Hello everyone,
I'm only young, 19, and with no desire to have children, but I'm a long time lurker as I'm a feminist and love this site for being a safe space for women. I've always been content with lurking but today something happened that made me think I should ask for your thoughts.
I'm a student, and I usually get the tram home after class, however today there was an issue at one of the stations, meaning I had to get a cab home instead. So I get in one and tell the driver to take me to the station I'd usually get off at, where I was meeting my dad. After some dithering and being asked if I had any money (which felt a little uncalled for), he started driving and then asked me where I was going afterwards. I replied 'home'. He then asked me 'where is home?', to which I asked 'why?'. He didn't seem to have an answer to that and I was incredibly uncomfortable, and told him to let me out of the car because of this, which he did. He didn't apologise or give my discomfort much acknowledgement.
My mum says it was just conversation but I felt so uncomfortable being asked for information like that when I only asked to be taken to the station. Something just told me to get out of there so I did. It really shook me, even if in writing it doesn't seem so bad. Perhaps he was asking where I was going on the tram? But I just panicked and didn't want to be in a confined space with him on my own.
So WIBU to have got upset over this and asked him to let me out? I need to know if I was exaggerating or not!
