Creepy/ awkward moments...

[(Anonymous)]

So F!S, what are some creepy and/ or awkward moments you've survived?

I'll tell you mine...

Yesterday I was sitting at the bus stop reading my book when an old man, clearly in his seventies, sits in the empty spot next to me on the bench. I looked up from my book and nodded at him in acknowledgement because I'm polite like that I guess and went back to reading. The next thing I know this old man is CARESSING the top of my foot which isn't covered by my ballet flats. I then also notice that he's peaking into my bag because he asks for some Pringles, the can of which is sitting in the top of my bag. Needless to say I was all WTF, and avoided the entire situation by jumping on the next bus.

[biohazardgirl]

One time I was on the bus with my (now ex) boyfriend and I accidentally dropped a library book and a lady across from us picked it up and flipped through it and then started up a discussion with us all about her personal life and her various medications

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[szarburus]

I got on the bus to go home from my friend's house and some guy tried to talk to me when I walked by. When I ignored him, he proceeded to stare at me for a while and when that didn't work, he came over and sat beside me and started asking me how I was, what my name was and what my plans were. Thankfully when I lied and said I was busy he left me alone.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[forgottenjester]

The bus stop is the worst.

Uhm, one time at comic con when I was sixteen I was chilling with my friends when a guy sat down near me and started talking to me about his familiars and the magic he had done recently. I don't know why he thought I would care. Then he started caressing my leg near my knee. NONE of my friends helped me and I was in such shock I didn't know what to do. I spent the rest of the con glued to my mother.

The next year when I wasn't around a guy ran up and dry humped my friend. She removed him, grabbed him by the neck and told him to leave but she was so shocked she didn't know what to do either.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[mekkio]

Yep, that's creepy.

Last Thursday I was at Toys'R'Us with my four year nephew looking around and killing time. We were in the Lego section when this large, mountainous man comes walking by. I didn't think anything of it. Probably some dad or uncle buying a toy for some kid or maybe he was Lego fan. Then my nephew and I went to the pre-school toy section and who comes sauntering by? The man. Again, didn't think of anything of it. Then when to the car section. And he right behind me. Then went to the girl section and, yes, he's there to. I look at him and he refuses to look me in the eye. Instead he keeps glancing at my nephew. I take my nephew to the Animal Planet section for one last time to see if this man will indeed follow me there and if he did, I would go to the cashier and report him. Apparently, I didn't need to do so because the staff appears like ninja around me, acting like they are stacking things while they confront the guy if he needs anything. Maybe they were watching him too? I didn't see what happened next because my nephew had picked out a toy and I hurried out paying for it.

I was never scared. In fact, I was angry. Because 1) you threaten my nephew, you get the claws. And 2) I couldn't help but think it is creeps like that guy that give men a bad name. Like my nephew will grow up and he can't go into a toy store alone without people side eyeing him. Thinking that he could be a potential pervert because he is a man.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

I was on the bus with my purse in my lap, and this guy who looks like a fifty-year-old ex-basketball-player gets on the bus and sits down next to me - and puts his hand on my leg, right below my purse.

And starts scooting it up, like a millimeter at a time.

I could not figure out if he was trying to feel me up or steal my wallet! I mean, either way, ick, but I genuinely couldn't figure out which he was doing.

After about six blocks of this, I finally made eye contact with the driver in the mirror and then yelled "Keep your goddamn hands to yourself!" at the guy. The guy looked at me like I'd just insulted his mother, and then whipped out his cellphone and proceeded to have a very loud conversation with someone during which he called me a bitch, but at least he didn't try and touch me or my stuff again.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[chocorate]

Too many weird ass bus moments for me. Can't even list all of them.

