But that did NOT give him the right to rub against me, offer me a drink from his can of beer every five seconds and ask me to come back to his place. It would have been better if one of the men around me at the stop would have stuck up for the 21 year old woman who looks more like a thirteen year old, instead of simply standing there pretending not to see it. Good to know that chivelry is still alive...

Everything. Everything about that gives me the creeps, especially the part about you looking like a 13-year-old. He probably thought you were a kid! Well, I know I would have gone all Chris Hanson on his a$$ if I was there!

Perhaps a little vial of pepper spray would be a wise investment...

I hadn't thought about the whole childlike thing really until you pointed that out Lovely *shudder*. I've always looked too young for my age and I think I'll be around fourty five before I can go to a bar and be served without ID lol. I was lucky I had my wits about me really. He thought my iPod was an iPhone so I pretended to get a call and walked away. Had to wait another hour for my bus because he was getting on the one I would have gotten onto but it was worth it. Didn't want to risk him figuring out where I lived. I've never heard of Pepper Spray being sold in England but I'll see if I can get it imported lol. Worth it if it keeps myself and my iPod free of Drunken Bum Chiggers. I was lucky I had my hand sanitizer spray with me (a bit germaphobic) so I could spray my bud before I put it back in my ear :s

Oh, trust me, you won't be saying that in another ten years. Youth is wasted on the young, as the old saying goes...

I didn't realize you were in England. I assumed you all were a more civilized lot than we are here, but I suppose crazy does not recognize borders (or large bodies of water).

Oh gahd, Silver Springs, I feel your pain. Granted I'm only 16 (17 tomorrow, NOOOOOO) but I look a lot younger than I am and they always come up to me saying "How does it feel to be so beautiful" I often scurry away, sometimes swear or I have been known to say "I don't know, you've got your beer goggles on!" They creep the hell out of me *shudders*
