the face she makes when she’s hungry.
My cat is a flower pot
“I lived in my own apartment in university and the summer after I moved in is when daily harassment started. Some guy in my complex had said several things to me before that made me feel uncomfortable, but I brushed off as “harmless”. One day, I was 20/21, and I still had last night’s makeup still on, my hair was a mess, and I went out to my car to go run an errand. A guy living across from me followed me to my car, knocked on the window and said I needed to come to his place tonight, asked me where I worked, said he knew I come home early enough to pay him a visit tonight, and said that I can’t say no because he knew I didn’t have a man. He said he always watched who came in and out of my place and that I always had girls, but no men, so I didn’t have a boyfriend.
I was shocked and disgusted, so I just rolled up the window, left, and called my parents crying. He essentially just admitted that he was stalking me for awhile if he could be that specific about my daily routine and who visited.
I notified the police and management and no one would do anything.
After that encounter he would always stand outside when I came home from work or class and he would catcall me constantly. Even as much as saying things about how he won’t do anything to me … “yet”.
All of this accumulated into one night when I was having a bad day and couldn’t deal with his bullshit anymore. It was the Superbowl, him and his friends were drunk and grilling out, and when I walked by and he yelled “Hey sexy. You can’t keep ignoring me. I’ll get you somehow.” So I turned around and I told him to fuck off and leave me alone. He responded by assaulting me. Threatening to throw the hot coals from his grill on me. I called the police again, and again, they did absolutely nothing.
Luckily, I know I can hold my own. I’ve had extensive training as an MMA fighter, but that doesn’t mean I was any less frightened or disgusted. Especially with the police and management not doing anything to help. I ended up having several guy friends come over and spend time with me just so he’d see some men visiting me. In the end, my university’s victim advocate program is who helped the most and I was able to move out of my complex and away from him.
What was I wearing? It doesn’t fucking matter. I was cat called, stalked, and assaulted in my own apartment complex. Try and tell me that it was a compliment.”
