“Want some candy little girl?”

Have you ever been somewhere and saw someone that gave you a bad vibe? Maybe you got a cold chill; the hair on the back of your neck stood up, or your stomach flipped in a bad way; whatever it was that happened you knew that something was just not right. Your gut was telling you something, would you test it? Hopefully you avoid them. I have to admit I am leery of anyone that drives a van without windows. Profiling? Hell yes! To me, those vans scream child abductor or burglars.

I have learned over the years to trust my gut. I always listen to what my body and mind are trying to tell me. After learning to trust myself I think now I am a pretty good judge of character. Like a lot of people I learn from my mistakes. There have been times that I should have listened to what my gut said, didn’t, and had to deal with the repercussions; some minor, others quite serious. Needless to say, when I get a “feeling” about a situation or, more importantly a person, my guard goes up.  Makes sense huh?

So what is one to do when they have to deal with one of these people almost every day? I am faced with this challenge. I can’t pinpoint what it is, but I just don’t feel good about the person.  I don’t like being alone in a room with them. It isn’t that I don’t feel safe; in this situation I think I could take care of myself. I am not scared, but am definitely creeped the hell out. I don’t want to put a label on the person until I am certain just “what” it is about the.  When they come into the room, the boundaries of my personal space immediately expand. The person also has a habit of sneaking up behind me. Just purposefully standing there waiting for me to acknowledge them instead of speaking up to let me know they need something. It’s creepy and, in my opinion, rude. They cross the line with personal comments and suggestions; they clearly do not understand that some comments and conversations are best left amongst close friends.  So, I find myself in a shitty situation; I know what my gut tells me, but can’t avoid it. I can only keep interaction to a minimum. When I do have to interact with the person I find it extremely difficult to be friendly. I am quite certain I am coming across as a cold bitch at times. And yet, I cannot stop myself.  Ahhhh, what is a girl to do?

Goodnight Darling, MWAH!