-Sitting at the back of the bus late at night and having to watch a couple try to not-so-discreetly fondle each other thought their clothes.
-A guy peeing his pants right beside
-Someone having phone sex in a packed university bus
-A woman trying to sit beside me but the bus suddenly moves and she ends up lying/sitting on me
-People pole dancing in a skytrain

This one made me so mad because the creepy/awkwardness was actually brought on by my mom and her best friend, who thought it was hilarious. I was meeting them for lunch, and when I got to the restaurant they were already there. I sat down and they told me how they wanted to fix me up with the waiter and had already told him all about me. Somehow they found out that he had a five month old daughter he was raising by himself because his girlfriend had decided she didn't want to be a mother and took off, and he was looking for a wife to help him raise his baby. As my mom and her friend both knew, I'm barely interested in marriage, and have zero interest whatsoever in kids, but they thought it would be just HILARIOUS to tell this guy all about me. So when he came back to take our orders, I had to sit there awkwardly both pretending they hadn't told me what they did because I didn't want to come out and say anything about it directly, and subtly making it clear that I wasn't at all interested.

Supposedly when I went to the bathroom at one point he told them "hot" I was and how "disappointed" he was that I wasn't interested in marrying him, although I think my mom and her friend just said that to screw with me even more. I was SO pissed at them.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

Oh boy... I attract creeps.

One day, I was walking back home, at night, after meeting up with a friend. The streets (in a neighbourhood usually frequented by prostitutes and pimps at night) were completely empty. A guy walks past and stops me. "Hey pretty lady, I've seen you around and you look really nice. I'd like to get to know you better" Me: Uh that's nice but- "Can I have your number? Please, we should really meet up sometime." Me: Uuhh. I don't have my phone on me, I can't remember it.
Cue a pretty story about how my number changed. He presses and invades my personal bubble in ways I really don't like strangers to get near me at night in an empty street next to a bridge. I babbled a false number and made up excuses to explain why I couldn't meet up with him later. He finally dropped it and I left, I admit I even ran once I thought he couldn't see me anymore, and I made sure he didn't follow me home.

There's also the guy who wanted to date me and confessed his love to me. He was nice but his issues had issues. I rejected him. Gently, at first. The fourth time he tried to get me to date him and tried to get my friends to convince me to date me, I was done being nice. Later, I learnt that he basically thought I should have dated him to humour his sensitive feelings and I'm pretty sure he wrote insults destined to me in Flemish in the margins of his school notes. (Thankfully for him and for me, he saw a therapist afterwards and he is now on medication. He spent a full year glaring daggers in my general direction but now he's much better. We're even sort of friends again.)

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[silverau]

Eww that's creepy and awkward.

Weirdest one for me was when an acquaintance at my college, who was a lot older than me had just broken up with his fiancee a few days ago, asked me if I would look over a paper for him that night. I said yes, but then once we met up he was like "Hey let's go over here to (a certain unlit and usually unoccupied area)." So I looked at his paper, he stared at me the whole time, and then said I looked beautiful, and then after I was done looking at his paper he showed me this slideshow he made that was basically saying that the Pope and Rockefeller wanted to take over the world with genetic engineering... he had all these photoshopped pictures of animals with human parts. And said something like, "You don't have to believe it, but I see what's going on in the world because I'm a political science major!" And then he gave me fake lovey-dovey eyes and asked me out. Really, really awkward.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[themperor]

Mine happened at work.

I had a 17 year old Shih Tzu, who I had had since I was five years old. The night prior we (my family and I) had to put her to sleep.

I go into the office, and my boss (who is a chronic over-sharer) asks me how my night was. I replied: "Not too good, I had to put my dog to sleep last night. And we've had her since I was a little kid."

Her reply: "Yeah, don't they just get kinda pathetic there at the end. I remember when MY HUSBAND was in the hospital dying of cancer..."

She continued saying something. But I couldn't hear her over the "OMGWTF, you just compared my dog to your dead husband!?!"

Srsly. How do you respond to that?

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[shadowrayven]

some many but here's a few

- got out of a club @ 2 am & had a girl grab my boobs ask if they were real & when I said yes she called me a bitch & walked away.
- had a guy stalk me when I work at a grocery store till management banned him
- best friend got drunk fell on him face when we picked him up sat him on chair & was petting his hair saying poor thing he then motor boated my me.

A few months ago I decided to go running one morning. The park I went to is somewhere I go all the time, and I've never felt like it was dangerous before, but that morning it was really empty and I felt like I was being watched. I was debating with myself and trying to decide whether I should leave or if I was just being paranoid and should stay, when I noticed this creepy guy behind me. I starting running a little faster and turned down a different trail hoping to lose him.

