OVERLY
COMFORTABLE
I don’t
have the best social skills out there but I have enough to be civil and
interactive with the world out there. I am finding however that certain people
and all these people I have had such experiences with are black, are overly
comfortable being too comfortable with strangers. I don’t like being touched,
generally speaking. Even the people who are close to me sometimes when they
touch me unexpectedly I can react not in a positive way but a negative- why are
you in my space way. It's something I find I do. You can imagine my disgust and
perplexity when a stranger finds nothing wrong with extending their filthy
hands towards my body. I just do not get what kind of social etiquette it is to
touch people one has just met. The fact that I have a tattoo that is sometimes
visible just aggravates the chances of me being so violated. People just tend
to think it's okay to touch my tattoo and ask me what it means. Total strangers
I mean. I get you see it, I also see your hair, eyes, horrible outfit but no
one sees me walking around touching their fabrics and telling them they feel
like quality or fonkong do they!? People just need to chill, I get we are all
humans and humanity towards each other is essential but please let's keep to our
space. Part of social skills is knowing when to stay in your lane. It's much
like liking to know other people's business when really the details of their
lives will do very little to the quality of your own life. #PawsOff. A good
example is also men who go about grabbing people's hands, especially women in
an attempt to shela them. These men really need to learn how to get a woman's
attention because their behaviour of hand grabbing is rude and authoritative on
women's sovereignty.
Also
people who think just because I am short I can be used a a support structure
must fall too. They always act very surprised when you refuse to indulge them
like you were made short for the sole purpose of their being able to lean on
you. These people must fall I swear- I have no respect or patience for such
characters in fact, I abhor them. And then there are those people who will
greet you like a decent person upon first meet; but they never stop there, they
go on to want to know where you stay, where you are going, your number,
everything really that they can use to find you. My thing here is there are
just places where the people who congregate there are just too random for
anything. For all you know you could be giving your details to a stalker,
killer or rapist. The world is full of sick bastards out there so people please
don’t give me a stank eye because I refused to tell you where I was going, it's
not in my best interests to do so. Talk about the weather or the news then I
can engage you fully but anything personal, wooo shem! I will not divulge. I
speak from experience as I almost had a fatal encounter on the account of
trusting a stranger who seemed harmless. But then again I must say observe
where you are ( location) and pay very strict attention to what they say about
themselves. Any gut feeling that tells you to not trust a stranger who looks
harmless, listen very attentively and find a quick escape. As a people I feel
we just need to learn boundaries.
I swear you live in a weird world #Respek to the weird encounters.
