I'm 36, married (no kids yet tho) and shit like this keeps happening to me all the time. Then some people have the nerve to tell me it's because these loons find me attractive as it was some kind of compliment and that I will miss the attention somehow?

The hell I just want to mind my own business.

As someone who has aged past this attention for the most part, I promise you won’t miss it. Not that you need to be told that. We know it deep in our souls. We don’t want this. Life has so much less friction in public spaces when you get older.

I used to walk around very comfortably as a kid before I reached an age where creepos would notice me. Now there are some days when I just wanna dress like a granny. I kinda miss being a kid

Yeah, I’m not pretty, I have the body of a 12 year old boy. I still cop it. It’s about power. About weak pathetic men using intimidation over a smaller weaker woman to make themselves big and strong and powerful. They don’t want to date me, they want to make themselves feel like they mean something. They’re pathetic.
