At intermission, he offered me a glass of wine. I bolted to the bathroom. Was I in danger? Ask Ellie
I’m a woman whose close colleague suddenly learned her mother who lives overseas was very ill and needed her to visit for at least a week. While rushing to organize her flight, my friend handed me two tickets for a play opening a couple of nights later, meant for herself and a friend. She then hurried out the door.
Towards the play’s obvious ending, I stood up abruptly, moved to the aisle, muttering, “Sorry, sorry,” and quickly found an Uber outside. I get it that today’s busy urban neighbourhoods do present some worrisome situations, and anyone skittish on their own should be thoughtful of where they go alone and under what circumstances.
I’m also hoping for your sake that, while some caution is wise when meeting an unexpected stranger, it’s equally important to convey your own self-confidence, and recognize the difference between an aggressive interloper and someone whose seat was, accidentally, next to yours. However, if you’re past danger triggers your fears, a consult with a therapist would be very helpful.
