I was walking past this restaurant earlier on today and a short man with a beard came hurtling out of the door right on top of me. I thought nothing of it and veered out of his way to avoid a harsh collision. However, this person then followed me up the road touching my hand with his as I walked in front of him. He then attempted to rub himself on me, which I managed to avoid.
Utterly confounded, I turned around to demand what he was doing, but he ran off into the nearest shop! A grown man acting in such a way! It was then I realised that I had actually been targeted, perhaps for the way I look? I eventually tracked him down to this restaurant, which he had run back to while I was in other shops looking for him, a chef and a woman were trying to distract me from confronting him, which makes the situation even more suspicious.
I told him in no uncertain terms that I did not appreciate his attention and found his deviant behaviour disgusting. I was made to feel that I should welcome this attention? I would be quite wary of leaving other females alone with him, partcularly where you have another woman working with him that supports this unacceptable behaviour.
And as to the way I look sir, well if people such as myself offend you, perhaps you should move....
