On my walk home today, I was confronted by a random stranger who made an unusual request.
For the sake of sake-ness let’s call him Henry.
Henry is an international student who wanted a hug!
I was quite taken aback by this…`
Particularly as he vocalised his desperate desire to be close to a `girl’s body?’
I shook his hand instead; bidding him farewell before power-walking away, unsure if I had done the right thing… but convinced that in this day and age no-one can be trusted.
Perhaps I read too many news reports about rapists, stalkers and murderers…
Would you have hugged Henry?
Is a free hug too much to ask of a complete stranger?
Am I a horrible person for not hugging a huggless fellow human being?
I’m sure I’ve already told you this, lady, but anecdotal evidence suggests that you attract boys of a freaky kind.
That is all.
I know. Do you think there’s a support group?
Oh, I sincerely hope so. Especially since we both seem to attract the undesirables!
There is a support group. It’s hosted in my living room.
Somehow i missed the point. Probably lost in translation
Anyway … nice blog to visit.
cheers, Lancastrian!!
