I Was Just Followed by a Man Playing Porn on his Phone

It's almost 9pm where I am.

In order to get to the train from my job I have to walk through a street that is not well lit at all.

It's considered a very good neighborhood, if not one of the best around. I have walked it hundreds of times. Despite my colossally shitty week, I was really enjoying the light warm rain. It's actually my favorite type of weather.

Coming towards me were two men. They were playing porn on one of their phones. It was pretty loud. I live in a city, so people being weird is a common theme. Since they were walking past me I avoided them and I thought that was that.

It wasn't. A few seconds later, someone is walking behind me closely and I hear porn playing on their phone, loudly.

I turn around, and I go "What the fuck dude?"

"I want to fuck you. You're pretty. Want to fuck?"

"No I want you to fucking kill yourself" (not proud of that one but adrenaline was sure of it so it happened)

I started to try and cross the street. I at least got into what little light was illuminating the road.

He continued to play the porn and follow me, and that's when I decided I was fucking done.

I turned around, stood straight with my legs strong on the pavement, looked him in the eye raised my fist and screamed at the top of my lungs "I WILL FUCKING HURT YOU"

He ran away. And I walked to the train crying.

I'm genderfluid. I'm someone who is really fucking hurting right now. My birthday is next month. I love light, warm rain. I've been raped. I've been on my own since 19. I love video games.

I am so much more than your next thrill.

I fucking hate this.
