Thinking of writing a book called Not Kidnapped Yet, detailing all of the times old men have tried to get me to follow them. It’s happened three times in the past month, including today, and its starting to feel like a bad omen.
#today it was a dude on the train. i was literally watching a show and he stopped me to talk which i'll always talk#then when he got to his stop he's was like you're coming with me right#are you sure? we're getting on so well#which i guessed there was something up because he told me i looked like his ethiopian ex#and that ethiopians are really beautiful (which i'm not ethiopian anyway but thnx)#also that swiss women are too closed off for his taste#and i was like i'd like to get back to taskmaster#he didn't speak much english we were speaking in german and french#earlier this month a man stopped me as i was walking to work carrying bags#he first drove next to me and then pulled over and completely blocked the sidewalk#he came back to tell me my bags looked heavy#he asked me if i wanted to ride with him and asked me where i was going#and after i kinda tried to ignore and keep walking he asked if i wanted to get coffee with him and his boldness astounds me#in august a guy got a hold of my work card and sent me a very long email#one friend didn't believe me about the attention until i was asked twice when we were together in different instances to be photographed#(which in one case i ended up with very hilarious pictures of me in a coat on a harley davidson in bern switzerland)#and the other was halloween and i ended up getting my butt slapped so no more pics thnx#had a guy following me with a video camera in annecy france and then twice followed on the way home and to the port#and this is just the super inappropriate attention not including the basic cat calls#the final thing is that i feel bad complaining abt it because people don't always believe me since it happens mostly when im alone#OR i'm told it's a compliment but like sAFETY is nice too and the privilege of not being bothered#it's literally a poc woman thing here though i'm sure#personal#mine#text
