I’ve always felt uneasy around old women who can’t control their urge to gab your arm or get uncomfortably close. Quite frankly if an old man had done that to a girl my age (23) it would likely enrage bystanders.
So today I was checking the mail and there was this old lady that always seems to run into my wife and I, and we know her only as that odd woman that keeps calling our son a “little Dutch boy”. Needless to say I think this woman has no filter whatsoever.
She decided to comment on how I have such nice hair for a boy (don’t fkin call me boy I’m 23) and I guess she decided to grab my arm and since this wasn’t church I just gently jerked away and asked her not to touch me. Then she noticed my long hair was stuck under my jacket she tried reaching for my hair and said let me fix your hair. I thought it was basic manners to not touch people’s f*cking hair. And that’s a huge trigger for me. I only let my wife touch my hair. So I sharply told her not to touch me and had to push her hands out of the way. She cannot take a hint. after that I kept her in my peripheral vision just in case she decided to step toward me again. Unfortunately I had to stay in line to pick up a parcel otherwise I would have run out of there.
Idk. I think I composed myself very well this time. Last time some guy messed with my hair I straight up threatened the guy.
Am I the only one that’s really triggered by grabby old women?