Which I realized pretty quick was really, really stupid of me because I was just going deeper into the woods and farther away from the road. I ended up completely lost and just knew that he was going to find me and kill me, but eventually I found my way back to the parking area and after making sure he was nowhere in sight and not following me, I got the hell out of there. I've gone back since then but never in the morning again after that.

I think I was 11 or 12 years old, and I was walking back home from school. A man that must have been at least in his 40s and was going through the garbage said something to me, I didn't catch it, so I stopped and asked what he had said. He looked at me for a moment like I'd said there were fireballs falling from the sky, and then asked if I had the time. I told him and kept walking. A few years later, when I remembered the incident, I realized he'd probably said something sleazy, and felt both amused and creeped at the same time.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[citrinesunset]

One time when I was twelve, I was at this large retail chain store with my mom. She had to go up to the customer service desk, and I waited about fifteen feet away with our shopping cart. All of a sudden, this guy who looked like he was in his mid-twenties and who was a store employee came up close to me and, out of the blue, asked, "Hey, what's your name?" Yes. He was an employee. He had on a store vest and was sweeping the floor. I'm pretty sure he was legit. Everything about it--his demeanor, the way he'd just come up and asked me my name, everything--seemed really skeevy, but I didn't want to actually engage him, so I just walked away and pushed the cart closer to where my mom was. The guy followed me and said, "I didn't hear you. What did you say your name was?" Again, it felt like he was trying to chat me up. I just looked at him in shock and contemplated going right over to my mom. Before I could, this woman who appeared to be his girlfriend came over and started talking to him, and he promptly "forgot" me.

I wasn't scared. Just confused and shocked. I think the fact that the guy seemed to have a girlfriend was the icing on the cake for me. He came across so creepily.

In retrospect, I don't know if I should have talked to a manager or something. But I was twelve, and kind of floored by it. I did tell my mom, though.

I was in a coffee shop with my 13 year old niece. She went to get a sandwich and asked the waiter to toast it.

When he brought the food, he told me, "Your daughter is very pretty. I want to marry her." (Obviously he assumed she was my kid, though of course she wasn't.)

First let me say she looks a LOT younger than she really is. That day she only looked like 10 or 11.

I told him she was THIRTEEN, and his response was, "I'll wait for her until she's 17."

She was so freaked out she refused to go back into that place for a year.

When I was a kid (10 years old) I was riding my bike on the ramps at the local skate park. It was pretty small, with just some basic ramps, and though it was off to the side of the local sports/leisure center, and usually had a bunch of teenagers hanging around, it was empty except for me that day.

An old man on his bike came over and fell off of it, like ten feet away from me. He called to me, told me he couldn't get up, could I help him? I didn't say anything, just pedaled towards the sports center as fast as I could. I looked over my shoulder for just a second, and saw him get up on his own easily, getting back on his bike. He started to head in my direction.

I flipped out and pedaled so fast I went flying into the parking lot of the sports center. The people coming out looked at me like I was a freak, and I crashed when I ran into the curb, but when I looked back behind me the guy was gone.

I never rode my bike alone again.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[diet_poison]

ohhh, that's gross D:

idk if I've had moments THAT creepy, but a few that were up there.

