I(16m) have been looking what i could do after graduating school and realised that this all is shit how can somebody be ok with Working a 9 to 5 Job sitting in a Office Coming home just to do this pointless shit the next morning again. Always do what your Boss says only having the Weekends and 4 weeks per year Off and wasting your life doing the same shit over and over again. I mean thats One of the most depressing things i've ever heard of

Sorry for errors english isnt my Standart language

I was at a bus stop yesterday evening at a busy intersection and this man around my age approached me and went “hello, hi, excuse me, excuse me miss, hello, hi”. I ignored him like I do with all male strangers because if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years it’s that as soon as you acknowledge a man then they will NOT leave you alone. Eventually, since it was a busy area and I felt relatively safe, I loudly told him to stop talking to me. I said “fuck off, don’t talk to me. I don’t want to talk to you.” He was pretty offended, asking why I was so rude and told me I should be nice. I decided to leave and find another way home so I wouldn’t have to be around him any longer. As I was walking away he looked at me and once again told me I should “be nice”. I yelled at him to fuck off. Everyone at the stop looked at me. I’m so goddamn tired of men not taking a hint. Or just not respecting boundaries. If you try to talk to me or get my attention more than once or twice and I am clearly ignoring you, then LEAVE ME ALONE. I don’t know what your intentions are. I yelled at him because I realized that I need to stand up for myself more and I figure that if they’re going to harass me then I may as well make a scene, so that if I need to help then maybe others will notice and step in. I kind of feel like I’m crazy and rude for reacting the way I did but honestly I just did what I needed to make myself feel safe.

Keeping it short: u/awkwardtheturtle has been removed.

Now, the amount of vitriol I have received over the past 24 hours has been insane. I've been on this site for more than a decade and I have to say that was pretty much one of my worst days here. Actual death threats have been sent to me. I think you guys need a couple of minutes to reflect on this incredibly childish behavior, regardless of what the offending party was doing.

It doesn't help that I was very sick yesterday and I could barely keep up with all the vitriol that was going on. We tend to forget there's an actual human behind the screen.

That's all. Have a good weekend.
