Quick background:

Travelling. Staying in a hostel dorm room.

Creepy guy in dorm room been generally creepy the last few days. Staring a lot, asking a lot of questions about where I'm going etc.

This morning and again this evening I suspected that he might have tried to touch me (not sexually, just touching my foot and hair) but I didn't see anything so wasn't sure. Then about 20 minutes ago I was pretending to be asleep and I fucking caught him trying to touch my foot again!!

What do I do now? I don't want to go back to sleep knowing that he's probably going to try and stroke my foot again, but what can I do at this late hour without waking everyone else up? Can I move rooms? Or get him kicked out? So fucking angry, I leave and 7am and am fucking knackered I really wanted to sleep!

Ugh, go and get a different room? Surely there's a manager around?

Go to the front desk and report it.

Tell him firmly that if he touches you again you will break his balls, then go and demand a change of room.

Agree with pps. At least get yourself a locked door away from that man and tell staff. Flowers

Easy just kick him with the stroked foot. He won't be stroking again and yes the pun is get him kicked out

Who else is in your room with you? I thought dorms would be single sex, tbh.

I've done my fair share of hostel living and life's way too short to put up with dickheads like that. I'd kick up a fuss and wake the whole damn dorm up if I had to- yours may not have been the only foot he's been touching after all!

Also, the touching may not be sexual to you, but it could well be to him!

Some are single sex imperial but this one is mixed. There are 6 others but they are all asleep! I'm going to reception and asking to change rooms, not staying here to get touched in my sleep!

Are you in a hosts that's part of a group? Like YHA or HI? If so they should take care of you, they tend to take things like this pretty seriously

Get angry. Get loud. Get moved. He is touching you without your consent. He should be ejected.

Scream. Let all those other people know. Shout something.

I've spoken to reception, they are getting security to kick him out. I'm waiting in the lobby until he's gone, so glad! I'm shaking and feel sick, I woke up to see him standing over me. Now it's being sorted at least I'll be able to get some sleep Smile

Well done for standing up to the creep!

Urgh. I'm glad they are taking it seriously, but please be wary when you leave tomorrow morning. Might he know anything about your future plans? If so, would you feel better if you changed your plans?

Well done for reporting it - you did exactly the right thing in a horrible situation. Hope you feel better soon and get a good night's sleep now.

sound a bit unsafe sharing a mixed dorm with people you don't know. Glad they threw him out.

I've stayed in mixed dorms while travelling (alone) a fair bit, never had a problem. They're only unsafe when you get weird creepers like this which isn't the norm.

Stay safe OP
