This happened a little bit ago but i wanted to share it somewhere. I work alone and in new cities all the time. I was walking down the streat and a man followed behind me. Broad day light, shouting nonsense. He was likely unwell, that dosent make it much better for me though. He was a good 20-30 feet back and i was just trying to walk faster than him. A random man who was walking a few feet ahead of me stopped walking until i was next to him, then told me he’d walk next to me until the other guy left me alone. And he did, luckily we were going more or less the same direction.
Im not a small woman, and actually i was taller than the guy who stopped, but it dosent matter. It was a really kind thing for him to do, just helping be sure another person was safe. We talked a little as we walked, and then he went on his way.
Ive met a lot of bad men and a lot of good men and sometimes its easy to lose sight of the good because of the bad. Im blessed to have several really cool men in my life but its always nice to meet another good person.

I was followed by a guy in the grocery store for the first time since transitioning. I’m a fit lady and like my gym time. He wasn’t large and I probably could still flatten him but it was definitely unnerving.
I’m glad someone helped you.
