I went to the doctor since I've been sick for two weeks now, my entire break seeing my family has sucked, and now my ribs are very sore from all this coughing. It hurts so much that I feel like crying every time I cough, and I can hardly walk now. I have some prescription from the doc, but it hasn't started actually doing anything yet :(

My boss went through the accounts for the past two years, and realized that he didn't actually earn zip.

This doesn't bode well for me.

Worst first date ever. He put his hand down the back of my pants. I pointed my taser right on top of his crotch. He stopped and I ran. :(

My life would be so much easier if I liked girls. Gross sexual battery makes for a great night.... First date. Really?
I realize that having pulled the trigger would have introduced a number of legal complications that you are more aware of than I am, but I can't help but think of it as a somewhat karmatic response.

It could partially be covered under self defense, no?


Also, if you did pull the trigger, there's a good chance you could be shocked too xD

Agreed.

I know I could've gotten myself out of anything law related. That's not the issue. The issue is I don't want anyone to know I'm gay/trans or whatever. Filing a police report about this would be a surefire way to have that happen. I feel pissed and sad and violated and used, and a definite lack of happy. Part of me thinks shocking myself would've been worth it to get him at that point. Next time, just gun....

The answer is clear, bullet to the crotch.

Why would filing a police report for this cause anyone to know you are gay/trans? o_o
I don't understand...

Because he was on a date with a man? And I'm assuming that Truean physically looks like a man...

Yes basically, and unfortunately, because the cruelest thing in the world is humanity.

That's ok. This is one of those things I realize and expect straight people not to understand about being closeted and gay/trans.

Some more minor sadness:

I have to  translate about 9900 characters (or half that of individual letters, because two characters is one letter) into English, and 8753 after 4 hours, mainly because I couldn't concentrate Dx

I think I'm going to miss my deadline today...

I'm sorry, that sounds kinda bad. What can I say? Hopefully just keep chipping away at it bit by bit.

Sorry about the date, Truean. I know that some people are more open about broaching intimacy than others... and know a fair number of people who are used to sleeping with others prior to that whole "getting to know one another" stage. He might have been used to quick hookups, and odds are was looking primarily for that, rather than a relationship.

Now, I don't have the full context, but I think the threat of crotch-tasering might have been a tad overreactive. It might have been enough to have taken his hand off you, said no, briefly explain your stance, and tried to move on... but judging by what you've said the guy was probably not worth it. Just something to keep in mind for the future?