+Once while travelling in Costa Rica, I went to a "dance" in the town I was staying at. I was hoping it would be a real dance - like people would do real dances with each other...sigh, I was wrong. It was all just dirty dancing like usual. NOT my thing. So I'm standing awkwardly in a corner and these three guys come up to me and they were like "hi" and then one asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?" Stupid me didn't realize at first that they weren't just trying to make conversation, and answered truthfully, "Yes, but he's at home [in the States]." So then they basically asked me if I wanted to dance with them, "You in front, me behind," and when I realized what they were asking I was like ewwwwww DNW DNW and left. (At the time I was....not quite 17? and had literally zero physical/sexual experience of any kind unless you count really innocent cuddling) but anyway, it left me feeling...really creeped out
+My brother's friend decided he wanted to fuck me. He broke up with his girlfriend shortly after I broke up with my boyfriend (ironically, the same boyfriend I was speaking about in the last situation, and it was right before I went to Costa Rica for the second time - I was 20) and he started chatting me one night and I thought nothing of it, and then he said something about coming over to "say goodbye" to me before I left for my trip, which was weird since I didn't really know him. He started talking about how he wanted to "try stuff" like cuddling - he missed it, etc. I was like "I miss it too but not interested, I barely know you and I don't really want to do that with someone I'm not dating" and I told him not to bring it up again. Well, about a week later when I was in Costa Rica, he chatted me and started saying the same things, and then was like "Okay, honestly? I want you." And I was like "not okay, I told you to drop it," and blocked him. Only person I've ever blocked on FB. The best (worst) part? Found out after I got home that he'd been sending inappropriate texts to my then-13yo sister. I was appalled. We both talked to our mom who talked to our dad who talked to my brother, and the two are no longer friends. not before my brother, who is kind of an ignoramus because he's 20-going-on-12 years old, made some nasty remarks to me about it.
+Just general stuff with people - I HATE it when people, especially older men, who I don't know touch me in any way, like put their hand on my back when walking by me, ew, I feel like I have to shake that off or something. I hate it when strange men call me "sweetheart". Those have happened to me more than once and they creep me the fuck out.

in case you can't tell, creepy people are basically one of my least favorite things, *ever*

And I hope I never get molested at a con. Because 1) ew, that would suck and 2) I'm the kind of person who would cause a scene. Which depending on the people...can make it look I'm my fault (blame the victim, etc.) I've never experienced that personally but I don't think I would handle it well. I'm going to Gen Con in like...two days. I'm not really worried - I'm careful, and I'm driving myself/not staying downtown (I live in Indy), and I'm not wearing anything really ~~slutty~~ (it's really horrible that that's even a factor, and let me be clear that I *do not* think that makes it a person's fault if she's molested), and I'm a pretty confident and bold person, but...I've also heard that Gen Con has basically no harassment policy. D:

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

When I was in my first year of uni, and still didn't know my way around very well, I met this creepy guy.

For some reason, I had this instant fear response towards him, and I had no idea why. Like the gut-clenching, holy-shit, ABORT ABORT ABORT kind of fear. (I was recovering from anxiety at the time, but I had never, ever reacted to anyone that way.)

I wasn't sure what it was at first - it was lots of little things.

The first time I met him busted out the charms and flattery, and was always complimenting me on my looks. He was also an arrogant liar - on the second meeting he claimed he drove an expensive sports car. University student? Jaguar? LOL OKAY.

The conversation would be really normal - and then he'd make a REALLY bizarre comment. Like "I hope you weren't avoiding me", or "People who take medecine for illness are just weak". Once he made this creepy, inappropriate sex-joke about my height.

Everything he did - the way he talked and walked and behaved - felt like acting. Ever hear the expression "his smile never reached his eyes"? LITERALLY that.

Anyway. I kept running into this guy. He would offer to show me around or walk me to my class, and then talk about himself the entire time.
One day I started getting a really bad migraine. I went to the bus stop to go home - and the creep was there.
For the entire. damn. bus ride he insisted on talking to me. And then when we got off, he asked me: "Want to go get a coffee?"

NO. NO I DO NO WANT A FUCKING COFFEE. THAT WILL MAKE MY MIGRAINE WORSE. KINDLY FUCK OFF.

Anyway, after that I avoided him, though I've still seen him around at cons. I shudder to think that he might have a girlfriend.

It was the summer right after I turned 12.

I'd just gotten out of swimming class and was waiting for the bus all by my lonesome when a tall, lanky guy sauntered into the bus shelter with me. He pulled out a polaroid photo of an exposed groin with blue jeans pulled down to the knees. He asked, "do you want to see more?"

I had no idea what the picture was. I knew I didn't want to talk to him any further so I said, "no thanks," and turned my back to him. I stared at his reflection in the glass until the bus arrived. He didn't get on.

I never reported this to the police. I didn't know what I saw until a few years later so I didn't know how bad it was. I want to be able to turn back time and tell my younger self to report the creep asap :/

Bonus story:

Two months later, my parents hired an Arab family to put in new carpets at home. The good-looking 20something-year-old son of the family asked me how to say "I love you" in my native language. I was naive so I told him. He spent the rest of the afternoon saying it to me and trying to teach me how to say it back in Arabic. Thank goodness my parents told him to leave me alone and they gave me busywork so I wouldn't be alone with him.

