"I don't want to rely on guys sprinting out of nowhere to save me every time someone tries to put their hands on me" - QawemeHarassment - LEBANON (sitios de interés)

I was walking home from Hamra one night, around one am. I was alone, but I'd never had problems before. I was a few buildings past Captain's Cabin when a guy started following me. I have no idea where he came from, the street was pretty deserted. He kept a close distance behind me but I ignored it. After a few seconds he started trying to talk to me. I have no idea what he said, but he was trying to ask me something, and so I crossed the street to get away from him, thinking he'd get the point. He instead followed me to the other side. I picked up my pace but he came right behind me and tried to grab me. I was so shocked and scared that I screamed, really loudly. The entire neighborhood probably heard me. He was shocked too when I did that, so shocked that he jumped like ten feet and when I looked he was in the middle of the street looking at me like I was insane. He started running. I was a bit shaken but mostly just confused when I started walking home again.
