Creepy People

I only have one IRL creepy instance and it wasn't that bad, but it could've been MUCH worse. A few months ago, my friends and I went to a Dave and Busters in our prom dresses (we refused to go to our school's lame prom). One of my friends (I'll call her "Sis" for the sake of the story) and I broke off from the group to play air hockey. I was going over to the other side of the table so we could start playing when I saw a group of guys standing near the table. I tried to walk around them, but one of them said "Hey, what's the tiara for?" Obliviously I responded "Oh, my friends and I are here for prom." Next thing I know, Sis grabbed my wrist and pulled me away from them. She started asking me if I was okay. I'm still confused by her sudden concern, so I said "Yeah I'm fine, why?" Apparently they were starting to circle around me, and she pulled me away before anything could escalate. I still shudder to this day when I think of what they would've done to me had Sis not been there to save me. I'm more ashamed of the fact that I had no idea anything was going on than what actually happened.

I've had multiple guys creep on me irl, some experiences being worse than others that I'd rather not remember.

There's a different creepy experience that I'll never forget though. Basically my friend (I'll call her N) and I were on the bus home from uni and we saw a girl (let's call her A) there who my friend recognized, apparently it was a co-worker of hers from KFC (fast food chain) when she worked there. We chatted for a while during the bus ride before we all had to get off. That was the last time N saw A since she typically took different routes and didn't work in the same place anymore. On my way to school I realized A and I would take the same bus route on certain days (she lived in an apartment complex nearby) so we'd see each other and chat. Became somewhat of friends and A asked to add me to her phone contacts, I said sure. This went on for a few months with no problem. Eventually we stopped seeing each other on our way to class at all, since it was a different semester and our schedules changed. We never really kept in touch via text/calls or anything despite having added each other, it was only ever when we saw each other commuting in person.

A year or two later A texted me saying she wanted to talk to me. I said okay sure but asked if it can be via text first since I was busy. She calls instead, I don't pick up, and she leaves a voicemail with some weird message like, "I'm inviting you to a meeting at my house. This meeting is very important. Please come tomorrow at x time." I was like ???? Gave me a fright and I could not understand what the heck she was talking about. I then brought the weird message up with N who used to work with her, and she said she had no memory of this person whatsoever. And that's coming from someone with a very good memory who typically was the one reminding me of things.

I blocked A after that and was terrified about running into her for months after. Was afraid it was some cult or planned kidnapping thing or...something. or a ghost
 
Creepers never come to me for whatever reason

Sorta wish they would though, just so they're doing it to me instead of someone who is made uncomfortable by it

So I've gotten one on Pokecommunity for the first time.

Spoiler:


I don't understand if this is a bot or if it's simply a bored person. I noticed they showed up in my recent user list. I couldn't engage and check because they had been banned by the time I logged in.

I frequently see accounts on here getting banned after 5 or so posts, but they always articulate posts directly responding to threads. They never make flairs or avatars. I'm guessing this is something similar.
 
You all know this but a periodic reminder never hurts!

If someone PMs you with suspicious links or tries to arrange unsolicited contact then don't click, don't engage, and let one of your friendly neighbourhood staff members know! 😊

Yes this is true. No harm or negative influences intended with my post, i'm deeply sorry if it came off that way. It's just random curiosity from a curious person. I don't mean much by the questions either. It's just the urge of exploring, and the love of formulating things in my head.
