Harassment is not sexy...just so ya know

Current mood: annoyed

I gotta say, sometimes I forget how many friends I actually have, until it comes down to needin something. I was at the bar tonight hangin out and I went with one of my friends from out of town. We had a good catch-up and then she went to see her other friends that she hasn't seen in a while. It was nice seeing that she's pretty solid these days. I had a really good time considering I was there basically alone after that. I had just bought a new dress and was rockin it tonight. Everybody seemed to really like it. I felt pretty good myself as well. :) So it's all fun and games up until someone thinks they're gonna get more than this chick is willing to offer. There were a couple of guys that decided to show interest in me...which is flattering and I wouldn't care, but they wouldn't let up...at all. I hate being put on the spot to the point that I feel trapped. Thank GOD my dance partner saw me getting uncomfortable and came over to rescue me. I stayed pretty close to him and his dad after that to avoid these other men. This is when I got my dancin in :) It's so fun dancin with him, you don't even know :)

All was well until I went to pay my tab and leave.

I hugged everyone...well made an attempt. I know alot of people that hang out there and am real close to all of the workers. I walked out and started to my car and one of the guys decided to follow me. Of course it would be the drunk one that wouldn't let me have any breathing room in the bar. I opened my car door and he put his hand inside it and said, "I'm not gonna take advantage of you. Where do you live". I laughed and told him that there was no way in hell I would tell him where I lived. But then he started prying and trying to convince me to go with him. The bouncers...my friends...saw this happening and were already on their way to save me. That's no joke, they were not happy with this guy. I had one at my side, and two on either side of him...then the others came and got in between us and backed him away from me. They got him into a cab finally and stood with me until the coast was clear and then my friend that had saved me earlier came over and stood with me for a while to make sure I was alright. I was feeling pretty helpless and at the same time, cared for in so many senses. With good friends, what else do I need? I'm set...I gotta admit, even though I was not keen with the situation...I sure do appreciate great friends and know I'm safe no matter what the case. This is how I can hold my head high and go to this bar alone. I love it. I love my friends. There is no excuse for that type of harassment. It's not attractive and that's no way to treat a lady. Which is what I felt like in my dress and heels all fancied up. Reguardless of what I was wearing...he shouldn't have treated me like a 2 dollar hooker. He's lucky my best friend wasn't there...cuz he woulda had his ass handed to him for basically stalking me and not letting up. I did see my friends I was kickin it with at the bar start over my way too..they did not go unseen, they were there for me too. I know who they are, and I will remember now that I DO have great friends and they are appreciated to the fullest.
