i'm female. it's a late night bus that i take after work.
last week, there was a driver at the wheel and another one standing at the front. he says the name of my stop, and i say uh... yeah... and walk past him. he follows me to my seat and says, "you live next to the ____, right?" announces it in front of everyone. keeps staring at me and looks like he's not going to leave until i give him an answer. he must've seen me walk in/out before, so if i lie, he's going to double down.
i see him again tonight, driving this time, and he stops the bus literally **right in front of my house**. he probably thinks he's doing me a favour, but i don't want to walk through the front door with everyone watching. so i just stand there outside like an idiot fiddling with my phone. i should've went somewhere else and came back, but i figured he's gonna drive to the next stop anyway, right?
no. he waits and asks why i'm not going in. 💀 he eventually takes the hint and leaves, but dude... what the hell?
