I was going to pick up a parcel and a random woman crossed the street towards me and said I called her over. I told her I didn't and she started arguing that I did, so I just crossed the street myself and went into the building.
I stayed there a while and she was still fucking standing there when I left, so I took a different route out of the area.
And I know someone would say it - yes, I'd love to have hit her for trying, but self defence usually doesn't work when claimed against the "better halves". Fleeing is the only option.
I'm always skeptical around this things, maybe because my highschool was in a bad area and stuff like this happened regularly.
They would find a stupid reason to talk to you and then try to run with your phone or watch or wallet. To my shame it happened to me twice.
It would make sense that women would start doing it as well since women seem less of a danger.
I do not think you were paranoid, if she came to you with a made up reason to start a conversation means you were a mark.
At least someone believes me.
