into her space - not a nice thing to do!! Just sayin...

So my day didn't end there with weirdo's. On my way home from work I was on the Freeway and I started to notice that a white truck next to me was staying even with me as I would speed up or slow down. I purposely tested this by slowing way down and then speeding up - he continued to be my shadow. Again my heart rate started to rise - I finally looked over and he gave me a little wink and wave. I just turned away and hit my breaks and got into a different lane and he finally went on his way. Do men really think that's a cool thing to do? Just sayin...
