Q: Everyday when I take the bus home from school for the past 2 days I've seen some weird kid just walk around a park I pass on the way home that is near my stop and he walks then turns his head then walks to the sidewalk and starts staring at me and no one else seems to notice him he did the same thing Thursday and Friday and I'm afraid that when I have to tale the late bus Tuesday because of a club and the closest stop near my house will be that house and I will have to confront him should I beat him up? He looks 16 though so should I punch him and run away?
No need to resort to violence. And no, I would not advise confronting him.

I understand that the situation may make you feel a little uncomfortable but involving yourself any more that you have to, which is really none at all, will probably only make that worse.

And besides giving off something of a creepy vibe, what harm is he really causing you? The answer is none.

Now, if he where to come up to you and confront you in a harassing way, Then that's a different story. That's the only reason I would do anything at all. Perhaps your best bet there is to carry a legal container of pepper spay or something just in case.

But the bottom line is, if her's just staring and not actually doing anything, just let it be.


Thank you so much! It all worked out thanks to you! :)
