Today as I sitting having a break from wrestling my way thru a seething mass of sweaty humanity, I was threatened with violence! Only now, have I stopped shaking and trying to convince myself that the eejit had got her wires crossed..no your ears aren't being decieved HER...I expect abuse and grief its part of being so different but to be threatened by a female for simply being me is beyond the pale! I have never hit or threatened any woman with violence the very idea sickens me...there you have it I just have to hope that she was mistaken or take the blows like a man
my dear fellow,
i am so dredfully sorry to here that. did she give a reason? i don't quite know why i think this Alex, but, you seem a good person whether deep down or not i neither no or care. i'm a usally good judge of character. so don't let me down. your a good person.

I wont Jack don't worry...no I think she deliberately targeted me ..as far as I can ascertain she was talking with some friends and I was looking in her direction, she may have been intimidated or worried by my supposed staring, but is that any justification for violence...cheers pal I do try but sometimes mate...
eeehm when you see a goth looking fellow staring at ya .. I dunno, if I were a woman I might feel unconfortable, although why blind people would be staring at someone is kind of strange I guess.
How the simplest things can give you a fright. For fucks sake, toughen up!
well how strange ... and b you make a valid point. someone who is blind wouldn't be staring at someone, or neessarily even be assumed to be staring ...
Ww you would perhaps be frightened if you had suffered a physical beathing...ohh I forgot your girlfriend has made sure your used to it...
Now that is a bit too harsh. Blind peopole can stair. Of course not intentially, but ... they can, I know from own experiences. And, I would be afraid in that case, as well.
So, blind people can stare but can they stare at someone's face or person on a crowded street, and why in the world would they do that if not to invoke some type of reaction, iin one to one situations blind people can stare, yes but staring in the sense that sighted people notice a stare from within a crowd is different.
agree with wildebrew on this one. you couldn't stare directly at someone through a crowd of people, to the extent that you caused that person to attack you physically.
hmmm, when I'm out a club or something I am always scared that I am staring at someone and they may feel offended! I mean you may not realize you are doing it, but it is a possibility! smile- angel
possibly but invariably a woman isn't going to go and threaten a man with violence if she feels intimidated is she. as a rule she would turn and walk away. perhaps say .. ooh that guy is freaking me out, but if she thought goblin was staring she wouldn't have realized he couldn't see her
oh yeah, i don't believe any of that. i was just saying it is possible to stare and not know you are doing it! lol! I couldn't see a girl doing that either. Unless, the public sees ghoblin as most do on this site! hehehehehehehehe! smile- angel
hehehehehehehehehe well I imagine that is highly likely, grin.
or there is the other alternative, actually, the woman was me! i just couldn't take any more ... grin.

Goblin, My girlfriend has never given me a beating, though you proove my point by considering a minor slap to be a vicious assault. If you can't take been threatened with violence, I suggest you go to some institution where you'll get protection from the outside world. Like it or not, it's likely that at some point in your life you're going to be threatened with violence. You need to stop been such a wining cry-baby and start been a man! In other words, you need to stop ben scared of such little things.
I have been hammered pal and I mean bloody hammered when you are in hospital with nasty injuries perhaps you will be frightened by the next threat of violence....
WEll I think you can get through life without any violence whatsoever, it's a lifestyle you choose, friends, hobbies etc that determines how vulnerable you are to such things. Apparently goblin chooses the goth crowd, s&m and appears to be in risk of being beaten by lots of peopple, stalked by his friends, beaten up by his friends ex's and people he manages to stare at in the crowd, if he truly wanted to avoid such things he'd change his life style and friends group, so it's just a part of what he chooses to be. I would not stay with a partner who slapped me, not even once and that'll never change and I would not do that to anyone either, needlesss to say.
yeh I agree totally. if you choose to live your life in a certain way, then sometimes that will have consequences. if for instance you choose to become a prostitute you are more subject to violence than if you choose to be a housewife ... etc etc. I too would never stay with someone who slapped me and by the same token I'd never do it to anyone.
show me your friends and I'll show you your future!
That's very profound I like it...
Um how can blind people stare? I may have a look on my face and turn toward the person but I don't call that staring. I just don't see how it can be done.
somtimes people do that but to me its meaningless. cause im not seeing there faces so. that doesn't mean anything to me really.
well, when my eyes are open, and I don't move people assume im staring but not realy. If they assume that they ask me why im staring into space. I often do that
i often do that with no intention. so i think that staring for me has to do with what you see.
I get told that I do stare... so then I try to make sure no one can think that I am staring at them by looking down. Then I get told not to hang my head... *sigh*
Big "hugs" anyway Goblin - and if you don't want hugs - then lots of positive thoughts !! LOL *smiles*
well, I rather stare into space than at someone and wait till that person acts up.
mom says i stare at the sky.
but to me its meaningless like I said in the above posts.
Well I can't see well and my eyes go pretty much where they want and I have been told that I look at times Like i'm staring at some one. My daughter is also blind and if she is listening to someone she does stare in their direction and it really does look like she's looking at them. She aslos has a sort of a don't mess with me look that can be unverving and I'm sure if I added goth to it it would be that much more. Can't imagine what Alex looks like but if he's a big man as in tall and large framed with the added goth look I can see it scaring some one. But there is never any reason for anything physical. That is just wrong. I'm guessing you carry a cane so that would be enough to know that you are no harm.
Some people are just stupid. Sadly my daughter will have to deal with the same I'm sure with her need to be different.
Why in god's name would anyone want to threaten you?
You seem like a genuine person, and if I were you, I'd just let it ride. However, I must admit that being threatened is not plesent in the least.

Although I ment what I said in my previous post, it would seem, that after reading some of your many posts, Alex, perhaps you just need to grow a thicker skin, and stop being such a drama queen, yes, I said a drama queen.
You whine, complain, and bitch at others if they post even the slightest mention of having a bad day, or that life as they know it is a bit hard for them right now, but you expect others to read, and feel some sort of sympathy for you.
If you can't take the heat, get the hell out of the kitchen!!!!!
