I’m annoyed I never gave a suitable response to this man, I was sat alone on a bench in my local town centre. This man comes along and asks if I mind him sitting alongside me explaining how he needed to rest his legs etc.
i said fine hoping he’d just leave me in peace, I wasn’t in the mood for idle chat. He then proceeds to go on about smokers outside pubs and how he couldn’t understand how anyone could smoke. He then says “do you smoke” I told him no but I used to. Now comes the insult……
”Yes I can tell, I can tell by your face you were a smoker”
Now I’m paranoid and feeling insecure about my looks…..all from a bloody stranger. 😡 Why would anyone say that. I’d never say that to someone. Maybe he started on the topic of smoking just so he could say that. But it’s unsettled me so if that’s what he wanted he’s achieved it. Sorry it’s not really an aibu but just wanted to vent.
