@A Cat No not me, I love water. What scares me about a cruise are the crowds lol....now I might go on one of those freighter cruises. I think cruises are really for romance though. If I was getting married or really involved, then I might actually consider it. But single people generally don't get anything out of a cruise

Bet that u would enjoy my super creepy horror story narrations a lot more!!

[@annie_xo]

I can relate so much to the first story, something very similar happened when I was on a family vacation in Turkey when I was 17. I was, and still am (although not as badly) too nice and have a hard time setting boundaries. Thankfully my mom realized what was going on and immediately shut it down. Please teach your daughters integrity and to stand up for themselves, and your sons to respect them. “No” is a full sentence, even if it’s said with body language.

[@raychwagner3657]

annie x I’m very proud of you and grateful for your mother being there for you

@Taps fan Was it a joke? I definitely didn't get the reference if it was, but I also stopped listening before it ended haha

[@paranoiarpincess]

@Taps fan THAT'S EXACTLY THE CONCLUSION I CAME TO! My fiance and I were laughing the entire time! I started by saying "omg imagine it was just a kid walking in on his parents having sex" and by the end I was saying "holy crap the dad was absolutely cheating on the mom!" Hahaha

[@cosmiccookie2854]

Story #2, if my roommates knew some guy was standing outside of my window unbeknownst to me I would be furious. We're moving furniture. 😂

[@b.lonewolf417]

Right? And that excuse of "we didn't want to worry you" is the biggest load of BS ever! Someone lurking outside my window is *absolutely* the kind of information I need to know, sooner rather than later!

[@hanahearts1015]

The girl in the second story is being stalked by Chad to the extend that she wanted her AM to hand her the phone to see if she recognizes his breathing. He literally moved into the same apartment complex and would stalk her every single day. But then she freaking swiped right on Tinder AGAIN to be nice? Oh and because m she hadn’t “put 2 and 2 together” at this point?!I’m screaming right now! 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀

[@Ophelia11]

Right? 😂 A lot of these story protagonists are idiots. Literal idiots. No nice way to say it.

[@SnowyWolborg]

Story 3: I'm sorry, but the whole "be nice and they'll go away" way of thinking pretty much never works. Being non confrontational is one thing, but when you refuse to put your foot down, pests will never know to stop.

[@venus_envy]

It's not "be nice and they'll go away" it's "be nice and maybe they won't hurt me because so far they aren't respecting my obvious reluctance/discomfort and they are way stronger than me and I'm afraid for my life because I know other women have been killed for less than rejecting a man."

[@SnowyWolborg]

@@venus_envy That's kind of a distinction without a difference. When annoying people like that are not told to stop, their behavior will typically escalate because they have not been vocally told they are being intrusive.

[@avamasquerade]

@@venus_envy "be nice and they'll go away" reads "easy mark." Predators test potential prey's boundaries and willingness to put up a fight for a reason.

The story where the person was out for about 10 minutes while watching tv definitely had a seizure.

[@VegemiteQueen1]

Last story had me rolling even before it started revealing itself, massive props to whoever wrote that.

[@mayaline9002]

Okay that dad sounds creepy and abusive in the last story. I think he was up to something and didn’t want the kid to tell..

[@paranoiarpincess]

Listen to it again with "the dad is cheating on the mom, and the kid walked in on it" in mind... it puts everything into perspective.

Jason jamrs I definitely have a new outlook on the ppl around me. I still try to see the best in ppl, and I don’t hesitate to be kind to a stranger, but I’m definitely always alert and watching out for odd behaviors. This experience taught me a valuable lesson indeed

[@witchofmisery8827]

If you run away you hurt a good persons feelings but they will understand, you run away from a bad person you live longer.

[@LadyAstarionAncunin]

@@jasonjamrs7413 The Gift of Fear is a book that illustrates that very well. Also, humans don't realize that we have a superpower/spidey sense in that we can sense when things are off. But the majority of these stories are people ignoring this power. It's essentially our subconscious working and altering us to things, but "I didn't think anything of it" is one of the top sentences in these stories.

[@annie_xo]

Or “creepy guys refusing to accept rejection and not respecting boundaries”

[@amypena1342]

annie x agreed. Creepy guys do not accept rejection and do not respect boundaries. That being said, the girls in these stories admit to being “too nice”. They didn’t set any boundaries and they never actually rejected the creepy guys. So yeah, “girls making poor choices.” is an apt title.

[@ross-ij6qn]

annie x what boundaries are you talking about? the girls never set any lmao

[@Ophelia11]

Half these "creepy" stories from reddit happen as a result of the protagonists (male or female) being idiots.

[@debrose3190]

Ironically, the whole "oh you're mad let me buy you a gift" thing is my "Boyfriend" and it pisses me off. He even avoids confrontations and makes it seem like im the one being melodramatic and how unnecessary it is, even though he sits there and gives me a thousand reasons to be mad. And to top it, I've tried to leave him several times and he comes to my house, blows my phone up, and begs me to come back because I can't leave him and he needs me for himself. Yet he gives me nothing in return besides materialistic shite that I don't want, and makes me do everything im uncomfortable with.

They won't ever change.. If you're in this situation plz get out as soon as you can.. Your life may depend on it.. My heart goes out to all of those who are going through this situation.. I'm dead serious too, it literally gave me ptsd.. (Thankfully, much like you, I also am clean and have been for yrs, have a child and a fiance that is definitely a MAJOR upgrade...)

Story 6: what you experienced can be either you mid-drifting into REM sleep suddenly (which i caught myself doing a lot) or being exposed to something else going on in your soul. Basically when you sleep, your carnal sense are shut off ... so... it's 50/50. I'm no stranger to this ( i have episodes weekly on average), but it's nothing too dangerous. The worst you can get is a bad case of vertigo or a surreality. However, I advise to be vigilant and don't get cocky with this new found aspect; just a simply weird "muscle" that can and should be exercised in a healthy way. Even though i have dealt with this since childhood, i am NO expert. I am still learning, but hopefully this gets some weight off your shoulders. Story 9: Ironically, according to Judaism, water is *usually* symbolic of the abyss or hell, & oil represents light (empathy), the anointing of God. Perhaps that's why the haunted was freaking out... I don't know... but don't take my words as gospel, please... I'm still learning. Just put pin on it.
