a brief bit of background information. apparently wooded areas with parking lots are prominent homosexual hangouts. it was true when i lived up north, i'm reasonably certain that it's the truth down south as well, if not everywhere. i've heard the same thing about rest stops. anyway, here's my story of a possible encounter with someone looking for random sex in the woods. as i pulled into a parking lot that leads to some trails on a local mountain, i noticed someone leaving but stopping and parking again after locking eyes with me and giving me a smile. he parked at the very end of the lot, so i kept driving and parked at the opposite end, as far away as possible. i decided to stay in my car for a bit because i was high and pretty paranoid of who i might run into while walking. usually the place is totally empty and i can walk around without a care in the world. before i know it the guy who had re-parked was walking down a trail that led right to where my car was parked. this guy clearly knows the mountain fairly well if he can walk up one side of it and come back down another side trail right to my car. i noticed him looking at me so i tried to mind my own business hoping he would keep walking passed. this is where it gets weird. borderline disturbing even. the guy comes straight to my window and motions for me to roll it down so we can talk. at first i thought he might be some sort of authority at the mountain so i rolled it down and he immediately says "wow! you look young. how old are you?" to which i responded "i'm 20" and he got very excited and said "oh, so your old enough" and gives me a very creepish smile, revealing his stained teeth. he then asked what i was doing so i replied simply that i was just enjoying the atmosphere and listening to some music. he seemed to take this as sort of an opening so he said "well, mind if i come sit in your car and listen to music with you?" so now i'm freaking out thinking whether or not i should take a chance and try to be a nice guy and let this weirdo come sit and talk in my car, or get the hell out of here before i get propositioned for gay sex or straight up raped. i've picked up hitch hikers before but i always try to use my gut as an indicator and this guy was giving me plain creepy vibes. strangers with candyish type vibes. i decided against it and told the guy that i was about to leave so it wasn't a good time, but he lingered and kept asking me if i came to the mountain a lot, and if i always come alone or if i come to meet anyone. dude plain creeped me out. wanted a lot of strange information. didn't even ask my name. i guess it wasn't as important as my age or if i usually come to the mountain alone. i can't decide whether or not i'm the asshole for mistrusting the guy who for all i know just wanted to talk to someone and be friendly, or if he is just a creepy old dude who lurks around the mountain looking for potential sex partners. maybe i'm just paranoid because this isn't the first time a creepy older guy has tried to get me to come be alone with them in the woods. i just can't really believe that trying to get into a car with a young guy who is barely half your age is innocent at all. i don't like to judge people so harshly but this guy was too weird. maybe i should stop going to the woods alone lol.
I normally just read peoples posts, but I had to post for this one. That is fucking SCARY. You defiantly made the correct decision here. Some people are just fuckin weirdddddd.
Why the fuck would you trust someone like that? Or even pick up hitchhikers? You don't know what his intentions are, he probably did want to rape you or at least have a good ol' fashion gay ass poundin time. I wouldn't have even rolled my window down I would have peeled away that second. Do me a favour and don't pick up hitch hikers ever again. Use your head haha.
Hahaha! Good on ya for listening to your gut (intuition) and not letting him in your car. GROSS. You don't need some old troll all hitting on you. An awesome book about personal safety and deflecting bullshit so you can go on your merry way is Gavin De Becker's "The Gift of Fear." I think it should be required reading for high schoolers. Just good life skills, I think. Anyway, you used your instinct and good sense, and we're glad you're still here, and not in pieces strewn on the mountain!
that is one of the most sketchiest things i've ever heard of. i wouldn't have told him shit, i would've been like "sorry, but i was actually just about to leave" then speed the hell away. always trust your gut.
This hahaha. I would've freaked the fuck out. If I was high, I woulda sped away the second I saw him come down the trail haha.
He sounds a little creepy, but on the other hand, you're a single male, alone, in a wooded parking lot...
I think I would have asked him a few questions, be blunt and ask him what he is doing, if he brings up gay sex GTFO, but if he is trying to sell some sheets then yippee!
yes, wooded parking areas are homosexual hangouts.... theyre the bathouses of the 2000's for many, many, many, many gay men.
yea, he was lookin' for some ass. good choice on peacing out. and good for you for trusting your gut.
that guy wanted his dick in ur ass, or vice-versa, just sayin. glad u got out of it with no sodomy involved. and 2 who ever posted duelin banjo's, u made me crack uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuppppppppp lmao, u cant listen to that and not smile or laugh when u hear them pick up the pace. its epic.