He came back the next day to do some touch-up work. I ignored him by playing video games. It was so awkward ,_,

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[partialsatyr]

not so much creepy as flat out weird. i was taking the bus home and about 15 minutes into the ride, a dude gets on holding two see-through garbage bags- one it each hand. he sits down a few rows ahead of me and to my right, so i get a good opportunity to see what he's carrying, since i'm nosy.
both bags are full of about dozen whole refridgerated chickens each, like the kind you pick up from the grocery store. dude was ready for about 2 dozen sunday dinners.

then there was the time a bus driver quizzed me about MMOs (which i know nothing about) because i "look like the kind of guy who spends a lot of time online"

as for creepy, there was the time somebody started coughing on my front door. not like coughing near it, he stopped, turned, and coughed on my door for a considerable length of time. i was able to look out the peep hole and see the inside of another man's mouth.

then there was the time i came out of my kitchen at midnight to see somebody peering in my front window, but i'm still not entirely over that.

all of these have happened within the past two months, i should mention.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[(Anonymous)]

Not terribly creepy because he was just gross but didn't actually try anything, but last term I have a classmate at University who was a 56 year old man who kept saying inappropriate things about the females students. Such as asking about my friends virginity (?), barging in conversations just to make a weird remark or politely inviting another friend to ride his car with him to the subway station so she didn't have to walk alone... ICK

By the end of the term we hated him and tried to avoid him, but he was clueless (besides, the last exam was multiple choice and he cheated coping everything from me, making me terrible nervous about the teacher seeing and blaming us both for his idiocy. ASSHOLE you already have one career! Why on Earth you decide to go back to Uni and then cheat in every test you can!)

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[(Anonymous)]

I haven't had creeper moments. It sounds like I've had a LOT of the 'beginning of creeper moments'- but I've never rejected anybody before.
I usually end up fucking the guy/gal... Uh, I guess I'm the only one who does this?

I feel kinda bad/slutty now. :(

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[(Anonymous)]

Once when I was around 12 I was with my dad at a coffee shop, and this guy wouldn't stop staring at me. I was really freaked out but didn't want to tell my dad. When we were about to leave he came to our table with a drawing of me and offered to sell it, thankfully my dad didn't accept xD
Afterward my dad explained that that was a thing people did at such places, hoping the person will be flattered and pay for the drawing but WTF it's still creepy to me, and thankfully that never happened again.

Re: Creepy/ awkward moments...

[elaminator]

This probably doesn't even compare to the other stories, but it was still awkward.

Basically, this lady at my local Walgreens is infatuated with me (I don't even shop there often!). I've been by with my parents before too so she recognizes them and always asks about me. Welp on my birthday when we're out together my mom randomly goes, "Let's go by Walgreens! That nice lady said you need to come by and see her," and I'm like "Oh Jesus no, why would you want that?" but I eventually cave because she wouldn't shut up about it and was guilt tripping me because the lady is so sweet and thoughtful and blah blah blah, she needed some lipstick anyway.

So in the middle of the store the lady is hugging me (PERSONAL SPACE, LADY), telling me how beautiful I am and how sweet I am but how I've been bad by not coming by more and that she'd have to spank me if I took so long again. Well that was weird even if she said it in a joking manner and I didn't even know what to say so I'm pretty sure I didn't say anything, but my mom laughed because apparently a much older woman saying this isn't creepy at all, so I leave as quickly as possible. But the next time my parents went in she bought me a card and gave it to them to pass along, and she had written something like "Happy birthday! I am lonely - come by and see me. Love you,” in it.

I have been avoiding that store like the plague.


Also, long story short: a lady from my former church is kinda creepily invested in me. Once she came by my house to try to get me back into church, but she said some upsetting shit (I'm not even getting into the details of those) and left me crying.

Edited to add: my dermatologist making a joke about getting me naked. I realize that he has a legitimate reason to want my clothes off, but gross.
