I'll put this In more detail and also I feel better yeah!

I have seen this guy before and waved but never have I been approached by him

So walking with therapy dog to store I visit regularly

Go in look pants,jackets,shirts around with dog I'm doing good pretty familiar with the store go over to get bras walk over to shoes guy walks over asks how I'm doing Jokingly say surviving he moves in closer I'm holding bras and one hand and my dog in the other. Kind of uncontrollable holding bras and talking to him anxiety sets in a little dog also know as Sis leans on me a little for comfort. He than he stand there looking at me in silence then I say Yeah...I'm fine he still stand there kind of like he's waiting for something I say great and awesome.He breaks from the silence and reply's good I look at the shoes thinking the conversation was over 6/10 uncomfortable Sis has put herself in between me and the guy. She's being a good girl He then mentions he sees me around town walking with my dog I live in a small town so this is a normal thing to happen. I reply yeah i'v been walking a lot more lately he reply's yeah I'm very observant. 10/10 anxiety attack I don't reply He mentions my dog and how shes always with me. He moves in a little closer and says I know that problem because I'm really observant. I reply your really observant? He says I know your problem squeezes my shoulder and walks away. I am in a different world right now I got too a dressing room to try some stuff on Sis starts to whimper right as we walk in she does this and a kind of distraction for me. I'm dealing with adrenaline and the fight or flight response Sis is pretty well keeping my attention. I get through everything pay and leave I go get lunch and get a complement on my dog I don't say anything keeping in mind the other store just happened 12min ago. I sit down feel a bit better and play with Sis Then home.Then think of today's events.

You said (in this post or the other one) he is "a full grown man." How old are you?

lexlynn, why did Sis start whimpering as you walked into the dressing room?

I say follow your gut feeling. This man seems to be a little too observant in you.

There's being friendly and then there's possible stalking or infatuation.

Not to scare you but it happened to me when I was 17 and the co worker was a

man in his 30's. Tell a good friend, tell your parents. Let them know you feel

uncomfortable and since it's a place you frequent, you need to give him the cold

shoulder. Touching your shoulder was inappropriate. Stepping into your space

is crossing boundaries and Sis knew that before you did.

Stay safe. :) xx
