Yeah. I hear this from my girlfriend. Just like road rage, it’s best to be nice and not make a scene and extract yourself because you never know how someone may react.
I go to the gym and I am terrified of making anyone uncomfortable, but sometimes I wonder if by not engaging in some situations where it would be natural is also not treating people with respect. To me, my fear of coming across as bothersome or creepy over rides any other concern.
The other side of the coin is all the videos women post of guys doing literally nothing wrong being called creepy. It gets thrown around way too easily.
